Aerodynamic apparatus

An aerodynamic apparatus for a vehicle, the aerodynamic apparatus comprising:

• a bonnet having a leading edge and a trailing edge;
• a bonnet spoiler having a leading edge and a trailing edge, and being positioned vertically above the bonnet and separated therefrom to form an airflow duct therebetween;
• and
• a grille comprising a trailing edge and a front face separated by a curved upper portion, wherein the trailing edge of the grille is positionable adjacent the leading edge of the bonnet,
• wherein the front face of the grille is substantially longitudinally aligned with the leading edge of the bonnet spoiler so that the leading edge of the bonnet spoiler lies in substantially the same plane as that defined by the front face of the grille and so that the trailing edge of the grille is longitudinally offset from the leading edge of the bonnet spoiler, and
• wherein the grille comprises a grille surround and a grille mesh and wherein a top of the grille surround is positionable in a corresponding formation formed in the bonnet spoiler.
