It's the RKSport spoiler... I don't think they make it but I could be wrong.

thanx guys, i'm sure you're right, but it looks too honkin big to be the same spoiler...unless its the angle of the shot...damn. oh well, you're right though, the rest of the body kit is sweet

Hey all...I took a Focux ZX5 spoiler, sectioned about an inch and a half out of it then adjusted the pillar (attach points) for it to fit the profile of my hatch. Looks cool though my workmanship needed a bit of help.I'll work on getting pics so you can see,Dave

After Market and I've seen a similar design on a Mxtrix. I ordered a different model, this one came. I decided to deal with it instead of trying to get an exchange. It looks good ok though.Here is the link to the Spoiler so you can get a better look. http://www.spoilerdepot.com/Ca...&idB= Here is my install... (sorry about the bad lighting and such. Only have an old Camcorder to capture images from.) Dave

looks good here's my idea (you might have thought of this too) what if you could mold it to the roof-rack covers? you said you had to cut it down so would it be wide enough as is?

I only sectioned a little over an inch out of it. I was thinking about molding it into the roof rack covers but then the hatch wouldn't open. Unless you mean to make the connection between the covers and the spoiler more smooth, which is still a possibility. I need to fix some of my Bondo work this Spring because I really didn't know what I was doing. It could be fashioned to blend better but I still think it looks better than the droopy ears of the OEM spoiler and anything that is Universal.DaveP.S. Sorry for the thread hi-jack!

for those of you interested in the rksport bodykit, this site has it cheaper as a whole, but if you look at individual parts they only have the sideskirts cheaperhttp://www.kgsengineering.com/...f88e8

the only thing they actually make is the roof-caps, right?It would probly take a group-buy for them to make the spoiler

Yeah, I was thinking of getting the RK sport spoiler when I get a little extra cash. One question, if they arent making it, why would they put up false advertisement saying that its for sale? That makes no sense, since it says nothing about pre production or group buy. I was thinking of their back bumper, but no reverse lights. Had the same thing with my GA with that bumper, but I made my own tail lights and made sure they had a reverse light. The Vibe tails are a bit different.

it's cause any spoiler thats above the car looks hideous imo..i dont even like the mid hatch spoiler..doesnt do anything at all..spoilers are only good if your're a race car driver doing 100+ on a course
