rear spoilers
rear spoilers
i could have sworn i saw a pic a long time ago of a fit spoiler that looked a lot like the ep3 ctr one. it was kind of flush with teh roof line like our stock one but quite a bit larger. it wasnt that mugen on spoon one, i see them everywhere, now i cant find this old one i know i saw somewhere. any help? looks kinda like this:
found it! kinda, its not oem but a replica, anyone have any experience with these guys? does this one fit our usdm fits or is this a foreign site? heres the link: HondaFittuner.com :: Aero Styling :: Spoilers :: Axis Style Spoiler Fiberglass

they used to have a similar one on the australian VTi-s Jazz as standard
as seen here:

Alrighty let me straighten things out:
micchung is right, the spoiler is a replica of the Australian VTi-S spoiler.
I got my spoiler from AJ racing who sourced it from a supplier overseas. They only brought over one spoiler and I was lucky enough to snag it. As far as I know, the response has been quite good and I think he is looking to bring in more.
As for mounting, it uses two factory mounting points. If you have a sport, you'll have to plug up the holes. I used some foam weather stripping and lined the underside of the spoiler to cover them up and prevent any water from getting in.
As for the material that was used, it definitely didn't feel like fiberglass as it wasn't heavy at all. I'm pretty sure mine was a urethane or plastic based.
I've dealt with hondafittuner.com once and I NEVER authorized the use of my picture to be used on their site so I'm a little pissed at them right now. From what I can tell, the spoiler that they are selling is NOT the same as the one that I have. The style is the same, but the material is NOT!!! Mine came with a grey primer.
From my experience with them (I got the Mugen Style Side Skirts and the Tailgate Garnish from them), it looks like theirs is made by the same manufacturer as my sideskirts and garnish. The skirts fit like crap and the tailgate garnish is not perfectly even (I kinda expected it to be anyways). I had to do some modifications to be able to mount them as well as fit them properly on my car. Unfortunately, they claim that their sideskirts fit perfectly, so maybe mine was just a bad set or something. Either way, I did what I had to do and they fit like how I want them to fit.
I'm disappointed that they would show something that isn't from them and claim that it is their product. I can understand if they want to show the back of my car for their tailgate garnish as I also got that from them, but the spoiler is definitely not theirs and they shouldn't be using my car as a reference.

Actually, they should sponsor me that replica of your spoiler. Id love that.
However, so many people are loving this spoiler that I almost dont want it now. I officially hate my front lip now. I have no OEM lip, my bumper is chewed up and other little things stop me from removing it.
