Talking Well I finally ordered my spoilers!!!

Well after thoughtful and stressed decisions I finally ordered my roof spoiler and my rear spoiler!!!! So now I wont bother anyone with all these spoiler threads I ordered the L-sportline roof spoiler through Carson Toyota, and I ordered the Wings west 3 peice spoiler through Wings West itself. The lip spoiler is back ordered and wont arrive for about 3 weeks, but on the other hand the roof spoiler should be here friday. Then just have to get them painted, then all post pics.....

i don't think they used bolts, if i remember they used an adhesive instaed of the double tape, it was when i 1st got the car 2 year i ago i got the spoiler and had my brother take it his shop and they did it, i wasn't there and he paid as a b-day gift, so i'm not a 100% sure...

Painting cost will vary but expect to pay ~$300 for a good job especially with PDW.

I agree. Take it somewhere that can match it well.
