Thanks. I think you're right. Here's what I found from a previous post:

I think that's the RSX A-Spec spoiler. I dont know if the RSX one will fit a TSX though..

Another pic

I swear Mugen + Honda = Bread and Butter

All there TSX dress up kits are so damn hot. I think any front lip / bumper except the Euro-R lip with the Euro-R sides and rear would be pretty damn sexy.

that spoiler is a jdm integra dc5r type r wing.

i've seen a few japanese accords with that wing on, to me, it makes the tsx look like a wannabe lancer evo.

damn, that black euro r in the pic with the white euro r is MEAN!!!!

but the mugen bumper is so ugly too.

I dont know why you people think putting some things on the TSX is concidered rice. Mugen and thousands of more parts come from Japan and/or are copied off japanense parts. So if you stick on a mugen part that's considered rice? Im Chinese and Im throwing on all these japanese parts on my car that makes my car ricey doesnt it? I dont understand you all about flaming on certain things. Maybe its the age thing i dont know.

I own a RICED out TSX. yeah!
Flame On

In my opinion the Integra wing looks pretty nice.

Sorry, but a big monster wing like that is RICE. Trying to make something that is non-functional even MORE non-functional is rice.

I tend to agree with you, but that statement could be said of the OEM body kit. It certainly doesn't add any function, so does that make it rice?

I think today when people refer to Rice, they mean something that's tacky. Taste is subjective. I think the DC5R spoiler looks gorgous on the DC5R,
on the TSX

The wing doesn't fit the profile of the TSX. I think the TSX generally looks better with subtle changes. Though I must say, MarineTSX's car looks sweet.

No, because your not making it even MORE non functional. Thus, the OEM wing is ok, as well as the body kit.

I agree. It's not what manufacturer makes the part, or what country it came from, it's the appearance that makes it rice.

I don't like the Mugen front bumper, but when I do see it, I wouldn't call it rice, cause it doesn't look that bad. That one gay kit all over ebay is another story though (looks like it has fangs in the front).

the kenstyle? you know you love it!!!

i dont like the mugen front bumper either, but i dont consider that rice. it's just not a kit i would buy.

putting a dc5r wing comes pretty close tho!

So as along as the factory puts it on, it's okay? Or can the factory go too far?

Most magazine tests of the Sti and the Evo always give negative views of the wings-that they've gone past what they consider good taste.

It's always going to boil down to personal preference.......

Honestly I don't think the wing looks that bad at all. It looks good on the RSX and Type-R, not too bad on the TSX. I mean I doubt I'll ever put it on. But to each his own.
