Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2009 Honda Civic si Coupe
Question:
I see in the fit guide it fits a two door coupe Civic but I cant find specifically if it will fit my Si with the spoiler.

Generally, if a vehicle has a spoiler, Thule says it is a no-fit situation but not to worry because I have an excellent recommendation that will work with your 2009 Honda Civic Coupe si with the rear spoiler. You can use the Thule OutWay # TH45JV. The OutWay is the easiest to install and remove and comes with locks for both the rack and the bikes. This rack has a long reach to go over the spoiler. I have included a link to a video review featuring this rack for you.
If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would) then I recommend using bike adapter bar # 64005. This will allow you to carry those bikes more level and will provide better ground clearance. I have linked a video showing how the adapter works.
