spoiler

Explanation:
spoiler, also called fairing, is the metal or plastic panelling below a line level with the front and back axles of a vehicle. At the front, it serves to streamline the air flow around the vehicle and gives it certain style attractive to automobile aficionados. 'Levike' simply means a widening or spread of a detail, whether in apparel, curtain drapery, or a vehicle.
