IMO, it's a little big, but it's nice....so you would need to debadge your car in order to have it fit?....be sure to take more pics of it when installed.

StanMan

it's size is perfect for me! the design of the rear turnk lid panel is slanted a little too forward so this spoiler gives it back some "heft".

although i was already debadged, it looks like you do have to take the model badges off to mount this.

How much did you pay for it.....That exactly what I been looking for.....Did you buy it from this site?

AcidHorse

From the back it looks subtle yet noticeable. I didn't notice that it was wide and broad from of the top view shots.

What is it made of? Rubber or polyurethane?

StanMan

the spoiler is from our very own snook...you can click the aero link at the top for exact pricing, but it was about $650 to get the wing to the states and another $50 for local shipping. took about 5 weeks in all.

it's nice...just big enough! and i much prefer lip spoilers over rear wings.

i believe the wing is made of fiberglass (you can smell it) and then coated (not paint though) with what seems to be a smooth hard plastic finish.

Stanman....let's meet up!!!
I wanna check it out in person heheheh....

StanMan

i'll let you know when it's installed...

VolkRacing

Alrighty then!

StanMan

wolkracing...the wing should be refined by tuesday (hopefully) so i will be at pj's in the city of industry mid-afternoon getting it installed.

Cool Stan....
City of Industry...right by me...but I'll be work all day till about 5 or 6...where you gonna be then? Hmm....I'll PM you my cell # gimme a call...and you can check out my new wheels too and lemme know what you think

StanMan

when i was rolling out?

then YUP! i knew you hadd to be someone from this site! sorry i missed you...nice ride!

getting in the rim mode too?

StanMan

hey steve sorry about that! i called but i got your coworker and then i totally forgot to call you back. maybe we can meet up again some other time and place. i'm usually in the area on tuesday, but i am free sunday - wednesday.

StanMan

i got the spoiler installed...yippee!

but the car looks like S so i am waiting to get it washed first.

in the meantime, here are two wheels i test fitted to my ride today...

dronell mu 21"


dronell 5 20"


oh this was there too...


18" gunmetal gt-n...thanks whoever you are!

VolkRacing

Hey Stan no prob!
just gimme a call when you free again

those GT-N's look crazy!! haha I think my friend's getting those for his civic si...he was orginally going to get the GT-P's but he found out I was getting 'em so he changed his mind

thescoundrel

stanman,

did you lowered your ride too? from the pic's you posted your ride is kick'n

how do you rate acp for getting your spoiler? Was think of going that route too.

StanMan

price was a grip (not the fault of tim) but the spoiler came in a week earlier (instead of 6)...so i would rate ACP as being very good!

nope not lowered yet...waiting on the wheels first!

city001

ya...when u roled out...that was me heard Vic said he did 6 of our cars that day.

yo stan...those r damn nice rims u lookin at.

ya...i'm gonna get them rims too...just haven't decided on one yet.

but damn...20 or 21??? will it fit? and what size are the tires??

i'm thinking of getting 18s or 19s

btw...did u have to get the camber kit after u change the rims?

city

StanMan

i was there for a couple of hours and i didn't see too many tl's there...questionable, but they do a lot of cars in a day! but i didn't get my wheels yet...those pix are from tuesday. 20s should fit but they are going to be oversized since this wheel and tire combo is going to be bigger than stock. i calculated the stock rolling diameter to be about 25.5" and the smallest tire available currently is 245/35/30 which comes out to be 26.75". i don't think there is a 215 or 225 tire in 35/20s yet.

so what you are looking into? i couldn't find any 19s i liked and i didn't want wheels that everybody had. it just happens to be that dronell made a wheel (BR) that looks exactly like the wheels i love (brabus III) but in 20s.

but yes i would definitely look into getting a camber kit since replacing 20" plus tires will not be cheap!

StanMan

sorry it took so long but here they are...

let me know what you think!

Mr Hyde

car looks great Stan, love the color.

Damn those Dronell MU's look sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!! What do a set of those bad boys run?? Do they come in anything less than a 20 inch??.

If you like the Dronell 5's they look exactly like Dazz Matiz rims, and they do come in 19's.

StanMan

thanks mr hyde...you got great tastes too!

not sure what 21s cost, but a set of 20s will probably be in the 4K to 5K range with tires. i think you could special order a 20" MU wheel.

the sun finally came out so i took more pix!

you all haven't had enough pix have you?

Mr Hyde

LOL you went the wrong way, I was thinking more in line of 18's or 19's. No 21's for me
