OEM doesn't make such accessory and I doubt any big name turners are offering this either. Ebay is the best bet from what I heard, if their quality is fine, why would you want to pay more for the same thing someone else offers?

That's ridiculous. There are very few complaints about the one on eBay. I have one and several others here do, too.

^with all the interest I'm surprised no one has jumped on this. The 4 G TL looks hot with a roof spoiler IMHO.

I dont like it.

the back end comes to a point in the middle.
the trunk spoiler follows this.

the roof spoiler doesnt follow these lines.

I agree. That's why I went with the Ebay one too. The $299 does not include paint I believe.

The top of the rear window doesn't follow the trunk line, either.

no where in this thread that states "soanada" makes a better window wing.

i can honestly say that the ebay one is much better.. well at least in design.

if you insist on getting one.. go get the "cheap ebay one" and call it a day.. you wont find a new style one anytime soon

I can't tell how it is better in quality just by looking at the pictures comparing the $299 piece to eBay's $80 piece. Design-wise, it is to each of their own. They won't be made of some expensive metal or carbon fiber anyways or else they should cost legs & arms. If you have the money and think it is worth the price tag, buy the $299 one. If I was to buy one myself, I'd settle with the eBay one.

I agree. That wing does not look right on the TL. My acura dealer was VERYimpressed with the EBAY wing.

Yeah, ok. Your opinion means nothing to nobody but yourself, so go impose it on yourself.
