spoiler!

[melscivic02]

Have you noticed that when a spoiler is installed by the dealership it's more forward? personally i think it looks ugly...when i got mine installed i had them line up with the rear lights....let me know what u think...

the spoiler is supposed to be mounted using the 4 little bumps on the inside of the trunk; theyre like screw guides. Thats why they're all mounted where they are. Its stronger at those points too :yes:...not that it really needs to be...a spoiler weights what like 5lbs tops...that is if you dont mount a leer jet wing :D Why the mounting points are where they are is probably just because not everyone wants that aggressive look and the location of the points is for a "clean" look...I dont know...;)

Well I think it looks clean where i had it installed. I had them install it as far back as possible not like the dealership. The dealership installs them like 2 fingers in from the top of the trunk...making the curve part of the wing line up with the top of the trunk....mine lines up with the light which i like way better!

stock wings look soo much better than those big metal shopping cart ones. the stock ones are mounted where they should be and actually go with the look of the car...BOOOO to the people that get big metal shopping cart wings!

i agree we should forcifully remove EVERY non oem honda wing.... AFTERMARKET WINGS SUCK!!!!!!!!!:yes:

hahahah yeah those stupid metal wings are so dumb....they serve no perpose unless someone is running like 10's or lower.....even most of the ralley cars dont have them....i was watchin some super street racing today on tv and the 2001 and higher cars including bmw's, hondas, puegots, and and a ton of imports were racing and almost all of them had either no wings or oem wings.....DUMB TO MAKE UR CAR INTO SHOPPING CART

this is what i'm talking about this is a closer view of what i mean!

[Mischief(LTS)]

most spoilers have no purpose. basically they are for show unless you have some serious power and speed, then it has a purpose. so its basically a show thing. mine is pretty big but it will look better once the body kit is on and the wing is painted to match. you just have to know what looks best on what cars. in my case i got an APR GT2 knock off. after i get my avenger kit or whatever it will look pretty clean

[melscivic02]

yeah everyone to there own!
