There's no better way of giving a Chevrolet vehicle sportier and more aggressive look than installing a Chevy spoiler. But aside from this aesthetic function, a Chevrolet spoiler actually serves stability and handling purposes.
A Chevy spoiler is an aerodynamic device that attaches to an automobile whose intended design function is to 'spoil' unfavorable air movement across a body of a car in motion. How do Chevrolet spoilers work? Basically, it disrupts the airflow going over a car. This disruption's primary purpose is to reduce the amount of lift naturally generated by the shape of the car. This results to an increase in the contact between the tire and the road surface which then causes increased traction. An increase traction allows a vehicle in motion to brake, turn, and accelerate with more stability.
There are various types of Chevy spoilers that are offered in the market nowadays. One type is the wing spoiler which is an airfoil suspended above the body of the vehicle. Another one is the lid spoiler (commonly trunk lid spoiler, lip spoiler, or boot lid spoiler) which is often a ridge of plastic or metal attached directly to the top of the trunk lid. A roof spoiler, on the other hand, is a small ridge of plastic or metal attached to the very back of the roof, usually just above the rear window. A splitter is a spoiler attached to the front bumper, very close to the road surface, sometimes known as a "front spoiler" or on stock or stock-appearing cars as an "air dam."
are made of different kinds of materials like fiber glass and lightweight steel. Nowadays, the most popular ones are made of a light and durable material called polyurethane. There are also a couple of spoilers which makes use a combination of two or three of different materials.
In buying a Chevrolet spoiler, one needs to take into consideration the shape and design of a vehicle. Choosing the right Chevy spoiler for a specific Chevrolet vehicle is crucial so as to get the best results.
