Default Tailgate ?

What is the plastic piece for on top of the tailgate? (The wide one that screws into the tailgate) The only thing I can think of, is a place to set your bee withouth it falling off.

Its called a tailgate spoiler as odd as that sounds... idk the part number.. but try to see if u can get one off an SS Silvy.. they look more sleek and not as wide... more sporty.

It's pretty handy when you haul lumber or overly long objects. No more scraped up paint and dents on the top of the tailgate.
