Also Takoyaki can you please measure how long the spoiler is ?
i don't know about the ATPL but the Sarona don't have gaps that i know of. i've seen memebers here with it and the fitment looks perfect, someone correct me if i'm wrong?

The ATLP has a gap which a regular spoiler has....sarona has a small gap....a little smaller to ATLP....

both the spoilers are ~$300 unpainted.....by the time you add shipping and take it to a decent shop to get it color matched your looking at another $100....

on Jared ride....the KBP color matches very well....i would rather spend < $100 on this than $400 on any other roof spoiler.....

but thats just me and my ...... if you have a loot somewhere then let us in on it and all of us will buy the ATLP version with carbon fiber

Not bad looking at all for the price. Also dont forget everyone use bing cash back! go to bing.com and search for ipod or what not click on the link that says u can get 8%(or whatever the going % is sometimes more) and then once in ebay search for the item # and if u buy it now you'll get some money back so you'll save even more. Not much but hell, still something.

swoosh, u have a pm

The width doesn't bother me...neither does paint match...looks damn good. It's the shape and angle of it. It look like a lip spoiler...the expensive ones are deeper and angled more downward from what I remember.

hey man i understand where you coming from !!! and to be honest it does look like a lip spoiler....it has that aggressive look to it....

i thought it would be different.....i have seen a lot of sarona and sarona knock offs....atlp and atlp knock offs.....i think this is something different !!!

You are correct, it is different.
If you look at Steven Bell's post (#65), his is a completely different line. There's no swoop or "ducktail" like Jared's and Takoyaki's.
Steven's spoiler is suited to complement the base lip spoiler and/or the wing type spoiler (IMO). This eBay spoiler is a better complement to the TL-S lip spoiler and the CSL type spoilers (Which I happen to have):



I would LOVE to have a pic of the eBay spoiler from this angle.

I would love the group buy... this ebay roof spoiler sounds great guys.. it's less than $100. I would rather get this than a $400 dollars one. They both make the same effect. Not much of a difference.

Where can I find that JDM roof spoiler? I kinda like that look more. I looked on eBay but there aren't any listed for the TL and there are no measurements in the listing. Anyone know what other models will fit on ours?

What kind of trunk lip is this? Do you have any side profile pics of it? Where can I find one and how much? Thanks!

It is called the CSL spoiler. I purchased it used from the Black Market. I'm not sure if they are still being produced. You can PM KB1SPEC to see if he knows any more info, as I think he was the one producing them. IIRC, they come in both fiberglass and CF.

I like it too, good buy! However, those little gaps on each side would bug me like crazy! It may blend in better on my NBP.

I don't know. I think I'm out on this one. The more I look at, the more I'm willing to keep look for something that perhaps may be more expensive but somewhat more conservative.

IMO, it's pretty conservative. It doesn't reallys stand out and scream its there. Well, everyone has different flavor

Looks conservative to me too. Just how I like it.

But the gaps are a deal breaker.

Maybe it's one of those things I need to try. I will admit that it took me some time to go with the window visors and rear and side A-spec body piece, and now I wouldn't like the car as much without them. Has anyone confirmed that the cheaper model (Accord Coupe) will fit the TL, or would I need to go with the TL model?

Thanks but I think I'll pass...the gaps are a deal breaker and at some angles it looks like it is at a 90 degree angle from the rear glass...personally not feeling it but a good buy.

I tend to agree with your statement. The gaps are definitely noticable, especially on a lighter color car like my own. But you just can't beat the price, with shipping and painting included. If I don't like it, somebody else will, and selling it at a minimal financial loss is just about guaranteed. I've got very little to lose. I'll probably order this tonight and take the gamble.

But damn that is a hella deal! i say we confirm length of spoiler cuz if the accord is slightly longer id want that one and its for whatever reason, b it supply and demand cheaper than the TL so be nice to know and if it is longer then what kind of discount she gona give on accord spoilers?

Either way im still prob down for one since im NBP and the gap wont show as much

This quote ($60 shipped) was for the accord spoiler man !!! The TL spoiler is $95 shipped....prolly be like $85 shipped....but the accord spoiler might be a tad bit longer and hence no gaps !!!

waiting on length confirmation from Alisha

For $60 just buy it and see if it fits

If there is no gap I will toss mine and get one of those!

Good work, Watson. Let's just hope that the fitment is just as good, if not better than, the TL spoiler that they are offering for $35 more. The last thing she wants is a dozen people buying something that isn't going to fit right and then will need to be returned on our dime. PM sent with color code.

60$ shipped....IM IN!!! So we know roof line for the accord is a little longer but isnt this spoiler considered a "universal" spoiler? Its probably the same spoiler for each car they sell it for.

If its not the same for each car then is the curve in the accord roof the same as the TL?

However, 60$ shipped worth it. PM sent swoosh
