I have never seen a the duckbill on a CRV. I wound how that would work. I've seen one online of a small wing on the back on one.

since the eg has like mount areas all i did was grind them out. epoxied a strip of plastic in so that whole mounting ares would be flat. cut out little holes so i could epoxy mount nuts in it. then measured it out, drilled and bolted it in place. i also used a little double sided tape just because haha. its not that hard. if you order it up and take a look at how the bill looks you should be able to figure it out.

Also on the black one, it's sitting higher at the back more, so that's what is making it stay off the lights, and sit more like how it would on a EG.

Man I wish I never sold my carbon fiber duckbill I had last year.

Actually its not the angle. It definitely has more of an angle to the wing itself.

that was a test fit so it was not exactly lined up. pluss i just taped it up there so it is drooping down a little so it has a bad angle.

Duckbill wing on the black CR-V looks pretty clean.

That's not horrible.. And would be relatively subtle if paint-matched.
