Not a big fan of the spoiler but it looks OK, a million times better than on the 5g

Thought this was cleared up by now.

This isn't 4th Gen Lude Generation.

You have to respect the community as a whole, 'banter' is fine and people will always have different preferences. MY personal preference is 5th gens, but I still like and respect all other gens and I don't slate them.

Comments like yours just aren't needed.

Yea, there will always be that 4th vs 5th debate, it's all part the fun. End of the day though, I'm sure majority on here will admit, if you put the front half of a 4th gen, with the rear half of the 5th gen, dash of the 4th gen but interior space of the 5th gen, ATTS on there too, that would be the car that Honda should have made from 1991 for the next 10 years, not half n half between the 4th and 5th! :lol:


Rob, even you have to admit that a wing as rounded and curvaceous as that would not suit a car as sharp and angled as the 5th gen. The 4th gen pulls it off cos it's very rounded, curvy car, a typical early 90's jap car really with no angles at all. Vice versa, the more angled spoilers like the SiR mid spoiler, which is basically a parallelogram, suits the 5th gen spot on, but wouldn't suit the 4th gen in a million years, as it's the wrong shape for the car.

i dont even see what the problem with this post is? he isnt slating the 5th gen is he? hes saying an aftermarket spoiler this style looks better on a 4th gen than a 5th gen? thats just his personal opinion! not exactly a stab to the heart of all 5th gen owners :lol:

Horses for courses Rob, the 5th has advantages over the 4th such as interior space, ATTS and it's a younger car. I just think that spoiler doesn't suit the 5th, where as the 17" Motegi alloys look awesome on but not on the 4th.

No offence intended
