i have been doing more research and the spoiler i have doesnt look any different then the OEM one. So far all other replicas seem less flat from the back. more round ..

Not a significant difference. What is mine? Authentic or replica?

Dude whether you get the authentic jdm or the replica theres no way to tell. but if you really want to know, I dont think that i would find anyone that would sell me an authentic jdm dc5r spoiler for $60.

Thanks, I bought the car with it. The guy before me got it used and then had it repainted, so I cant say the exact number. I am really happy with it.
