unfortunately now ones getting the spoiler. I cracked it this winter (slipped while walking around the car and grabbed it on the way down) While i could fix it its time for something new. Now i just have to flip a coin to see what that may be.

Any suggestions???

an M3 lip spoiler would look good. Wait to see what InspireTL can do about the replica Mugen.

if not mugen or a-spec or one off, clean ftw. those little m3 spoilers look so weak on the cars -- they rank right up there with door guards lol

Kris, you done the swap, you ran 13.9 in the quarter, you put some old school rims on, you lowered the car, not having the lip kit is fine ( would be better if you did have it ), BUT you still have the 99-01 TAILS?! ( If I'm not mistaken ) haha

Don't ban me please... lol

Kris, if you can make a CSL style lip I will pay you very well for your time to make a second for me... I've thought that would look great on our cars since I started looking at spoilers.

I kind of like the look of the new spoiler, but I really only think the Mugen fits the best for the lip look. Everything else is weak like some others suggested. Maybe get a chop of the new TL one on your car...

Some car designs literally scream for a spoiler while some car designs don't.

I personally think a 2G TL looks better without one.

I like the m3 one but the acura concept one looks too big. maybe its just the angle of the pic but its nasty.
