Default Rear Spoiler for hatch

Anybody use an aftermarket spoiler on the back of thier hatch? Does it do any good? I know wings work on coupes but I wonder if they are really functional on a hatchback.

Hate to break the news to ya--but wings (spoilers) don't really "work" on any type of car unless it's going about 120mph. 99% of the wings out there are just for aesthetic purposes only. As for them looking good on hatchbacks, i'm assuming you drive a 92...IMO, the benen CF duckbill looks top notch!

Rear wings on hatchs do prevent lift under hard deceleration.
