I'm not sure but apparently this happened a few months back. There's a recent thread about it in the Discussion section.

Yeah, up until they started making the double and triple decker wings. When the BIG boom in the import scene came, they started coming out with more and more stupid designs. And it doesn't help that everyone and their mama wants to be JAydEE-EMz, y0!

actually i have always thought wings west was rather....mmmm...................queer.A)they over priced the hell out of there shit and B) all there designs have been hella ugly.
take there G55 kit for the si. all i say is BLAH real people dont want 11 piece kits for there street car. we want practical yet aggressive 4 or 5 piece kits that are decently priced! i say raise up and lets make some companies start making us (EP3 owners) some new kits and not the same 6 ones i see on every other EP3(being the type-r replica/buddyclub3 kit/buddyclub2kit/poison kit/shogun kit/ and those damn ugly sparco widebodykits) practical not profitable!

Maybe if the EP was a stronger seller and was more popular as a car to mod, companies would start making better kits for it. Even among the people on this site, most of the people don't talk about kits except for the CTR one.

Yeah, the real deal Honda one isn't bad but I don't like the one for the USDM EP.

You need to shave spoiler because our hatch is different than jspec hatch.
Its pretty easy to do with good dremel.

ahhhh ok... I was thinking about getting one from 4caroption but it says it needs a pro install. I'm wondering, what exactly would you need to dremel?

on CTR's that come factory w/a wing the rear glass is different and is cut out in 2 spots for the wing to fit, on a USDM Si we have the rear glass w/o those cutouts so when a wing is made from a CTR mold we have to grind down those 2 points so that it will fit flush w/the hatch, it's no big deal though...

Is it safe to assume that the HFP wing is exactly the same as the CTR one except those points that have to be shaved down are already done?

I just got mine in lastnight, will check fitment later today after work. According to 4caroption no mod is needed.


By the way, I got it off their ebay auctions for $229 shipped. ($199 + $30 shipping) took about a week to get from end of auction. They used to have 3 different prices on their buy it now auctions, after i emailed them asking of inconsistencies they never replied, but buy it now prices dropped an all to $205;)

Fitment is ok. Similar to Renova or spoiler depot, but nothing really fits like OEM right? Well doesn't bother me too much, i have NHBP so gaps not to noticeable.

Looks pimp though:cool:
