Decklid spoiler

Just saw a pretty sweet 2nd gen TSX and it had a nice flush mount spoiler on it. Wonder what the width of it is and how it would look on the TL (looks better in person)

yeah, that flows really well with the curves on the sides of the car looking from the rear, how it follows the rear fenders up, then curves down and across...

If they are the same in width i think it could be easily made to fit the contour

2nd Gen TL Dimensions.

Straight Across of the Trunk: 48.25 inches
Along Contour of the Trunk: 48.50 inches



Looks sweet, if it fit properly, might give the TL a fresh look.

IMO its...different.........

I can't say whether I like it until I see it on a TL. Those "horns" on the two sides complement the TSX tail light "horns", so it may look weird on our car.

i like spoilers, but they have to have some kind of impact on the cars curves and look. imo that spoiler would be nearly invisible as it is on that TSX

i dont like huge spoilers.. but i wanna be able to see mine from more then 3 feet away.
i think that TSX would look just as good/bad with or without it
