Does the Roof Spoiler for GE8 fit the US Fit?

Yes. The 2009 to 2013 US Fit is the GE8, and Go Tuning, the US distributor for Spoon, sells the Roof Spoiler for GE8 for the Fit. Spoon itself registers the 1.5 liter GE8 in RS form and the 1.3 liter GE6 G, with manual or CVT gearboxes.

Does it come painted?

No. The spoiler is unpainted FRP. Because Spoon uses wax during production, degrease it first, scuff it with about 800 grit wet paper, and fill any pinholes or small cracks with polyester putty and surfacer. After a test fit, paint it and let it dry naturally, as heat can distort the part.

No. This is an FRP part, built to be painted to match the body color. Spoon makes carbon roof spoilers for some Civic models, but for the second-generation Fit it lists this FRP version, which Go Tuning describes as having excellent fit and finish and which costs less to buy.

Does it improve aerodynamics?

No figures are published. Spoon gives no downforce or drag data for the GE Fit roof spoiler, so BA does not claim a measured gain. It is a styling part that extends the roofline of the hatch, best suited to a Fit already wearing other Spoon parts.

How difficult is installation?

Spoon does not publish fitting instructions for this spoiler. The realistic sequence is a test fit on the car, paint preparation, paint, then final mounting, so most owners hand it to a body shop that can match the color and set the spoiler evenly on the hatch.

Description

Spoon Sports Roof Spoiler for GE8 / GE6 Honda Fit

The Spoon Sports Roof Spoiler for GE8 and GE6 Honda Fit is an FRP spoiler for the second-generation hatchback, registered by Spoon for the 1.5 liter RS in every form Honda sold in Japan, with five-speed, six-speed or CVT, including the RS Highway Edition, and for the 1.3 liter G. Go Tuning describes its fit and finish as excellent. Spoon supplies it unpainted, with the same careful preparation steps it gives for its larger FRP body panels: degrease, scuff, fill and test fit before paint. Spoon publishes no aero data for it, so this is a styling part first. It sits most naturally on a GE8 that already wears other Spoon parts, and at 3.5 kg listed it adds little weight to the hatch. A US owner has a straightforward path too, since the 2009 to 2013 US Fit is the GE8.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
