Why are the 94-95 rear spoilers so hard to come by? I prefer the look of those over the 96-97 spoiler but cant find one anywhere other than aftermarket, the 96-97 are always for sale though. What gives?

I can get you one for about $120 plus shipping. It's not made by honda but who's gonna know, it's an oem replacement.

Yep, you are correct. They are primered black. I'm not sure how much shipping would cost, but due to the size, I'd expect to pay at least $25-$50 for shipping. Im out in Sacramento, CA.

I guess you missed the part where he said "I prefer the 94-95 over the 96-97"

You can get the aftermarket OEM style ones cheaper than $120 on Ebay. My question was originally about why finding a factory OEM 94-95 spoiler was so hard to find. Im fully aware of the OEM lookalikes.

I don't think Honda produces them anymore. About the only way you'll get that style is to get an aftermarket factory sytle wing. Last year I tried to get the actual Honda factory spoiler from the dealer...they told me they couldn't get them anymore.
