cccolts , i remember a trader on ozhonda selling it if you get depserate - but if you can find it for around 3-400 us it's gonna be heaps cheaper than getting it from an australian vendor.

good luck finding one, i recon they are pretty nice (should suit the style of your car) and more interesting than oem

hopefully i can find it cheaper than there cause they want US$595 Shipped. I mean that is a rediculous price.

Supply and demand I guess.

For a strip of plastic, that is rediculous...Love the style though, so if anyone out there wants to make a knock-off of it, I'd buy it.

got an email back from opakracing and the guy is in japan. he is bringing me back a spoon spoiler. so I should have one soon. Now for the tricky part. Does anyone that has a carbon grey car want the factory spoiler. I have a factory spoiler on my trunk and want to trade trunk lids cause it would cost a fortune to get the holes filled and it repainted.

Dude it's a lot worse than I thought. I just noticed it two days ago. My wife must have set something on there. To big of a blemish for a show car. IMO





Here's the other scratch.

well there is a guy in the club that I am in that owns a shop so he will repaint stuff for next to nothing its just the filling the holes would have been a PITA and not to mention expensive.

I also forgot to mention that you would have to take off your acura badges and i ould have to take my honda ones off cause i have them converted if you dont remeber unless you do too. i forget. one other thing, there is a small dent in mine that the dealer said they can remove with the paintless dent repair i just havent gotten it done yet. it is from a lacross ball. it is on the back where it used to say TSX.

nah I havent gotten one yet. hoping to get it before next show season but not sure if that is going to happen. I am however going to be getting the facotory spoiler removed by next show season definitly. I really want to get the complete in and out badge conversion complete so the euro r steering wheel and air bag may come first.
