Not bad, but doesn't seem to flow as seemless as the OEM one.

I actually thought about getting that one but after flipping through several eBay listings, went for the genuine Acura lip spoiler at $285 (painted and delivered- should arrive tomorrow). The only downside to my genuine lip (besides price) is I figure it needs to be installed by a professional as it requires drilling so I am forking out $200 for a quoted labor at my local Acura dealer. So all said and done, my cost is $485! Yikes, it's crazy to think about paying so much for a dumb spoiler but this would be my only upgrade to my TSX .

As for the spoiler you are looking at, I did purchase something very similar on eBay for my 1st generation TSX years ago. It looked nice but I personally didn't think it looked natural on the '09.

as derwoodee mentioned in another thread, he only payed 20$ for his install. 200$ is insane..

200 is crazy, i thought my local dealer was a rip off at like 160. I have a buddy who owns a body shop, I had him install it when he painted my grill. Not disclosing prices, but I paid a lot less than the dealer wanted.
