Does the ass end attract Dust and dirt? Is the rear deffuser causing It.

This happens with most cars, the same thing happens to my 4RUNNER

I don't know what causes it but the 16 OE trunk panel would get dirty just looking at it. Got tired of it so I got a carbon fiber replacement. It doesn't show the dust and dirt anywhere near as much as the OE, plus it is an immediate badge eliminator.

Pledge, blue can.

You think the back end gets dirty, give the rear lower valance a shake and see what falls out:

Yeah, this car is one of the worst I have seen. My only issue is the rear camera is useless after driving wet roads...

This is a common occurence, and obviously if a car is driven in a particularly dusty or sandy environment, the rear of the car shows a lot of this dust. And, the amount of dust that settles on the rear of the car is much more pronounced in vehicles that have flat, high rear-ends (Wagons, SUVs, Vans, etc.)

It's because of the way air flows around a vehicle and how it behaves once it reaches the rear - when you see aerodynamic testing, and look at how the air sort of circles or twirls around the rear-end of the vehicle as it's moving, this dust is moving within this whirlwind, and tends to settle on the rear of the car.

I just ordered anti static straps from amazon going to give it a try. The roads are dusty from cinders and salt. seams like its static related also.

I don't know if it's the worst I've ever had for dust but the back-up camera after driving in the rain is super useless and annoying!

Best thing to do is to ceramic coat and when it gets dirty hit it with a hose and it looks clean as a whistle.

Hello; Yes to this. The Ford van pictured in my avatar was very bad for this. Well bad to keep clean at all being black. You cannot see it in the picture but I bought a scoop which fitted at the roof line on the back of the van. It stood up just above the roof and was curved. It would catch the air coming off the top and force it down behind the van. Did help some, but was in essence a reverse wing in terms of down force. I am sure at high speeds it would lift some.

I dislike non-functional mods whether they be from the factory or after-market. Those trunk panels are just for show...

If you look back to the 70's station wagons available at that time, most have that very wing you speak of. It was actually a mandate because kids used to sit in the back of station wagons ( I was one ) and with the back window down, the exhaust would damn near knock everyone out. The wing was added to keep the exhaust from rising.

Look at all that dead air on her ass! Add some electrostatic surface, say on the deck lid, and gather as much nano particulate as you like.
