added a rear spoiler to Volvo 940

A month ago I made a spoiler out of plastic and duct tape and learned that there is a lot of wind action at the rear of this tank. My son was filling up the gas tank and state trooper demanded he remove that spoiler this instant before it flew off the car.

Ever since, I've been looking for a suitable free material and came across this larger aluminum cookie pan. I liked it because it had nice smooth rolled edges and I did not want to split my head open with it while walking around the car at night. I can bend it up or down if the angle in the pictures does not look best. Check out the newly paint rear skirt also. Sc

Added some sides to the Cookie pan spoiler. I can't open the back hatch or it will fall out. Not sure if I should follow the sides down to the bumper. Sc

I wonder if a boat tail or those aero tabs would help any? :turtle:

It's a work in progress ;)

Any progress on your windscreen wiper deflectors? :rolleyes:

Yes wind screen spoiler is next on the agenda. Here is my latest mod. silver platter hubcaps from the Dollar store. I'm taking bets on how long they stay attached
