i seen in general posts that there might be a fiberglass wing on the way for the 3g civic. i remember something about the rex getting a 'glass spoiler some time ago. did someone drop the ball or was the idea just canned?

I believe there was a body kit that made the spoiler out of fiberglass like the original mugen kit. I've seen a pic of one on this site some time back. It was sweet. I wish I could get my hands on one. It resembles the si rubber spoiler. They are getting pretty rare I'm sure. Someone was talking about possibly trying to get them reproduced but I don't know what came of it.

Sorry to bust your bubble but the Mugen rear spoiler for the 84-87 CR-X was actually made out of a type of rubber material. Believe me ive felt one with my own two hands. I dont know why Mugen did it but knowing Mugen they mustve had a great reason to.

i seen some fiberglass stuff at the local auto parts store. if some one was willing to give me some half-assed directions, id be willing to use my rubber spoiler as a guiney pig. disclaimer: i know squat about fiberglass and body work in general.

not sure if it's fiberglass or not, I think WW usually makes their stuff out of urethane:

I belive the guys making the Mugen repro kit are planning to make a fiberglass spoiler for thier kit. I believe they are just waiting to get their hands on an original Mugen foam spoiler.

we're still working on finding someone to sell or loan us a real mugen spoiler to do the molds.. and probably produce them in fiberglass and carbon fiber.. the search continues..

someone on the board has an actual one. Just gotta perswade them to loan it for a bit. Whats the diff between the mugen and si spoiler? I said SI spoiler because there are "of much abundance."
