wow, that looks pretty sleek...
are the 07 decklids any bigger than the 04-06 ones?
I actually have a TL-S decklid spoiler but can't put it on since it keeps lifting with just tape.. and my trunk doesn't have 7 holes to drill them into, so it's just sitting there i'm thinking of selling it and opting for the 04-06 or 07 decklid.

but are the 07's bigger? they kinda seem like it

I don't know much about the quality / products sold for $60 on eBay...but to me, that almost sounds too good to be true. You know like they say, "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is".

Just my

I was told to shy away from the ones on EBAY, the OEM ones require holes to be drilled which results in firm and custom fit being an Acura product. The list is higher than the $300, and installation is more $$$ as well. I caught a deal bc i am always at the dealership, like its a second job or something..

I personally would rather you put it on the top of your rear view window! LOLOLOLOLOLOL


Let us all know if your wife ever notices and you have to tell her the price (even though to us it's a good price...to a woman that's nuts)

You may be safe, it's been a few weeks and she still hasnt noticed...keep us all updated on that LoL





EDIT: I own a M3 lip on my 03 and it's worked out great...looks good and was very very cheap...but if I had a new TL there's no doubt I'd pay the money...heck if you can afford the new TL you should be able to afford the OEM lip!

The wife found out he had this installed 1 hour after I posted this...I thought for a minute she got on Acurazine and read it or something! He's in the dog house :-)
