yeh, me too and that's what makes me think it might fit...
Anyway, don't want too much attention drawn to car if on street so might just go something like this:

yeah that looks nice but will it suit ur pre face lift lights?
Well, that's the million dollar question i guess - this is pretty much the only example I could find on the net (I did a photoshop on my car but looked like a dogs breakfast lol)
It doesn't look "tooo" bad - I think it suits more of the sharper tail light design of the 99-00 - but i think it's passable.. what you think?

FINAL ANSWER to this thread is: YES. The 99-00 sedan spoiler will fit on the 96-98 sedan.

Re: Ex spoiler swap for an SI spoiler
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes the mounting holes are the same. I have a 00 ex coupe and i went to the lower 96-98 spoiler. I was able to bolt the spoiler on easily the only thing i had to modify is the wiring for the led in it. The wiring for the led is the same but they are on opposite sides. I just ran the wiring so it was on the correct side.
cool
so you can get a wing now
yeh i think so man - I was looking at second hand ones but I found out the Honda part number and Googled it and found the below OEM parts site: it has up to 85% off on some genuine Honda items!
Waiting to hear back if they ship to Australia but if they do that wing is now US$99 down from US$499! Can't even get them second hand for $99! I wonder how much shipping is tho lol...

Ok I've thought about it a bit more and i've decided I will try and get a 99-00 EK mid-wing. They are a discontinued item, but I'm looking to get a genuine Honda one from the US at a special wholesale price of US$99. Normally they retailed for $499+ from Honda! So like a $400 saving and cheaper than an aftermarket as well :)
This is a photoshop image of what it could look like - just ignore the colour it's a little off because i eye dropped in Photoshop to match the wing but you get the idea... what do you think?

You could ask the guy to see if he can sell u the spoiler only?
Yeh man, I already gave that a go and she wasn't willing to just part with the spoiler and then wanted to do some dodgy shipping arrangement without a tracking number so not worth it... plus if i can get a brand spanker from the US for about the same money...?
only thing is it will come in tafetta white, so a little more yellow than the frost white... but not too worried atm about that
