HB Spoiler Q (Pic Request Maybe)

I'm probably going to get flamed for this one, especially since its my first post, however, I'm kind of curious here.
Has anyone ever seen a kouki S14 spoiler on a hatchback?

I can see it looking good in my head, but I'd like to see a picture, as i'm considering this setup at some point.

Anyways, thanks guys.

uh.... idk man. I thikn the hatchback looks gangsta enough without a spoiler. Personal tastes i guess. Go on need for speed underground. they have a spolier that looks CLOSE ENOUGH. Im not saying it looks good lol.

The image in my head doesnt look good. I dont think the curvatures would match well.

Yea, i was referring to the JDM one...
just didn't want to add to the flammage i was expecting for asking about it. haha.

and Zenki_sliderS14, I agree with you, the HB does look damn nice spoiler less, as thats the look I'm rocking at the moment, i just wanted to see a pic of the K's spoiler before I welded the bolt holes.

I wonder if the JDM K's wing will bolt right up to the factory spot on my 'vert?

I was thinking the same thing. That is a sexy spoiler.

lol spoiler battle son!!! OHHHH SHEEEEEIT.
Theres other options for the 13hatch..just have to look harder, come to think of it...ive rarely seen an hatch that isnt spoiler-less or rocking those carbon fiber wings. i thikn that oem "duckbill" looks okay to some extent..otherwise id rock it naked haha

Thats cause the coupe / convert got the better looking spoiler.
the factory HB one looks pretty terrible.
Zenki_Slider, I'm not going to rock the carbon fiber wing...
I'll probably end up just staying naked.
OR I'll go ahead and be one of the first to rock the s14 K's spoiler on a hatch, even though I'm SURE its been done.

Anyone have measurements of the S14's trunk width?

Really? You like the stock spoiler? Hmm... I really don't like it that much. It looks like a handle to lift it up when the stock gas shocks are dead and you can't open it from the inside because of it... Or maybe thats just MY vert

The hatch spoiler definitely is not a handle, the foam just starts to rip when you pull up on it lol.
