Thanks in advance.

3 of the 4 holes lined up, but the 3 are more than enough to hold the spoiler on the car pretty well. for $100, painted and shipped, i was definitely happy with it. do it.

Very interesting... I noticed that the Stock spolier and the one off e-bay extend the angled flare in the body panel. The other example would caue about a 30 degree change in that line, and the one on the Fit is a wing and would require alot more work to make it fit right, along with the body work to plug holes no longer needed, etc.

I'm gonna keep on eye on this one and see what else comes out in the no to distant future!

I gotta find the one I saw on a new 4 door Yaris. was like the one I just posted. And because someone said it, yer gonna have to start using your imagination to "see" what parts would look like on your car. we can;t be waiting ofr them to just magically show up. I think it will look good. BUT, the car will need to be dropped signifacantly to pull it off. Blade style wings look stupid when the cars are high off the ground.

Hi, new here!

Just bought the spoiler from that eBay store for my super white xD today, I'll post some pictures up of the install and the final result once it comes in.

Awesome! First hand experience with the vendor, the part quality and the install are always great!

I would like to see a spoiler for the D that looks like the upgrade spoiler for the xB... maybe mix in the first gen xB spoiler with it....

my 2 cents

lol, my mistake, I meant a mix of the first gen and the second...

I like the space between the the spoiler and the hatch on the xB1 and I like the little wings on the ends of the xB2's spoiler...

I think that's what turned me off of the OEM one. but having a spoiler like that on my xB1 I'm kinda used to that look. xD would look cool if the OEM spoiler wrapped down the ends

Well it arrived and I had it inspected...

Figured out where the bolts were (there's 4).

Just pulled the stock one straight out and bolted the new one in. End result is awesome! Totally recommend! Same thing happened that one out of the four bolts didn't align, but I just drilled a new one.

Ditto
