I am thinking to get a spoon style hardtop. I see the seibon's one is way cheaper than spoon but I am wondering how is the fitment for seibon. Should I buy seibon and save the money for something else or just buy spoon's one.

 

I saw either spoon for VIS in person and it was bad. The owner also complained about it rattling and having wind noise. Authentic will always be your best bet but I have also heard good thing about the Shine spoon rep though never seen one in person.

I have a shine rep on my car and overall im very pleased with it I just had to experiment a bit with different seals and such but fitment is excellent

 

I recently got a shine spoon style hardtop and am quite happy with it obviously isn't perfect fitment but definitely something i can work with

 

Thank you for all of the suggestion. I am going to search about the shine and think about it.

 

The authentic spoon top fits horribly the so does the shine spoon. It was never meant to be a daily driver hard top so you will see fitment issues and hear road noise ect. Now I loved mine and its something I would buy if I had another S but don't expect it to fit anywhere near OEM because they are both night and day. You can find a lot of other threads people complaining about the fitment of authentic spoon tops as well. Shine are a very good company to deal with though I got the spoon rep front and rear bumper through them and both fit spot on with no work at all except for putting the bolts in.

 

Fortunately I have a 08 R32 for my daily drive so I am planning to build my S as a track car with spoon body style. I know the OEM and authentic Mugen has best fitment for S. I didn't know Spoon's hard top fitment is horribly bad. This surprise me since spoon is the third major Honda after market part brand.
