Has Anyone Bought This Lip Spoiler from Ebay

Hey guys,

I just wanted to know if any of you have purchased this lip spoiler from this seller on Ebay....and does it look identical to the OEM one?

Any more feedback on this? From his pictures it does appear that his spoiler might be a little shorter than OEM, but it could just be the pictures.

Maybe you should try a search with the keyword(s) delsa and/or ebay spoiler

Most aftermarket spoilers on eBay look similar to the factory, but they are not identical. Your search will surely bring up the details.

I looked at this but I'm still a bit hesitant. I've read other posts about purchasing the rear OEM lip spoiler and just taping it? Sounds too easy to be true. I don't recall the thread name but it seemed to good to be true that the poster stated that we that there was not a need for driling the two holes for the bolts.

If the bottom of the OEM spoiler is sealed like this aftermarket one then I`m sure you could get away with just taping it. This would cost an extra $120 over the Trim King one though. Since there is no way Acura is making their own spoiler I don`t see what the difference is, I think I`m going to save myself $120 and two holes in my nice shiny trunk.

I was thinking the same, save a bit of cash. I've already gone through almost $400 in OEM and aftermarket stuff. If anyone purchases it I would love to see a picture and of course a review of the product from an actual owner.

Wasn't ebay supposed to crack down on bullshit shipping charges? These seem about 20 bucks higher than anything I could possibly imagine.

I have the trimking one and, not only is the color match perfect on SSM, but it hasn't moved in almost 2 years. I don't even think I prepped it right and I installed it when it was 25 degrees out. Not a single issue!

In fact, I had it parked next to another SSM at the dealer with the (I assume) factory spolier, and mine looked the same but was matched better.

Hope this helps!
