Default Mounting spoiler on my honda accrod

How are you all there. Is nice being with you people again. I am intending to mount a spoiler on the booth cover on my honda accord 1998. What benefits can i derived from this apart from its aesthetic view. i was made to understand that it tends to provide some balances for the car while in motion in what is termed aerodynamics. what other benefits can i also achieved in mounting it? My other question is directly on honda accord 1998 with 4 cylinders using automatic transmission, when the timing belt get cut due to age does it affects the valve directly by bending it?. There should be signs that the timing belt is due for change. i bought the car when the milleage was 201,000 in 2012 presently this year the milleage is now 230,000. can we say is due for replacements. hoping to get more information from the forum. THANKS AND GOD BLESS

Little or no aerodynamic benefit from a rear wing or spoiler, just for looks until you get going pretty fast.

If you do not actually know when the timing belt was replaced, I'd get it done.
Every 100k miles or 7 years (whichever comes first).
There's usually no warning that it's about to break. And when it breaks you'll most likely bend some valves.
