Yep.

* Takes longer to prep for paint and fit.
* Nowhere near as strong as the OEM polyurethane spoiler.
* High likelihood of cracking if used to close or lift the hatch.

Ok I'll spend the more money to get the polyurethane spoiler. I was looking at a site that will paint it then ship it. do you think that would be a good idea or just have someone paint it locally? in about 2 months I'm going to get the 98+ rear and front bumpers and have them painted. should i hold off and get the spoiler done with them or do you think getting it shipped it would be a good color match? A link to the website. http://www.cardata.com/spoilers/Acura_spoilers.htm

Best bet IMO is to buy the spoiler in primer only and paint the new bumpers and wing at once. You have no control over color match if you let them paint the spoiler separately.

I'm taking mine off my car, along with the front lip. Some lady backed into me over labor day weekend and put a nice trailor hitch shaped hole right where it says "Integra." I need a new bumper bad though, it was broken before I got hit. I'm going for a more subtle look really...
