those spoilers are the best looking to put on an es3. But make sure it stretches to cover the whole trunk instead of like the acura in the pick, then it wouldn't look stock

I got one for my sc300. I havnt installed it yet.. but fitment is awesome. Its just a plastic spoiler thing, nothing expensive or fancy and looks like door trim, but looks great when painted!!!!!!!!!!!

damn i love your car 3rd element. mad clean! i think u should invest in some HIDs. they look real nice with the contrast between the yellow fogs and the blue from the hids.

anyways, thx for the responses

I am a college student and i want to save some money on paint. What if i spray paint it black and clear coat it? Do you think it would match or would it look like ****?

Default I Like it

I think it would look good. Its understated and would fit the car very nice.

On the spoilers that I'm used to and prefer, they extend past the trunk just a inch or two when they come out of the factory, i think. I've might've not stated it correctly but thanks 3rdelement fot the pics. I might buy me one now versus the one for $300 at l-tunedparts.com Here is the link http://www.l-tunedparts.com/product/?id=1602. If you notice that one covers the whole trunk and in my opinion looks better than the one found on ebay, but you can't beat the price.

Are these both the same style M3 rear-deck spoilers? They seem slightly different to me!

I think it looks good for earlier gen. ES's! In-fact a few NSX-owners have these spoiler's on the NSX's fixed-rear deck wing.
