Dodge OEM Spoilers

Dodge OEM Spoilers are spoilers that are direct replacements for the spoilers that came on Dodge vehicles from the factory. Not all Dodge cars came with OEM spoilers so you can buy OEM style spoilers for your car as an aftermaket item.

Here is a little history about the company and OEM Spoilers

Dodge is a United States-based brand of automobiles, minivans, sport utility vehicles, and trucks, manufactured and marketed by Chrysler LLC in more than 60 different countries and territories worldwide. Founded as the Dodge Brothers Company in 1900 to supply parts and assemblies for Detroit's growing auto industry, Dodge began making its own complete vehicles in 1914. The brand was sold to Chrysler Corporation in 1928, passed through the short-lived DaimlerChrysler merger of 1998-2007 as part of the Chrysler Group, and is now a part of Chrysler LLC owned by Cerberus Capital Management, a private equity investment firm.

OEM spoilers are factory or factory style spoilers, to match the original OEM spoiler that would have being a factory option.

Sports cars are most commonly seen with front and rear OEM spoilers . Even though these vehicles typically have a more rigid chassis and a stiffer suspension to aid in high speed maneuverability, a spoiler can still be beneficial. This is because many vehicles have a fairly steep downward angle going from the rear edge of the roof down to the trunk or tail of the car. At high speeds, air flowing across the roof tumbles over this edge, causing air flow separation. The flow of air becomes turbulent and a low-pressure zone is created, increasing drag and instability . Adding a rear spoiler makes the air "see" a longer, gentler slope from the roof to the spoiler, which helps to delay flow separation. This decreases drag, increases fuel economy, and helps keep the rear window clean.

One of the best remembered factory / OEM spoilers is the wing on the Road Runing Superbird and the Charger Daytona in 1970.

The main design goal of the OEM spoilers in passenger vehicles is to reduce drag and increase fuel efficiency. While many often imitate wings and airfoils, these serve mostly decorative purposes. Passenger vehicles can be equipped with front and rear spoilers. Front spoilers, found beneath the bumper, are mainly used to direct air flow away from the tires to the underbody where the drag coefficient is less. Rear spoilers, which modify the transition in shape between the roof and the rear and the trunk and the rear, act to minimize the turbulence at the rear of the vehicle.

Also new vehicles today not only have rear OEM spoilers, the also have front OEM spoilers. The front spoilers, also known as an air dam helps to move the air over the front of the vehicle and not under the vehicle which create lift.
