## Abstract

A rear spoiler of a motor vehicle. The spoiler includes a first part intended for being attached to the rear of the vehicle in an attachment position by a first attachment means, and a second part which is intended for being removably attached to the first part in an attachment position by a second attachment means, the second part leaving a portion of the upper surface of the first part visible in this attachment position.

## Claims

### Claim 1

Rear spoiler of a motor vehicle, said spoiler comprising:
a first part configured to be attached to a rear of said vehicle in an attachment position by a first attachment means,
a second part configured to be removably attachable to said first part in an attachment position by second attachment means, said second part leaving a portion of the upper surface of said first part visible in said attachment position.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

Rear spoiler according to claim 1, wherein at least one of said first part and of said second part is structural.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

Rear spoiler according to claim 1, wherein said second part is structural and wherein said second part carries a technical element.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

Rear spoiler according to claim 1, wherein said first part is shaped to allow assembly and removal of a rear window when said first part is in the attachment position.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

Rear spoiler according to claim 4, wherein said second part covers an upper edge of said rear window when the second part is in the attachment position.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

Rear spoiler according to claim 1, wherein said second part comprises a panel and a reinforcement which extends into an interior space of the second part, and which reinforces said panel.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

Rear spoiler according to claim 6, wherein said reinforcement is an arm which has one end in an immediate proximity of an upper surface of the panel of the second part.

### Claim 8 (depends on 6)

Rear spoiler according to claim 6, wherein said reinforcement and said panel constitute together a single part made in one piece, said reinforcement being hinged to said panel by a narrowed portion of said panel and being foldable in said inner space in a folded position in which it reinforces said panel.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

Rear spoiler according to claim 8, wherein said narrowed portion is a molded hinge film.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

Rear spoiler according to claim 1, wherein said second part is attached to said first part by snap-fastening.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

Rear spoiler according to claim 1, wherein said first part is attached to the lining of a tailgate of said vehicle.

### Claim 12 (depends on 1)

Rear spoiler according to claim 1, wherein said first part is attached to a roof of said vehicle.
