Rear Spoiler - Optional Extra

binchy · 13th June 2007, 21:24

Has anyone had the optional rear spoiler in Knighthawk Black? I am thinking of forking out the £250 for this but havent seen it in this colour.

Does it make the rear of the car look better? I was just wondering as the rear is black anyway?

Help Plz

Hi Binchy

There are pictures of a NHB Civic with the rear spoiler fitted in this thread
Stock clearance - 5 door trunk spoilers

I does seem a little pointless on the black tailgate. Nobody would know you have it fitted.

Yeh you could be right. Im getting a Company car in the next four weeks and so this would be by only outlay (apart from tax of course).

Hmmm im still tempted. It adds a little touch...although not a massive one.

Was going to opt for the civic in vivid blue, which would make the spoiler look alot better. But the black plastic around the wheel arches etc put me off

You have asked the right person about extolling the virtues of Vivid Blue.

Yes, the spoiler looks good on the Vivid Blue, and if you can persuade the company to paint the trim then you could have a Civic that looks as good as mine or Hondaatje's

How much is it to paint the trims. It would have to be a Optional or factory fitted extra and couldnt be done after i had the car.

The company wouldnt pay either but if it was fairly cheap i would pay myself?

Cheers

There is no factory option to have the trims painted by Honda unfortunately.
I had the work done by a local bodyshop for £500, but I have seen other people quoted from £400 to £900, so it would pay to shop around.
