What should you consider before adding a car spoiler?

 If you're looking for an easy and affordable way to customize your ride, a car spoiler is a definite possibility. And not only will it take your Orlando Toyota's appearance up a notch, but it'll also improve performance. However, before you take the plunge, there are certain things you should take into consideration. Our Toyota of Orlando body shop experts are here to help - check out their recommendations below. 

Three things to think about before adding a car spoiler to your Orlando Toyota 

#1: Do research and make sure it aesthetically fits. Something may look good on paper (or on Instagram) but what counts is how it looks in real life. Do your research and explore car spoiler options. It's always a good idea to look at similar vehicles that have the spoiler you want, and look for the spoiler type in real life, too, so you can see what it'll look like on a day-to-day basis (without all those professional angles and filters applied to it). Car spoilers are a cool customization, but they can also look ridiculous if you're not careful. 

#2: Consider your car's paint color. You also have to think about the color of your current car when buying a spoiler. If you buy something that's SUPPOSED to be a different color or a car spoiler that is primed to be painted, you should be good to go. But be careful about buying a pre-painted spoiler. Remember that colors are specific to makes and models, and you don't want to end up stuck with a spoiler that clashes against the paint color you already have. 

#3: Know that you'll have to take care of it. Car spoilers are just like any other car part - they need to be cared for. And just like any other part, they can become damaged - even strong winds can do a number on them. Just know that you're adding an item to your car care list and be prepared to follow through with it to keep your entire vehicle in the best shape possible. 

The perks of adding a car spoiler 

But don't forget, there are definite perks to adding a car spoiler. Here are two things our Toyota of Orlando body shop techs love about these unique accessories: 

#1: They actually improve performance. Car spoilers catch the wind as you drive, and in turn, they push the rear of your car down to improve handling. It's like adding power and maneuverability to your Orlando Toyota without even touching anything under the hood! 

#2: There are so many options. Car spoiler options are endless and leave you with tons of ways to customize your ride to your personal preferences. Plus, there are a ton of pricepoints to choose from AND places to order from.
