there are a few different types you can get - dont get the cheap fibre glass, get the more expensive plastic version less britle.
They have been known to break off at high speeds, there is another post somewhere on SN showing how it has broken off. If you're gonna fix it on, dont use the tape the supplier provides. Key up the surface area and vortex diffuser and use the magic black gunk bodyshopes use.

The blades on the scoobyclinic vortex generator are much bigger than the ones that come on the actual Evo VG. Also the fins on the Mitsi one are angled where as on the Scoob they are all straight.
I had a colour coded VG on my Evo, can't really see it well but for your interest....

I have one on my car
I made extra sure the surfaces were clean, used the application tape provided and threw on a bit extra 3M tape and have not had any problems, even at high speed.
Thinking about it now though, a bit of that black gob stuff wouldnt be a bad idea, just to be extra safe!! DOH !!
