It says this in the description:

"PLEASE NOTE THAT SINCE THE PICTURES WERE TAKEN THE AFTERMARKET EXHAUST "TIPS" AND AFTERMARKET REAR WING HAVE BEEN REMOVED TO MAKE THE CAR COMPLETELY STOCK LIKE IT SHOULD BE. If so desired, these accessories could be purchased at any aftermarket parts store. Where the rear spoiler was removed there are NO marks, it was held on with lateral pressure."

First of all it looks like our stock spoiler but I want to know what the "lateral pressure attachment" theory is. Sure beats bolts and crazy glue... Maybe it has something to do with atmospheric pressure. (Spoilers hold tighter to the trunk in Death Valley than they do in Denver?) Any engineering typoes out there who can explain this force?
You seem to be thinking 'atmospheric pressure.' I would imagine that 'lateral pressure' would mean it clamps on. But that sure does look like a Subaru spoiler, which bolts on last I checked.
