Spoilers

The tail end of the first gen CL always looked goofy for me in EVERY COLOR except black. not sure why but i have the primrose mist and the tail end just looks too..slanty.

To remedy this I want to get a spoiler for it. Paint is a non issue
I was on acuraoemparts.com and see the OEM spoiler for 160 + shipping
Look around google and find a few selections but most of them are really vague with the "item may not be what appears in picture" and shit.

ebay has a few nice looking ones for around 100.

i've been watching ebay for awhile now to see if anything new pops up, and nothing has (in the shape of spoilers) so my options are between the OEM spoiler for 160 and this

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/97-00...item2a141d8db8

for 80.

does anyone have this on their car? the guy has 98% positive so i'm sure he's legit, i'm just always weary of ebay

ask if the pic is just for reference or if that is the actual spoiler the auction is for. in the description it mentions a thrid tail light on the spoiler and i see none on that pic...although the pic is pretty grainy...

Yea I'd get a oem. I took mine off as I swapped trunks as my old system broke the welds on the lid, and the new trunk lid didnt have the holes drilled. One day I will put it on lol

I just love it when members pictures are stolen, that pic is from a former member here that put a 2nd gen style wing on their car. I would also find out if the pic is just for reference or not. Ours has a piece in the middle that the wires run through.
