heck, I say try it... no one really has a spoiler taller than 2 inches on a TL... if you don't like it, fix your trunk lid and sell that joint on ebay!

BTW.. ur ride is hella fresh, as is...

FYI, you will need a Mugen VIN before you actually try to get a hold of the part. Prepare to shell cash, too.

A giant wing on a 4 door entry level luxury sedan.

Sounds like a recipe for gay to me.

Call me crazy, but I think some cars are best dressed from the belt-line down, and the TL is one of them. I think the car in the first pic is perfect as-is. A bigger wing adds nothing but attention, and it may be from folks you don't want attention from (read troopers and thieves!).

But, I will also say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Put one on there. At the very least, it'll reconfirm that the majority of us don't want one.

I don't think it's even a rice or nice question. Aesthetically it just doesn't work for the TL. As others have alluded to, the best look for the TL is long and low. I'm personally not fond of the factory (or similar) wing spoiler for that reason. It disrupts the roof-line. For stubby pocket rockets, that wing might work, but for the 3G TL, not so much.

That civic is hot but to put a spoiler like that in a TL is not a good idea at all! That would be rice!

That is not his car, that is badazzTL-S's. He is on H&R Coilovers. There's no way A-Spec springs will drop that low.

Ehhh I'm not to sure about how I feel about large spoilers on our cars, but to each its own I guess.
What worries me is what a large spoiler looked like on a blue type s I saw a couple months ago, total failure.
