Rep Power: 285 i thought you were gonna paint it with autozone paint????? ugh so confused lol. wait, are you taking it to a prof. shop to paint it with autozone paint? WTF??
w/e lol
anyways does it look f'ed up now cus the angles you cut when you made your mind up the first time? you should slightly round the edges with some 320 grit sand paper than go over it again lightly with 800-1200 grit.

Rep Power: 787 no i just said that to see ah whatever. bodyshop is doing it with real paint. the edges look the same as they did when it was longer. I just cut and sanded it to the same shape. everything is very smooth.

Rep Power: 787 i dont like it. it looks weird covering the taillight, and it has a hump for the H emblem (which I dont have). Hybrid spoiler is easy to find if you have $200

Rep Power: 262 ^^ cheukkin: you asked if i'm still selling it... "Blkcivic" bought it from me, but now he's selling it because i believe he doesn't like the way it looks on his car. He's selling it, check the for sale section if you're interested.
Gearbox: I see what you're trying to do now... looks nice on the EL and makes sense now.

regardless I just don't like that "overhang" style period...a spoiler/wing is meant to do that which it is named...not act like a trunk lid drape hehe...
but whatever it's your style and it should only matter to you

Rep Power: 0 blinky's looks good, but the EL's inner tails don't go into the trunklid on top as much as a 4dr civic's do, that's why it looks pretty good, i don't like it being as short as it is in order to not cover the top of the inner tails, when changing the bulbs in the inner tails, do you have to take the whole inner tail out of the trunklid??
