Maybe put the coupes' HFP suspension kit and the rear camber bars for a nice DRIVE ABLE drop on the car that you never have to mess with. Ends up being just a tick over 1 inch lower.

Well for my 2012 sedan I bought the OEM deck spoiler off ebay and they made them for the 08 and 09 and 10 but they do fit the 11 and 12...make sure its not the 2012 style deck lid, this is the 08 style which I like more.. it was like 80 bucks or a 100 bucks I forget. At first I was nervous about drilling in my own trunk but after watching this video a million times, I decided hey whats the worst that can happen, have holes in my trunk? lol so heres what you need, watch this Youtube video a few times, the whole thing didnt take me like 20 minutes

You need a drill, a 3mm and 10mm drill bit, a marker, masking tape or thick paint tape, umm thats it, everything else like the template and spring come with the spoiler when you buy it, I can direct you to the seller on ebay that sold it to me he had a few left

Ya I had my laptop outside while I did the install, here is the video:


Once again, College Hills Honda is awesome for making that video!

Oh and you also need touch up paint, any color is fine, i used red. Ya for the v6 you just remove the inside liner to be able to screw the bolts on, reallly easy and accessable! WHile you have the liner off you might as well install the White LEDS for your license plate, thats the only way to get to them. I found these awesome WHITE bright leds on ebay, made sure they didnt have a bluish tint to them like other brands, ya these are so white and bright I bought an entire 10 pack for 12 bucks shipped, ya they also fit your door courtesy lights so I bought the 10 pack to keep as a spare.

Ya it comes pre-painted from Honda, make sure if you're buying it off an ebay seller its OEM factory, not a replica or aftermarket

I ordered mine from shadow speed at ebay as suggested by other forum members. I don't believe it is OEM but the color and fit are perfect.
For this one you don't need to drill holes; the 3M tape holds surprisingly well. You don't have to replace the springs either; the trunk pops right up.

What color is your sedan? Ya you wanna stick to factory, the paint will be OEM and drilling it is alot better than relying on tape. I didn't replace my spring and it pops up fine.....besides, I bought the OEM one for the price of an aftermarket. What color is your sedan so I could link you an ebay listing?
