Has anyone tried an OEM-Styled spoiler such as this one?

If so how was it?

Would you guys get it? Or would you go ahead with an OEM spoiler?

TSXKid2010,

I don't have any personal experience with this particular eBay spoiler but I have seen some of my customer's cars equipped with the OEM wing-type spoiler. It's a very subtle, tasteful yet aggressive piece that really boosts the aesthetic value of the TSX's rear. The fit and finish is quite impressive as well.

If you do happen to go down the OEM route, there's a nifty write-up on the wing installation here: 2010 TSX wing-type spoiler installation instructions

You know, if I had it to do over again, I would try the M3 (M5?) stick on deck lid spoiler. Only reason being is that the OE lip spoiler attaches by drilling holes in the deck lid *INSIDE* the area sealed by the trunk seal.

So...when your wife or girlfriend opens & closes the trunk by the lip and the adhesive gets a little loose, your damn trunk lid fills up with water & pours into the trunk when you open it.

I'd buy an eBay one if they had grigio, they don't sell grigio...

I just bought/installed mine from carid. I got the lip spoiler. It looks amazing and the price is half of OEM. Not sure if I mounted it slightly off but the far corners pointed part towards the rear window is slightly raised off the trunk. Nothing a little bit of extra double sided tape wont fix. Here is the link for the spoilers.

also, you need to drill holes in your trunk for the lip spoiler. its pretty much impossible to get a tool inside the trunk area to tighten the nuts though...

I remember reading somewhere that the OEM wing can actually obstruct your vision when backing up? Just something to think about.

It's says you can do without drilling

Yes it does, a little. I have one, and it was distracting at first but i got use to it. If i had a choice to do it over again, i would go for the JDP spoiler

The OE wing is distracting? Shhhhheeeeeeit...try spending some butt time in an EVO, WRX, or R33...you *constantly* think someone is tailgating you.

Funny, I actually did experience this back in high school in a friends WRX. Always thought a car was on the bumper, especially when merging..
