I ordered the SI spoiler and had a body shop in Ottawa install it for $160.00 (Honda wouldn't do it) see pics

I’m currently about to do this. The Si trunk lid has reinforced plates underneath the trunk to stiffen up the spoiler, so I made small plates about 1/8” thick out of steel and drilled into them using the bolt pattern from the spoiler, then we welded nuts to the plates where the holes are. This made the plates somewhat similar to the ones of the Si and should be strong enough. I would recommend you put some sort of reinforcement in the trunk lid rather than just install the spoiler directly to the trunk. If you don’t you’ll likely bend the trunk.

The parts I ordered was the spoiler, which comes all as one unit, 6 of the bolts for it, 6 rubber washers, the Si trunk springs to replace my trunks springs and then I made the two metal plates with welded nuts.

Edit: alternatively to save yourself heartache if you have the money to spare, you can just order the Si trunk lid, mind you I priced it out and on top of the $700 for the spoiler, you’ll run another $1000 for the trunk lid, plus the labour to get the lids swapped out

I bet if you ask a few local si's, some will trade for regular trunk. I've seen a few people in my area asking to swap to regular trunks without spoiler

How much did you guys pay for the SI Spoiler and related parts? (US or Canadian?)
My Honda dealer quoted $600 for purchase and install. My dad knows a guy who said I could get painted already in factory color for $309

The wing itself is about $400 which comes factory painted. You can save yourself $200 if you are handy to drill holes in your trunk and fabricate reinforced mounting plates.

Sorry for the late question, but would you mind me asking the dimensions of the plates you used?
I installed am Si wing on my lx coupe, but the weight of the spoiler made the trunk wobble, especially when going over bumps or a rocky road.
I decided to remove it until I add the mounting plates, but im not sure what size to get. You suggested 1/8" thick plates, but what length and width should they be?
thanks.
