Drilling required for 2002 oem spoiler installation?

[Ek9max]

Looking to add an oem spoiler to my winter beater for fun.

Saw these online and the price seems reasonable.

Is drilling required for the oem spoilers?

It is for 2012.

2002 is the model I have

Drilling is required.

This is an "OEM Style" spoiler. Honda never actually offered a rear spoiler for the 2002-2005 CRV's.

Are you sure? I'm pretty sure that they did....

This is all that was offered for 2002-2005.




The 1997-2001 had the style of spoiler you are looking at.

I'm still not convinced. I work at an acura dealership and we have a 2005 on our lot that has the same style spoiler. Traded in from a older woman that bought it new.....

I highly doubt that she went and got an aftermarket spoiler for her crv....

I am in canada though. Maybe we have different spoiler options. I have seen a number of these style spoilers on crv's around town.

Lizzurd is a parts guy at a Honda dealership. He seems pretty smart--then again he is a Leafs fan!

I am not going to argue with you over a spoiler. I have been selling Honda parts for 23 years. I have gone through all of the accessory books for 2002-2005 and it is not listed.

It wasn't that long ago that dealers were installing aftermarket spoilers on new cars. They were a third of the price of Honda spoilers and the dealers made more gross off of them.
