Post replica vs genuine spoiler

Hey. I'm new to this forum but I'm looking into buying a basic factory spoiler for my car. The price for the replica is 200 dollars cheaper than the genuine one. Just wondering how different it is and if its better to just spend the extra 200 and get the "genuine" one. Thanks

I agree. That's why I got ww

the factory one has the led and so you basically have led inside your car and on the spoiler. The inside on is going to be turned off when you add factory spoiler but...(you still have 2 lights.)I am not for that but again that's just me. I guess some people like it like that

The ww spoiler is just attached with 3m tape though. Can't it be ripped right off?
The ww spoiler reminds me of the sc's spoiler though. I think its more high class than than the factory style.

It has both bolts and 3M double sided tape. So you can just use the tape or use both.

the replica also has the LED. It's just cheaper cuz it isn't produced by Honda Motor Co. In turn the price isn't inflated.
