Rear diffuser TSX wagon

Does anyone know of a rear diffuser for the TSX wagon? I am looking for something with a few fins. Maybe there is something for the Accord Euro Wagon?

mugen does make a rear thing just for the wagon but I have never seen one in a picture that could tell you what exactly it looks like. I have never seen one posted here.

heeltoe is where I saw a thumbnail but not enough to do any further research once you see the price.

Mugen

sold by King motorsports http://www.kingmotorsports.com/p-4418-mugen-aero-tsx-09-rear-under-lip-spoiler.aspx

I was looking for something with fins, maybe it does not exist.

That is one beautiful CF diffuser... ICB has all the best JDM goodies. I remember planning out my "future ride" when I was in high school using this site, and the site still looks the exact same as it did back then

Check out Yahoo Japan auctions, several types available, decent pricing, it's the shipping cost that makes it not worth it.

Is that a whole rear bumper replacement?

I'm not seeing any parting lines separating the underspoiler from the bumper so I'm guessing it's a whole unit replacement...

Looks great chuonthis! Still one of my favourite wagons. Which exhaust did you end up going with after selling off the Mugen?

I had the lines filled in so it wouldn't look like two pieces.
The under spoiler does not fit USDM models it had to be cut and extended because our bumpers stick out further.


Currently just running magnoflow tips on stock exhaust but I'm piecing together a Custom Mugen exhaust.

Sucks - you had my hope up!

Wow! I don't think I'd have the chops to cut up a Mugen bumper and/or exhaust. Can't wait to see your new exhaust.

Is it possible to import a JDM/EDM rear bumper and install it on a US wagon? This would remove the issues with having to cut/modify other parts. I have looked on yahoo japan and they seem to be fairly reasonable. Only thing I worry about is the rear crash beam, but realistically unless an enforcement officer knew what they were looking for they wouldn't see it.

On the diffuser note..TK Style Japan has a carbon fiber rear diffuser that I have seen on the yahoo auctions japan site. It MAY work with the US bumper..since its just the 'diffuser' section

I'm in the process now of getting in touch with some friends and relatives to acquire the JDM rear bumper and diffuser. I don't see an issue of fitting/installing those parts, after all it's the same vehicle.

I'd be seriously interested in entertaining the purchase of the Aeroworkz diffuser in CF if you were able to facilitate that at the same time.

the only thing i can think of that might be different is the crash beam..japan has different crash standards than the US and they might have needed a 'deeper' bumper to facilitate a bigger crash bar in the rear.
