The History of Car Spoilers
The introduction of the car spoiler begin in the 1960s,
when NASCAR automobiles still looked like what you drove
on the street.
In
1966, the Dodge Charger had a flatter nose and a long,
sloping roofline that seemed to make the car unstable
and lift at higher speeds. NASCAR was petitioned and
they allowed the Dodge teams to a piece of metal about
one-half to two inches high to the rear decklid.
This trapped air on the decklid and created downforce to
stabilize the car. It did not make the Dodge a
standout car, but other manufacturers did see the
aerodynamic perk of adding something to the back of the
car to increase downforce.
In
1968, Ford brought on the Ford Torino Talladega and the
Mercury Cyclone which had the same basic shape as the
Charger.
I n
1969, Richard Petty switched from Plymouth to Ford and
Chrysler decided to revamp their design to again become
a force in the NASCAR racing world.
The Dodge Daytona debuted late in 1969 and 2 of 4 big
races it appeared it. The Daytona had a high wing
and set new records.
Chrysler designed the 1970 Plymouth Superbird as a twin
to the Daytona. It did have a wider nose. It
was supposed to win Petty back to Chrysler and it did.
 The 1969 Mercury Cyclone Spoiler II came about because
of the need for a production design that was suitable for
racing. It had a slightly elongated body that set
it apart slightly from the Ford Torino Talladega.
The Cyclone Spoiler II was created primarily for racing,
but due to the rules of NASCAR, it had to be sold to the
public. It is believed that no more than 500 cars
were made.
NASCAR has regulations as to what spoiler size and shape
can be used on each track. These regulations are
not popular with the drivers who think the cars are too
loose, because of the lack of downforce the spoilers
provide on the race car.
Today, spoilers are mainly added to cars for improved style and
have little-to-no aerodynamic benefit. Some spoilers will even make the
aerodynamics worse. Spoilers for automobiles are confused with wings. Automotive wings are designed is to
lessen the effect of drag by generating
downforce as air passes around them and do not just disrupt the
airflow patterns.
Here are a few of the new car
spoilers available.

Car spoilers or wings can improve the looks of your car
and give
your car a more sporty look. We do sell car spoilers and car spoiler wings
with LED tail lights built in so you don't lose functionality. Many
states have laws stating that car spoilers cannot block the third brake
light. So, if you find all car spoilers for a particular car have a
brake light, it is probably because it must have a brake light in the
car spoiler. The finishing touch to any rear car spoiler is to
have our certified finishing department paint it to match your vehicle's
exterior. Quality is no accident here as we team up with the best in the
business to bring you a virtually ready-to-install product. All of our
car spoilers have a 3 year/36,000 mile warranty against manufacturer's defects.

When ordering a
Pre-Painted Car Spoiler please be sure to have the vehicle year,
make
and model along with the factory paint code and
color. When your
Pre-Painted Car Spoiler arrives, you will notice that the LED Light (if applicable) is already mounted
and pre-wired and the pedestal gaskets are installed! This will make your job that much quicker and easier.
After you choose your car spoiler, you MUST
confirm your Year, Make, Model
and the car's color code
in the shopping cart's
Delivery Instructions section.
We will not complete the order unless this information is supplied.
Car Spoiler Quality
While economy is important, a car spoiler is an investment. Make sure that the car spoiler
you buy is not imported from Asia. Many car spoilers are made with
inferior materials and are massed produced. Quality is often not
their primary focus. The paint on many car spoilers doesn't quite
match or may not be of the best quality. Be sure that your car
spoiler is of the highest quality and that the car spoiler will last for
the life of your car. Car spoilers that bow or crack or have a
poor paint job will reduce the value of your car if you ever sell it.
Our car spoilers are made with pride. We strive to ensure that
each car spoiler has an excellent paint job and will improve the looks
of your car.
So, do your homework and buy a car spoiler that will not make you
lose money.
