YES. i want one pretty bad, but i dont see any on a CL. nor have a seen them on any 2 door 94-97 accords.

ive searched many accord forums for this info, but it seems like theres only ones for a 94-97 4 door accord. the angle of the glass shape in the rear windows between the 4door and the 2 door is different.

however, some people managed to get civic hatchback spoilers to fit onto their 4 doors, and im thinking someone should try to test fit some other models roof spoiler onto a 2 door (or CL)

or individual ones, not necessarily the full bar. FWIW most places that sell them guarantee at least 18% more down force over stock.

i dont think itll fit. our rear windows seem to curve around towards the sides of the car while the 2g seems more flat.

It's called a vortex generator. And if I remember correctly, they are only functional when used with a wing.
