Why would you put a spoiler on a hatchback... that doesn't do anything.

other than the fact that they do create downforce and make the airflow over a hatchback much smoother, they look good.

why would you post something so stupid?

Yes, haha. Thats why I said that.

I can see spoilers on a coupe, but on a hatchback?

I would have to see pics to be sure, but I'm pretty sure that would make it look retarded. Why make your car look faster than it is?...

not necessarily.... they were actually first designed to make some extra force, and brake cooling etc. most body kit manufacturers in japan are actually functional.

My guess is, since they sell the same-style for both 92-95 and 96-2000....
They might have sent the wrong year to you....? Just a guess.

Or there is no 92-95 at-all and they just tell you it'll fit, to get you to buy it....? Another guess.

Funny **** there. Anyways, I hope you like the way it looks, and are not actually trying to add downforce to a car that will not benefit from it.

don't let that **** **** you off. I also hate the fact that the general public thinks of those riced out cars first when you mention modified honda, but at least your car looks that much better by comparison to anyone who knows anything about cars.

I took off my Spoon-like CF wing and put back the stock SIR wing. I did improve fuel mileage due to the change (about 4-5 mpg more, not a whole lot but a little). I didn't believe downforce could actually affect in a drastic way after my discovery.

Yes, I do drive 80miles daily on the highway, hence I noticed the change of fuel mileage.

btw, this thread bites
