Trunk lip spoilers

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to find out what trunk-lid lip spoilers these are, and which one (if not both) are factory options for the TSX in the US or Japan. For Grand Am rules, we are only allowed factory option bodyparts for the car.

Thank you for your help!

Unfortunatly, you're stuck with the heavy wing spoiler then. That's the only US/Japan factory part.

However, if you are allowed Euro factory Honda parts, there is a "ducktail" spoiler that looks similar to your second picture, but is lower profile. If you are allowed it, I imagine that's the one you'll want to go with.

For pictures and descriptions, we have lots of existing threads you can search through. Welcome to the boards, and nice race cars!

Ya the first one looked a little like the M3 lip spoiler (actually the way it tapers off on the edges it may be an M5 lip spoiler - I was researching them for my E36 M3).

Well we just heard back from the Grand Am officials and when we mentioned the decklid spoilers they said "NO WAY! you guys are already to fast".

Thank you for your feedback and help guys! I'm sure i'll be posting more questions like this to make our cars go faster.

what's your email? I tried PMing you, but it says you cannot send or receive messages or you have elected to not receive any messages. Let me know.

a more proactive approach would be new users aren't allowed to message other users on the board unless they have been a member of the board for more than say 1 month OR have 100 posts.

you may say that gaining 100 posts is easy, but it's more stuff the spammer has to do and may think it's not worth their time.

Just wondering why Mr. Heel and Toe's spoiler is about 13 times more expensive than the ones that proliferate on eBay?

the one on his site is from Honda.
that's how much Honda charges. it's an OEM spoiler.

the ebay ones are just cheap knock-offs, that's why.

Okay, but are you able to explain the substantive difference to me? Let's be honest, a spoiler like that doesn't exactly improve performance, and will in essence be used for nothing more than aesthetics.
In which case, why spend $700 on something that looks identical to a non-OEM unit priced at $65?
Not trying to start shit, I'm just truly curious. Thanks.
