Roof spoiler help....

I've been looking at adding a roof spoiler but alot of them look like just extra trim.. i seen the 1 for the 04 to 08 tsx it looks pretty nice and aggressive. http://www.ebay.com/itm/371099031540?redirect=mobile#vi-ilCompI've tried to Google search the rear window dimensions on both the tl and tsx and I found nothing.. just wondering if anyone knows if it mite fit or how much it will be off by...
Thanks for the help

The one for the TSX will not be wide enough. There are a bunch of guys on here that have the roof spoiler. There are a bunch of ebay...like this one:

You have a TL, get one for a TL. BMWOEMSHOP on ebay sells them painted along with Shadow.Speed

Yes I have a tl. The look of the one GK posted looks lik a piece of trim added to the car. I like the style of the one for the tsx. No one makes one similar to that style?

It is a piece of trim...do you want your TL to fly cuz that one for the TSX would have major lift to it. Don't rice out your TL.

Even though I hate the look of it, the spoiler that is more in line with what you want is the Sarona roof spoiler. Google it and you'll find pics. I think heeltoe is gonna start selling them again soon

People have been starting to use the 08 honda civic one.
It's different, but it always sags in the middle since it's just plastic.







Maybe fab up a w212 one, that's one of my favourites.

Well don't forget the fart can mufflers too. You're right though, to each his own.

You have a 479 HP Civic that surely cost some serious coin to build and a $300 buck spoiler that looks like what you want is too pricey?

This is for you OP

It will require a coat of paint, but I think this fits the cheap bill...

Yes it did cost some .... definitely no fart cans on the tl... but jus my opinion tho 300 for part that has no function other than looks is a lil too much for me. So I emailed www.hicusastore.com and they said they have these in stock




If any else mite be interested ... i think there bout 80 dollar bills

Good luck with it...I actually think that looks pretty decent. Not sure why, perhaps because it's black.

They're plastic, much like window visors

The technical term of this is actually roof visor; it's not classified as a window spoiler.
That's not to say you can't paint it - I'm sure you can - just how some people colour match their window visors.
