The wings west spoiler doesn't come painted and does come with double-sided tape. I don't think that will hold it tho cause the wing is kind of heavy. I had mine screwed in, you can use the same marks that are setup for the factory spoiler, it may be slightly off, but not too much.

How can you taped the spoiler on the decklid?? It has to be drilled on.

Only OEM spoiler comes in painted.

I put my spoiler on yesterday, there is no way you can just tape one of these spoilers to your trunk, without losing it in a car wash or something. Even the factory wings are bolted on, as someone mentioned, theres are marks under the truck lid that are for the factory holes to be drilled in the case the car comes with a spoiler.

They do more than just look good, there's the option of the easier to see third tail light, arguallbley making your car safer.

Vffr1 - Hey Michael, you just got my wheels a few weeks ago, now you have wings too! Movin' right along I see! Congratulations! What's next?

Winkly2000 - double sided tape will last one winter, if that! Screw it on.

Hey Chris,

Thanks for the post and the wheels (which I love by the way). I have tinted the windows, 35% all around. Added 3" chrome tips, rear deck spoiler, chrome licence plate frame (says Acura TL) and H&R Springs 1.7 [F] 1.5 [R]. All I have left is to have the springs installed, and I'm done. When I wear the tires out I may opt for 18", but since my wife drives it, theres a good chance I'll leave the Type-S wheels on, makes for good car "Fung Shuei."
