Seriously considering removing my coupe spoiler

Ataricade said:

I’m part of the group that didn’t hate it. I really enjoyed the car and had a lot of fun with it. I think it was just cool to hate on it. The fact that it was completely different than any other civic trim level made it more unique than our SI is right now.

Where I work at a nearby business there is a guy that has one the exact color I did so it’s kind of cool seeing it every day.

I dont really believe there is a fad to hate on it just to jump on a bandwagon. The people who hate it truly dont like it for megit reasons.

The 2 reasons why it was/is hated so badly: it was horribly ugly, and its performance really sucked.

I had a base rsx with the same engine, and it was awful. Although the base rsx was a much better car than the 7th gen si.

Oh shit that sounds good. I bet that wasnt cheap, though.

He is trying to recoupe his money by selling me his spoiler (that he doesn't want and is taking up space in his garage) for an absurd amount. (Ml)... lol

Resonator was $50, got the muffler on sale for $80, welded it all for $120.

That sounds fantastic!

The black one is not an si. That generation honda gave us the ugly ass hatch si that almost everyone hated.

I drive that exact 7th gen-- in the States it was marketed as the EX but in Canada they had it marketed as the Si, where our hatch Si was their Si-R. It's a really confusing and rather silly thing, but in Canada I suppose it is an Si. As for the EP3, I don't get all the hate it got. I understand it's funky looking, but other than that it had a great engine and a sweet shifter and interior. I've contemplated trading my car for one on multiple occasions.

Here is my Si without the spoiler.

How did you cover up the holes or did you get another trunk?

I love how the spoiler looks on the coupe. It gives it a distinct look.

I like the spoiler it blocks out headlights of the cars behind me at night. lol

You have no idea. My wife has a mini cooper and at night, you literally have to wear sunglasses because of headlights.

I want to change out my coupe spoiler for this rendered type r one:

I saw this guy on here who had and it was so clean. He had a coupe but not the si. I checked the link and it says it wouldn't be compatible. Any ideas?

I love the coupe spoiler. Not as “loud” as the Type R one, and not as understated as the sedan one. With that said, I wasn’t a fan at first, but then I saw a regular coupe without it, and it just looks off...instantly made me appreciate mine.
