Does anyone know anything about these spoilers? I live a few miles from the seller, and was thinking about picking up one, also does the oem have led lights? wee

Actually those spoilers are the same as the factory I bought one for my sis integra and it's the same fitment and identical to the factory one. I also bought one for a nissan maxima for my mom and it's great no complaint.

I bought one of these for my daughter's Civic. The fit was fine. The paint had pretty substantial orange peel on the spoiler underside. Otherwise, it looked good, and the paint (Taffeta White) matched fine. No major complaints for the difference in price. :thmsup:

I didn't buy from these guys, but I did buy a spoiler for my son's 04 Civic EX coupe from spoilerdepot.com. The picture of their spoiler is identical what spoilerdepot has for a picture, so I figure they get them from the same place....
Anyway, the fit is identical to a factory unit - on the Civic you drilled the 2 holes on each side that are already tapped on the underside of the trunk. The third hole you drill on the passenger side for the wire to go through. The fit and color were perfect - you couldn't tell this aftermarket one from a factory one. The wiring was a piece of cake as well. A factory unit has a wire you "wire tie" down the trunk hinge, then you unplug the factory center cyclops light and plug the wiring harness from the spoiler into that. On an aftermarket one you still unplug the plug from the cyclops, but instead of plugging the spoiler in, you use those 3M crimp connectors over the existing wire - nothing more.
His has been on for 2 years without a problem.
I'd go for it.

I was actually considering the lip for a more subtle look yet the wing is eye catching.

I bought my spoiler from exotictruck-auto off ebay, and was very happy with the quality. You do have to splice into the driver side tail light but it's easy. Measuring and drilling the holes in the new decklid was a little nerve wracking, but it went without incident. Here's a couple pics, and if you have any questions, let me know.
