The pearl whites are pretty difficult to match so unless your car is a newer model or you aren't **** about it, I'd advise purchasing an unpainted one (if you end up buying from eBay) and having it painted.

I have one that I may be putting up for sale soon. The paint match is a near perfect match when it's nice and sunny out but, looks noticeably different when it's raining (not sure why). Like Lexitegra said though, it's going to be difficult matching a pearl color.

i have a 2010 that i barely drive so i think the paint should be pretty good. i saw that one on ebay for 85 but the add says he is away and wont be able to do business until may something.....just wondering if anyone had one they want to get rid of. i dont even know why i need nor why i want this. i guess its because im done with everything else and just wanted the feeling of a new mod coming in the mail....lol

Yeah, I think someone compared the eBay roof spoiler to a newer ISx50. The match was a heck of a lot better since the paint was new and wasn't exposed to the sun for years. The mod bug will never go away. You'll always want to do something to the car, even it's just a small mod...

Yeah that was me

Prepainted roof spoiler on '10 IS250...



Prepainted roof spoiler on my '07 IS250



'10 matches much better since its not been out in the sun for nearly as long as my '07 has. Even if you get it unpainted and have it painted to match, its gonna be a very hard match since the rest of your car will have a bit of sun fade compared to the newly repainted areas. It's really not noticeable on other cars, but on SFP its very apparent, especially in the light lol. I myself am gonna do the blackout roof, so i'll just blackout the roof spoiler too..
