An aerodynamic system (100; 200; 400; 500; 600; 700; 802) for a vehicle (800) comprises an aerodynamic component (110; 210; 410; 810) which is configured to be movable relative to a body of the vehicle (800) between a retracted position and at least one extended position of the aerodynamic system (100; 200; 400; 500; 600; 700; 802), when the aerodynamic system (100; 200; 400; 500; 600; 700; 802) is mounted on the vehicle (800). The aerodynamic system (100; 200; 400; 500; 600; 700; 802) further comprises at least one lighting device (120; 220; 420; 520; 620; 720; 820) for the vehicle (800), the at least one lighting device (120; 220; 420; 520; 620; 720; 820) being arranged on the aerodynamic component (110; 210; 410; 810), wherein the at least one lighting device (120; 220; 420; 520; 620; 720; 820) is integrated in an exterior shell (112; 212; 412) of the aerodynamic component (110; 210; 410; 810), and the exterior shell (112; 212; 412) of the aerodynamic component (110; 210; 410; 810) doubles as a housing of the at least one lighting device (120; 220; 420; 520; 620; 720; 820), in particular wherein the exterior shell (112; 212; 412) constitutes both a housing of the aerodynamic component (110; 210; 410; 810) and a housing of the at least one lighting device (120; 220; 420; 520; 620; 720; 820). The aerodynamic system (100; 200; 400; 500; 600; 700; 802) further comprises a variable supply line (140; 240; 300; 440) for the at least one lighting device (120; 220; 420; 520; 620; 720; 820), the variable supply line (140; 240; 300; 440) being adapted to transmit an operational supply provided by at least one supply source (822) of the vehicle (800) to the at least one lighting device (120; 220; 420; 520; 620; 720; 820), wherein the variable supply line (140; 240; 300; 440) is variable at least in accordance with a movement range of the aerodynamic component (110; 210; 410; 810) between the retracted position and the at least one extended position. The at least one lighting device (120; 220; 420; 520; 620; 720; 820) is arranged to be visible from outside the vehicle (800) when the aerodynamic system (100; 200; 400; 500; 600; 700; 802) is in the retracted position.
