Can I point out that the ducktail spoiler is approx. $495 before shipping.
Now, I can send you one if you want it - 3-4 days shipping time.
Problem is, unlike anyone buying mail-order from a UK dealer (many of whom wouldn't bother with the hassle frankly), you'll be paying 17.5% VAT on the price above.
Whether you can claim this back when landed and pay the relevant import duties and sales tax, I'm not sure.
I'll find out a weight for the part and likely shipping cost (insured) tomorrow, and see if/how you can go about paying a net price - no VAT as it's export.
The only downside is that the Euro Accords don't have PWP as a colour option - so I'll need to see if there's a primered only version available.

That sounds great.
I guess I should order it and start making it for everyone?

Looking like $550 shipped on 3 day rate.
Now I or you can speak with our respective Customs and find out if you can have the 17.5% refunded on the item, which would bring it down to $420 ish.
Available in pre-painted colours only - so tough luck unfortunately for PWP owners.
Personally, if I were to "copy" the OEM one, I'd actually extend it so the whole of the bootlid (trunk) were covered by it.

I know those are bad camera phone shots... but it looks A LOT like the spoon spoiler to me and less like the EDM ducktail... but its definitly sitting in a dealer showroom. And I have the spoon spoiler, so I know what it looks like.
Man am I tempted to go by my dealer now and look / ask.

Yeah, reading the thread that goes with that picture, it sounds to me like it's not an Acura offered spoiler, but a dealer-specific. Just something extra that they can get; like selling Comptech parts. And I agree, Reach, that definitely doesn't look like the EDM ducktail.

I'm sure it's not the EDM spoiler cause it looks different.
It does looks like the Spoon one, but not 100% the same. I have the Spoon "style" lipspoiler that a guy sold in this forum half year ago, it is a bit more edgier than the one in the picture.
This is my Spoon "style" lipspoiler. Some old school pix long time ago.
