Default Spoiler Suggestions

Just picked up a GX470... So far everything about the truck is awesome. But like all my toys its time to modify it. For starters I've removed the 3rd row seats and ordered an Xtreme HID kit from Xenon Depot. Next on my list is a rear spoiler. I'm thinking of going with an OEM spoiler. Is there anyway to get one other than from the local dealer (they want $625 for it... seemed high). I could go for a used OEM spoiler as long as its in good condition. Any Suggestions?

I bought one on ebay a few years ago...they painted it to the manufacturers color spec. Still looks the same as the day i installed and its much cheaper then going OEM.

do a search on my handle kphu and you should see my posts.

I have an OEM one I took off that I would sell.
My color is silver pine.

Yes I am one of the few that think they are ugly and have no function.

Having the first model year and got it without the spoiler, I was in the same position. I bought a non-oem, color matched. When it arived, I did not like the fit and finish, so it went back. I got an OEM part on-line and installed it. Very easy, although drilling into the door was a bit un-nerving. After the first hole, it was fine and still looks like she came from the factory with it.

I also did the HID up-grade and was happy with it. The 3rd row seat hang on the wall in the garage most of the time.
