Default wings and spoilers question

Whats the difference between a whales tail? and a saleen wing? Does anyone have a picture of them on their car or anything? Are these two wings the same thing?

Here are several pictures of the fox saleen wing, I have heard some people refer to it as a whale tail wing, but you would want to look at the 80-90 porsche 911 for what I remember being called a whale tail wing.

1986 Saleen


1988 Saleen


1990 Saleen


My brothers old 90 Saleen clone
