It's not painted if that makes a difference to you.

I did the painted version of this through CarID at http://www.carid.com/2013-lexus-gs-s...er-941641.html

I'd recommend it all day long.

If you go that route, don't forget to post pick. I would like to see the quality on them.

Looks like it's a Wald replica. If you really want a sleek looking tail, mold it into the trunk lid. It looks killer molded.

Does that one really look like the Fsport spoiler? Mounted using double sided tape?

The seller ask for the paint code for my black GS, probably additional cost to paint

Yep, I did a lot of research to ensure it wasn't the non-F Sport spoiler that I was buying and ultimately installing. Perfect match on all accounts.

Sorry OP for hijacking your thread. Several questions for larry13 . . . . . . . did you have to call them to get a price as I don't see any pricing info on their website? Secondly, did you do the install yourself? If you did, did the spoiler come with drilling and tape options, or did you have to request one or the other? Thx.

i called them directly. i will say i have a 3IS but saw this post and thought i would comment. it comes with double sided tape and mine could be drilled on each end. however i opted not to drill and use the tape and urathane instead. a shop threw it on for me as i was having other work done. sorry OP.

So my wife suprised me for Father's Day and ordered me the OEM GS spoiler

After opening up the box, I think I definitely want to install without the screws and just use the double-sided tape. Just incase I want to change spoilers ect... in the future. The spoiler already comes with a few screw studs sticking out of the spoiler to mount, anyway to remove them or do I need to shave them down?

Keep us posted on this. I look at these damn spoilers every day. I have seen a couple of GS's around where I live that have spoilers and I like the look.
