whats up everybody! Got a '97 CL just a few weeks ago and starting to decide what kind of mods I want to put on it. My first priority is to put a spoiler on it, i'm hoping to give it a more aggressive look. I like the type R style from wings west and I was wondering if anyone here has pics of it on a firts gen CL. I'm still in the decision making process so if anyone has a cool spoiler on their first gen I'd like to see pics of it.

 

I personally think the Wings West Type R spoiler looks extremly ugly on our 1st gens, but if you like it more power to you. As far as I know they are the only company that makes a custom spoiler. There are several companies that make a copycat spoiler of the factory one, whiches what I have on my CL. The factory one looks sport but yet it still keeps the classie look that the 1st gen CL is known for.

 

I'll have to agree with KikAzCL97. I have the factory one for ease of install and best look for the shape of the trunk/car. Believe me, I looked and measured for a long time and could not find any with that curve. You might have better luck now since I had mine on since 97 and looked only for 6 mos or so. The Type-R rear looks ugly on the 1st Gen CL. Good luck finding something better. If you do decide on factory and your paint is like new. Go with original from A and H (factory, painted), the holes are stamped in your truck and the wiring is there for brake light and the OEM provide a template for drilling, very easy to install and the paint is nice. A and H has the best prices on factory items.

 

When you install the stock spoiler do you take out the 3rd brake light in the back window?

 

only if u got a led brake light in the spoiler. just dissconnect the bulb. theres a connection in the trunk.
