Default did gs300's ever come with spoilers

I am wondering if GS300's ever came with the spoiler as shown?

^^

To my knowledge, that spoiler is the 3 piece spoiler available only on the foreign versions of this car. The USDM gs300 was never given these.

But, I have seen these spoilers on some gs300s including my own.





I personally have no idea where these came from, where they originated i have clue, but i've only seen them on usdm gs300s...

hmmmm, so to find a lexus badge that'll fit inside the hole in the spoiler is going to be a pain in the rear,

i didn't think i saw any US gs300's come with that spoiler, but just wanted to be sure

yea, well, i don't neeed one, i just need to find the Lexus emblem that would fit within that wing instead of the toyota emblem, as i want to do a Lexus conversion on my aristo.

that spoiler made me buy the car, i'm so glad it came with it on, and didn't have to buy it and ship it over

The lx470 rear emblem will fit it perfectly. In my opinion the jdm 3 piece wing does not look right on a stock bodied car. It flows better when a kit is added.

oh, so you dont' like my car then, oh well, everyones opinion is thier own, i love my car, and looks aren't everything, cause in my opinion, that's the reason i bought the car, i HATE aristo's without them, i think they look cheap, and goofy, so i guess we're even i na way, everyone is entitled to thier own opinion

and thanks wald, i'm going to look for the lx470 one

lol i don't mean it like that! I like the way your car looks! I was agreeing with Wald's comment on how when the 3 piece spoiler is added, I immediately feel it is time to put a kit on as well. I think a kit looks weird on a gs300 without a spoiler, and vice versa.

I wasn't hating on your car buddy
