Can anyone know / see the difference between the original and the replica dc2 high spoiler? is it possible?
Do you mean replica as in from a spoiler company to suit the DC2 in particular? I would think they'd offer a fairly generic one almost identical to OEM which would change slightly in length to fit different cars. Do you have pics for us to compare?
The Type R has a high spoiler and Mugen make a replacement also but differs a little.
Even the OEM Wing doesn't do much. I think he means wing that look like the OEM wing but aren't from Honda, so are cheaper. I bloke here at work had a TypeR looking wing on his Prelude, It was taller have mine by a good 100mm. A part from that, it looked exactly the same.
Get something like this.... Form & Function. With adjustable downforce.

is your wing a replica of some sort
im sure if you get the right one.. wont be much difference look out though.. some are dodge
Yeah, I think it's a ripped-off of a C-West or ING wing. You can get em from R-Rated in Sydney (around $600).
I made the legs, they use the standard ITR Holes. So I didn't have to drill more holes & then have to cover the OEM Holes.
yea, when i said replicas, i meant copies of the originals. i was wondering if theres any difference in quality between the two... say an original dc2 itr spoiler and a replica one.
replica should be fine man, all it is really is fibreglass so i can't see any issues. (eg. not as it has a brake light)
oh and don't let evil ppl like OZ#227 convince u to get a GT wing :p
Yeah,..OK. Sorry for getting abit of track.Quote:

However that may have been his choice. But he did get it about 6 months after I got my car, new back in 2000. Then he was asking me if I liked his ITR wing...? It was Blue, we didn't have Blue ITR's back then. Anyway, it did look faster. I don't know what brand it was or where he got it from. (He doesn't work here anymore)
Stock OEM Wing height is 200mm Approx, from memory. (from top of trunk, to bottom of wing). With the blue one being bigger, I reacon it would make for clearer vision out of the rearview. But it is handy at night for blocking other cars headlights.
Yesss evil i tell ya's EEEVILLLL! lol :DQuote:

No horns, but one big PORNO MOUSTACHE... :rolleyes:
Just kidding :p
I think if you could get it cheap enough get it, as the type r wings rock the funky beats.
