Not appealing to me in those pictures. It looks a bit large and is beginning to take away from the car's overall design.

I agree, it just looks off to me

I think it's going to be a bit like the Fit in general...strange from some angles and amazing at other angles

A larger OEM+ look would be sick as well because of how subtle it would be when painted.

The JDP OEM style spoiler is a bit longer for sure. Maybe John would ship you a fiberglass one if you reached out...just thinking out loud.

I'm sure he could since the mold is the same and it's already finished. Good call.

This isn't the best picture but this is the other spoiler that JDP offers.

She looks good. Can you post a side shot of your red Fit? Thanks for the picture of the open hatch with the JDP spoiler.

So much to buy. Duckbill, springs/coil, alignment and labour, now an antenna.

Really good quality for this piece. Only one "dulled" spot on the spoiler about the size of a dime. Don't know what causes it but it's not a big deal. Fitment was great and install was super easy.

Looks good from most angles. Looks a little awkward directly from behind but I'll get used to it. This wing definitely weighs more than stock and it's much bulkier, but overall I'm happy with it.

Well, I must say that I like it but, I wish it was a little more aggressive.

MINE IS ARRIVING FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

Question: for those with a Base, did you have to get anything additional to bolt this baby on there? A forum friend is gonna help me drill and install and I want to make sure and have everything ready 1st time.

Also big thanks to lowkeymods for getting this thing going, I have ached for a Spoon style spoiler since I first got my Fit.

Happy to help out where I can. I can't contribute much to the technical stuff, but I can do stuff like this. Enjoy!
