OEM Spoilers & Wings

A spoiler or wing can improve the aerodynamics of any vehicle, not only helping it cut through wind resistance ("drag") and make the drive smoother, but also give it a more stylish look.

All About Vehicle Spoilers & Wings

A spoiler, you find one of a few places on your vehicle. If it's a car, like Toyota Camry or Honda Civic, it might have one either on its trunk, roof, hood, or rear end. If it's a truck, however -- one like Chevy Silverado 1500 -- it may have one either over its bed or on the roof of its cab.

A wing, on the other hand, is a larger, specially designed spoiler, usually of either whale-tail ("tea tray") type, or gurney-flap ("wickerbill"). It's something a sports car (think Ford Mustang) or, better yet, a supercar can have.

The Difference Between a Spoiler and a Wing

In contrast to a spoiler, a wing can increase downforce much more dramatically, and at higher speeds. This makes wings preferred exterior accessories for racing, as adding one is much better for a vehicle's stability and handling.

How to Install an Adhesive Spoiler on a Trunk

First, grab some paint prep (e.g., isopropyl alcohol) and a couple of cleaning cloths. Then, get your hands on some masking tape, a tape measure, and a little silicone-based sealing caulk. Clean the trunk lid before you start the project. Now, follow directions from your manufacturer on how to put the tape on and properly position and apply the spoiler; you should find them in your owner's documentation. For best results, install when the weather's warm and dry (in the mid-20s Celsius, preferably). You may need to let the adhesive set for 12 hours, minimum.
