I have a 2002 acura TL and I want to get the OEM Spoilder, Cerritos Acura wants to charge me $560 anyone have a cheaper solution?

 

honda curaworld.com (remove space) has them for $467, painted to match and includes new trunk springs.

 

Oh yeah and to add painted, & full install.

 

Buy it from honda curaworld.com and take it to a local body shop to install. My OEM spoiler just arrived today and I will be installing it this weekend.

 

They want to sell me a OEM spoiler painted + installed for $560, how much are they charging you for install only?

 

I am installing it myself.

 

you can get the spoiler painted and shipped at Acura of Athens for half the price. Ask for Phillip...hes the parts manager. Tell him you are a acura-tl.com member

 

get a replica on ebay, and it looks great~

only 88 dollars, some are cheaper

 

1. actright's price included installation.
2. An OEM spoiler, painted, including the new springs for $260?

 

I bought mine from spoilerdepot for about $140 painted. THe only thing I didn't really like was the LED that came with it because it was very dim, not like the factory LED. For the torsion springs, I picked them up from the Acura dealer for $30. Installation is easy as long as you drill the holes on the trunk properly the first time.

I installed the OEM spoiler yesterday. Once you 'get over' the idea of drilling 5 holes in a perfectly good trunk lid, the hardest task is replacing the trunk springs. Some observations;

1. How people do this without the special spring tool is a mystery. You need the tool to both remove the original springs and to install the new ones.
2. When they indicate "Have an assistant hold the trunk lid open." they mean it. When that first spring comes out, the lid comes down. My wife wouldn't come out to assist. (imagine that, she wouldn't come outside when it was 20 degrees! ) So, I ended up using a 2" x 4" to support the trunk lid while the springs were out.
3. I replaced the springs and ran the harness first, then installed the spoiler.
4. If you have NAVI, don't be tempted to try and replace the springs without removing it.
5. You will need a wire and some string to pull the harness through the channel in the package shelf (particularly the last few inches to reach the opening where the harness drops out of the channel) and to pull the spoiler wire through the hole in the trunk lid.
6. Wax the bottom of the spoiler before installing it.
7. The instructions indicate removing the trunk lid liner. I only had to remove 3 of the clips. That's enough to pull the liner back to run the spoiler wire through the trunk lid and to run the harness up from the hinge.
8. Be careful handling the spoiler, it's longer than you think.
9. I did a test fit of the spoiler before I primed and painted the holes in case some of them needed fine tuning. They didn't.
10. The template supplied with the OEM spoiler makes drilling the third hole on the driver's side easy.

 

 

Thinking about purchasing a spoiler from the spoilerdepot (via Ebay) as well. Question for you, did you use the predimpled spots on the underside of the trunk, or did you follow the recommendation of spoilerdepot (which is to create a new set of dimpled spots on the top side of the trunk)? I realize that some aftermarket spoilers do not work well with Acura's predimpled spots, and that some do. I am looking for an aftermarket spoiler that does works with the existing predimpled spots. Thanks.

 

I GOT A OEM SPOILER PAINTED AND SHIPPED FOR 130...its acura geniune not a replica...really lucky find

I know Big Mike 13 was selling his send him a PM

 

If your car color is NBP and you live in washington, we could trade trunk lid

 

I bought mine off of ebay - OEM - came in the original box with all of the hardware for $147.50 + 28.95 shipping. The name of the seller is "magautoparts"..not sure if they carry any more but you could check. Link..

 

Order your spoiler from www.spoilerdepot.com There outta miami fl. I got mine from them and its great. Installed it myself and i made sure i put aircraft sealent around the wholes i drilled and then put the spoiler on to ensure no water getting in. LED light works perfect and ive never had any problems with it. Its an exact replica, i know that for sure. It was $224 shipped to my door. Would cost more for others sine shipping will kill you the farther away you live from the actual warehouse. I live in the south florida area so shipping wasnt that bad for me.

 

its not to hard to install it yourself i did mine twice, you need to have a drill and pretty steady hands. the only thing i would want them to do is to install the trunk spring cause its really tough if you don't have the right tool, i think to install mine was like 20 at Cerritos. if you need help I'm not too far by just let me know.

 

i picked up mine for stuning $75 dollars off this ebay dude....he started the bid at 99 cents, but then i email him if i can local pick-up, and he said yeah...by the time i met him locally, i ask how much he would let it go for, he acted kinda confused and throw out $75! ( <~~the inside me at the moment) it was brand new, OEM, painted WDP w/ stronger tension bar.... installed right after i got home...took about 1 hr!

 

Just thought i would share my exciting story here....hehehe!

 

CHECK THIS GUY OUT!!

he has super fast shipping, very good communication, and its ACURA GENUINE..i got mine for 130 shipped because my color is kinda rare, but magnaautoparts is legit!

 

Yeah, it's actually a Honda Dealership who is selling through eBay.. On the invoice I received it had the Honda logo/dealership name info.. etc Too bad most of the parts they carry are for Hondas..not Acuras.

 

your rear tailights in all red? how did u do that? tape? looks dope... I have a WDP also...like how that looks.
is that legal?
