any extra info on it
how about construction
how does it look
should i get that or pay like 200 more and get the benen

C1V1C

well you get what you pay for, how much is it?
the benen one is probably the best for quality, I wonder if this one is really carbon fibre?

Biggest piece of **** I had ever seen. Quality sucked, didnt fit, and if it did it wouldnt even line up to the rain rails. I actually lost money by buying that POS. When I received it and looked it over I decided to return it. Fukin arospeed made me pay to return it then kept all the shipping charges--which were inflated to begin with. So basically I lost about $30 on the ****** deal. Still pissed about it and this was over a year ago.

Anything Arospeed =

EDIT** Oh, yeah. Now that I remember it was made in Taiwan. Had it all over the box.......total crap.

get benen, if you want to save get inlinefour ones

Maverick77

FYI, Sport Compact Car gives a to the Benen one in their latest issue. It looks like they make some very high quality stuff.

How about the ones JHP sells? Any good?

POS... i bought the JHP one and it deffinitely sucks. it's cheap carbon fiber. it was all scratched up when i got it and they charge you a 20% restocking fee if you send anything back so it was either keep it or lose money sending it back. and on top of all that, it didn't fit properly. only 3 of the 4 holes lined up and there's a huge gap between the roofline and the spoiler. i kinda lost all respect for JHP after that.

you got lucky though Miguel. your car is badass! maybe the EK stuff they sell is better quality... i dunno.

bulori

you are the first people to talk bad about the arospeed carbon fiber duck bill because i heard a lot of good things besides being cheap

also i know the benen its the best but i can´t wait 4 or more months to get the damn spoiler and for 400 i can get the SPOON

SIINSI

Thanks for the info Blazin.... actaully, I bought an Eg hatch and I'm looking for one for that car

Sounds like Arospeed and JHP have quality control issues with some fitting and others not. Remember that many shops that sell their own brand-products contract the manufacturing out to the lowest priced manufacturer, so you never know...maybe arospeed, JHP, and other brands all share the same manufacturer. There aren't very many CF manufacturers that make stuff for Hondas...just a lot of brands that all contract the same ones.

RoaringTurtle

yeah my spoon wannabee arospeed pos wing sucks
fitment was crap
and i mean if the fitment was good, it would be a decent wing for the money
how hard is it to just make it fit right
stupid arospeed
oh well
just gives me an excuse to get a real spoon one

ExospeedAMcrx

we have the Spoon style Carbon fiber duckwings as well. Honestly, Im not going to say it’s the best out there. These are copies and you really get what you pay for. The thing is, why spend $400+ on one that is going to look just like the real thing.
When you can get it for half the price.
If anyone is interested.
We’re having them on as a group buy this April. http://www.exospeed.com

EG $204
EK $229

This a good price?

Exospeed: it would be nice if you could offer a fitment guarantee. That would attract a lot more buyers and give them the security that it'll fit. It doesn't have to be a "must fit perfectly or money back" but something like "all 4 holes guaranteed to line up and bolt-on w/o probs, but spacing between edges may not be exactly identical" or something like that. Most ppl won't mind if one side has a 0.5" larger gap or something like that, but if the holes don't line up, that's a big PITA!

bulori

and who makes the one you are selling
its the same as the arospeed or what

ExospeedAMcrx

yeah i understand on that fitment thing. but then, I m being honest you know.. The holes will fit but liek you said, the aligment might not be Super perfect.
So its in the discretion of the buyer. Im just making the offer to people for a duckwing thats affordable. We all know these copies are not the best, but it'll do for our limited budgets.
I'll see if I can get more testimonies from the people I have sold them to. So far, I havent received any call backs.
Get back to you later, guys.

that's like telling Ben@importparts to gaurantee you a perfect fit for a drag3 turbo kit or else your money back....

I'll Tell everybody this so they know in the future....NOTHING IN THE AFTERMARKET WORLD WILL EVER BE A PERFECT FIT, VERY LITTLE TO A LOT OF MODDING WILL HAVE TO BE DONE!!!!!!!!

bulori

you are right nothing in the aftermarket world fits perfect

Mike P.

Really? My Comptech sway bar fit like butter...so did my aftermarket shocks. If joo buy crap, that's how it'll fit. Like crap.

What's the fascination with these little wings, anyways?

bhcvc

I never said guarantee a perfect fit. I said guarantee that at least all 4 holes will line up but have a disclaimer saying that the gaps and such will not be perfect. Please read fully before criticizing posts. thanks.
