other. the spoon spoiler. it is more noticable than the m3 spoiler and is in better proportions to the car.

I would love to see a Super Touring Wing on the TSX. I had one on my 95 civic and I think that is the only spoiler that would look good on any small sedan

The OEM spoiler works great for me. I love the look of my car and I wouldn't change it for at least 2-3 more years.

I prefer no spoiler at all.

To me, putting a spoiler on a (relatively) slow car seems very pretentious.

No spoiler because it reduces my visibility.

Seriously, I prefer no spoiler because the car looks better without one.

I need the rear spoiler for the downforce it creates at high speeds to keep my drive wheels firmly planted.

i chose "other."

not sure what the spoon spoiler is, but i remember seeing pics of a tsx with a lip spoiler similar to the tl's.

i like that better than the m3 lip spoiler. but i'd prefer the m3 lip spoiler to the oem spoiler.

I agree. If any, maybe something discrete and natural looking. I saw this huge wing on a Toyota Corolla the other day, and I think the guy thought I was rubber-necking his car. Needless to say I did a double take because the car looked so friggin retarded.

My friend's 4 year old cousin saw a large wing spoiler on the back of someones car one day and apparently said "Daddy, why does that guy have a keyboard holder on the back of his car?".

I've never seen a spoiler on a car (on highways or streets) that wouldn't look better without it. But I figured there HAD to be a reason why they were invented.

Normally I'm a spoiler guy, but I'm going with the (current) majority on this one...the TSX looks great with a naked trunklid.

i think my tsx goes from sedan to a sports car look with the spoiler even though the tsx is no Ferrari. It still, in my opinion, looks better. The spoiler im referring to is the acura spoiler with led 3rd brake light.

But the Spoon one looks so similar w. the M3 one though.... I really don't see any BIG differences.

But I know this can be very personal!!

I like the look of the OEM spoiler, it looks pretty sporty and I think that it is perfect if you want the sporty look, but I personally prefer the M3 lip spoiler for the look that I am going for, I think it adds to the lines and gives the rear a little greater profile.

Both are great, the lip spoiler is better for me.

Now if they would only make one in RBP.

I love the look of the stock OEM spoiler on my TSX. I think it finishes the look of my car.
