I would guess you're talking about Camaro? It's the width. The 69 spoiler is about 2" wider. I can measure my 68 in a while unless somebody know for sure...Joe

The easiest way to tell is the removable plate on each end of the spoiler. The 67 - early 69 is square. The later 69 is a stretched square (rectangle). As Joe said the later one is about 2" wider and it's visible in those plates.
