Drag coefficient with OEM rear spoiler

[chimchim]

Anybody happen to know the drag coefficient of the 6th gen sedan with and without the OEM spoiler? I think I saw somewhere the sedan with no spoiler is 0.36. What is it with?

Im pretty sure the wing is essentially useless and just for looks, and prob wouldnt even factor into any considerations unless you were doing over 120

I'm sure you're right. But I guess I just needed someone to slap reasoning upside my head. There's a store over here who has it totally onsale for a PAINTED OEM spoiler for like $130. I'm so tempted.

Whoa! Do they have an online presence? I've been looking for an OEM painted spoiler, but they're all too damn expensive.

Higher... Even at a 0 degree angle producing no downforce it's still hanging out there creating drag. Got one of those WW1 biplane wings on the ass-end of your car? You might as well be towing a parachute.

Factory spoiler wouldn't even do that. It's purely cosmetic.

It might not create any useable downforce, but it will most definately cause turbulence (drag). Either way, if you like the look, then get it, if not, then don't.

You plan on doing any calculations with the Cd?
