http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...y=33 638&rd=1
I know its up to me, but I wanna know what you guys think. This is basically the same spoiler that mugen offers except its CF and way cheaper...

I've been all over the place on spoilers. I love them for a while, then I hate them. I guess right now I could care less about them, but having said that, the only one that I consistently like is the 'tall' one that you get at the Honda dealer parts counter. I think they're made by Wings West, they come painted to match your car and have a heavy duty trunk lid spring so it will stay open with the extra weight. I think they come with a light kit too. All the rest, including the one in your link don't do much for me.
LoL! Guess I'm the wrong person to ask...

i am agreeing. that spoiler is not "overkill". although they do no purpose on slower cars anyways, it would add some sense of style to the car that doese't necessarily scream 'rice'.. it just needs to be painted to match the car thats the only way to do it

my car is milano red and i plan to get a CF hood also (so i can either leave the spoiler unpainted or paint both the CF hood and the spoiler)
i understand what you guys mean with the whole OEM thing, the only other spoiler i would get besides this would be the Si (even then my car is not an Si and god knows i'll just be flamed to death and people will call my car rice..)

Wellll.... 99.9 of the cars with spoilers you see today do not need them... especially aftermarket.. so it's not like they are a performance enhancer or anything... |

Pare those are not just Si spoilers. Those are 6th gen civic HOE (Honda Optional Equipment). Those things are not standard on Si's. The front lip, painted sideskirts, and painted side moldings are standard on 99-00 Si's...... but not the spoiler. They are expensive tho, I paid almost $500 for mine added on my total when I bought the car brand new. |

I'm going to have to go with the oem style also. I got my si style spoiler with led for $230 painted and shipped. I love it. It looks identical to the factory. www.spoilerdepot.com

That poiler looks good but i would go for custom 1, the theory is if u look @ the intergrated NSX boot spoiler
 u can tell that its been intergrated in the boot now try to picture this but on a Civic Coupe it would rip + its not dificult 2 do iv seen it done on a BMW on 1 of my GTi mags and it came out looking good the price would end up about the same has a replica spoiler |
