Default Opinions on Spoilers

Right now I have the factory Spoiler that comes with the truck. But, Im thinking about buying the Srt-10 spoiler for my truck. I wanna give my rear end that aggressive look. Here is the spoiler I'm interested in.

Do Yall Think It Will Look Good On My Truck?
I would have painted the same color as my truck.

You have a Dodge Ram, not a Dodge Neon. Leave it off IMO. Your truck looks good as it is.

the only time a spoiler looks good on a truck, is if its a sport truck (lowered) even then, its still iffy.

I think it would look good on yours. Your truck has a sporty 4x look. In the end, it's really about what you think looks best.

simple solution: buschwacker tailgate cap. i have the bedrail/tailgate caps on mine, love em. they come in smooth, ridged, or diamond finish.

edit: here you go.

Car type spoilers render your truck bed useless. Only time I think anyone should put a spoiler on a truck with a bed is if they have a hard tonneau cover where the spoiler lifts with the cover. Other than that...I'm in agreement with Weed. Your truck looks good as-is.
Although, it's all about what you like, just be aware if you use your bed for anything, you'll need to reach over the side of your truck more regularly....and thats a no-no with my truck. That's an easy way for some scratches...jacket zippers, belt buckles, buttons...etc


nice tails BTW. Did you install an oracle kit in them? Are those the pianted one's the guy is selling on ebay?

Good looking truck...I say leave the spoiler off and think about some kind of black bull/light bar. That would kick up the meanness a couple notches especially with those wheels and tires.
