Yeah your right, >_< I've had them on the softer settings (end link mounting hole further away from pivot point)
Lol, I coulda sworn the eibach paperwork said the opposite, maybe it was printed wrong lol.
I've since gone back and re mounted the rear sway end links on my 00 Civic (ASR Rear Sway) to its stiffer setting, and will be swapping mounting positions on the ILX later today to try it out.
Great so u swapped them to the hard setting! U feel the difference ?
I'm happy with the car but need a small turbo/ supercharger for lower RPM.
If u hear anything about hondata pro flash or any ecu mod please let me know.
Yeah a bit of boost for extra low rpm grunt and freeway pulling power would make this car really come alive. As there's a tuning solution and boost available, il jump right on it.
I'm actually under the ILX now making the changes. Going to try just the rear bar first since I felt it needed more rotation in a turn.
Think you got it backwards The new Aspec skirt does come stock on the Aspec ILX. We shouldn't call any of the accessory pieces "Aspec" since they fit all ILX models. I believe they're labeled that way in the configurator to illustrate the fact that the kit is different for Aspec models in that it's cheaper and missing the optional skirt.
Correct. Though I wouldn't count the base skirt as a skirt as it seems to be part of the body panel. And I bet OP's skirt would fit yours and '16 base ILX's as it looks to be tacked-on (in a good way).
In a nutshell...without the F/R kit, the Aspec skirts are a better choice as they line up with the stock character lines better. For Aspec owners with the F/R kit, it boils down to whether the stock Aspec skirts can be removed to avoid that skirt-on-skirt look (if not, keep the stock skirt)
Greetings all, I just wanted to clear the air on this subject of the side underbody spoiler (skirts).
There are only 2 options for the skirts,
• Accessory
• A-Spec
If you bought an A-Spec, you have the higher more aggressive skirts that match the front/rear underbody spoilers. If not, then you can only purchase the accessory kit. There is no such thing as "skirt on skirt" here. Moreover, you cannot purchase the A-Spec rear decklid spoiler, only the accessory decklid spoiler without the chrome strip.

While the side skirt thing is up for debate. Their website configuration would show otherwise but that could just be an issue with their web designer. For example see the gif i made showing the differences.
Any pics showing the differences would be appreciated.
The spoiler comment is not true. The 2013 hybrid spoiler has the same exact chrome strip. This spoiler was not made for the aspec but rather a hand me down form the previous hybrid versions that didnt sell well.... Or at least i dont believe they did...
::waits for sales numbers to be posted::
I think ILX.cel may be right. On the Acura Accessories app, it doesnt show the A-Spec spoiler nor the A-Spec side under body spoiler.
The Non A-Spec spoiler looks more aggressive IMO id take that one over the chrome strip A-Spec
Ugh.
The ILX accessory spoiler has been the same since 2013.
The ILX Aspec spoiler is the previous ILX hybrid spoiler just hand-me-downed.
This is the Hybrid 2013
And this is the aspec
As for the side skirts I really cant say exactly.
I mean I am sure he is right in that no one is actually putting one side skirt over the other side skirt.
Though on acura's site it would confuse one if you pay close attention because it shows the Aspec having the aspec skirt which comes stock then when you add the aspec kit (which is advertised as just a front and rear kit) it adds the ACCESSORY side skirt ontop of the Aspec.
If you click a non aspec version of the ILX I believe it will be missing both skirts. Adding the kit to that one is where it gets confusing because Im not sure if adding the aspec kit to the non aspec would be getting the aspec or accessory skirts since the aspec kit here is clearly advertising the accessory skirts.
I am well aware that the A-Spec spoiler is from the hybrid, thats a given. And thats not the point! The point is... Is the A-Spec(formal hybrid) spoiler available for purchase as an accessory?

Yes. Anywhere you can buy acura oem parts you can buy the either spoiler.

Maybe not!... did u try searching on any Acura OEM parts site for it?? I tryed 3 sites and only the accessory spoiler is available! Not the A-Spec/hybrid Spoiler!
I believe ilx.cel is right!

Yeah I looked. It's there. I try not to make a claim unless I know it's true. If I dont know I will say so.
Interesting... I checked 4 sites now and accessory spoiler is all i can find. not that easy to find huh... And not anywhere acura oem parts are sold. Mind sharing that link to where u found it available for purchase?

I checked 2 of those sites and did not see anything, i see u searched as a 2013 hybrid I searched as 2016 A-Spec and came up short on all sites including Acura's official website

Exactly why I kept saying they were the same spoiler. Just buy the hybrid one. I bet you if you called a dealer the "aspec" spoiler would cost 2-3 times the price the of the "hybrid" one.
Funny how no one likes the hybrid spoiler but slap an aspec logo to it and it's worth something.
I wouldn't be surprised if the dealer would say the A-Spec spoiler is not available for purchase. Then ask for the 13 hybrid spoiler and they'll say yes we have it in stock
Another reason I couldn't find the spoiler is because i was searching for it as an accessory, acura does not sell the A-Spec/hybrid spoiler as an accessory on Any of there sites. On all the sites i noticed i was clicking accessories not auto parts. I guess i need to brush up on my searching skills.

Ive been using these sites since 2013 so maybe im just more used to them.
