Original Subaru Spoilers

Why Choosing Quality Spoilers Matters for your Subaru

For your Subaru WRX, installing genuine spoilers is the best way to reduce lift and improve the high-speed handling of your vehicle. To ensure your exterior remains as clean as your airflow is smooth, make sure to find a factory-spec OEM spoiler for your vehicle.

Disadvantages of Aftermarket Spoilers

Be wary of generic spoilers that look authentic, for the following reasons:

1. Dangerous Trunk Lid Warping

Heavy, poorly balanced aftermarket spoilers can cause the metal of the trunk to flex and bend over time.

2. Persistent Moisture Intrusion

Generic mounting gaskets often fail, allowing rain to leak into the cargo area or trunk and ruin your expensive electronics.

3. Rapid Clear Coat Peeling

Budget spoilers often use inferior paint finishes that bubble and peel.

4. Intrusive Wind Whistling

Unrefined shapes create harmonic vibrations and loud whistling sounds.

5. Inaccurate Hardware Alignment

Universal kits often require drilling through structural braces, which can lead to permanent rust .

What is the weight limit for a trunk with a spoiler?

A genuine spoiler doesn't change the trunk's load limit, but it does require stronger struts to keep it open safely.
