Abstract

A motor vehicle roof with a wind deflector element (20) which can be raised with its rear edge area (16) and a covering arrangement which is located behind the wind deflector element for selective joint closing and at least partial clearance of a roof opening, the wind deflector element having a spoiler body (10) for preventing unwanted air flow noise when the covering arrangement is open. The spoiler body (10) is foamed onto the wind deflector element (20) via a peripheral foaming production process.
