Spoiling Your Ride

So you’ve decided that you want to add some more style to the back of your car. A great way to go about doing this would be to add a spoiler. Aftermarket spoilers come in a variety of shapes and sizes and many are custom fitting, meaning that they will be a great addition to your car or truck. With a great new spoiler on the back of your vehicle, you can be sure that your ride will look better than ever.

If you happen to drive a popular model of car or truck, you will find a greater variety of spoilers available for your vehicle. Don’t worry though, because even if yours isn’t the most popular on the road, there are also universal spoilers out there that are made to fit onto the back of any vehicle. If you do opt for a custom fit spoiler, it is best if you get one that will really compliment the style you are going for.

There are really three different styles of spoilers. The first is the trunk lid spoiler. Included in this type are two separate styles. The first style of trunk spoiler is what is commonly referred to as the lip spoiler. This is the type that looks much like a thin strip running across the lid of the trunk and it does not stick up very high. Many people who like a more subtle look are going to love this type of spoiler. The second type that goes right along with that one on the trunk is the high spoiler. These are the ones that are most common because they sit on top of the trunk and are raised in the air. Now depending on how visible you want your vehicle to be, you can get a slightly raised one or a really high one. Another choice that you have with this type is the ability to get a third brake light in the blade of the spoiler or not. The third brake light will add some more safety and a new look to the spoiler.

The third type of spoiler is the roof spoiler. These spoilers can most commonly be seen on minivans and hatchbacks, but they are slowly making their way onto cars as well. When they are installed on a car, they are placed directly above the rear window where the roof meets the glass. Not only will this keep the air flow over the back of the car smooth, it will add a little more shade for the back passengers when the sun is beating down on them. Roof spoilers are also going to cost less than a regular spoiler because they don’t have as much material associated with them.

Again, depending on the type of vehicle you drive, there are many different types and styles of spoilers available for you to choose from. The one that you choose is going to be dependant on the look you want from your car and the price that you are willing to pay. Adding any spoiler is one of the easiest ways to improve the looks of your car or truck easily and cheaply.
