Cool Carbon Fiber Rear Roof Spoiler

Just wondering if anyone bought a Carbon Fiber Roof Spoiler, and if its cheaper somewhere else, I see average price on Ebay is like $80.

Such as: http://www.ebay.com/itm/06-10-IS250-350-F-Rear-Window-Roof-Spoiler-Carbon-Fiber-Sport-Racing-JDM-Style-/170869635391?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Make%3ALexus%7CYear%3A2010%7CModel%3AIS250&hash=item27c89fb93f&vxp=mtr

Also is there a spoiler for the front, just curious not sure if I would do it, but if anyone has one, can I see a picture of how it looks

Thanks

I think there's been a few members that have the CF roof spoiler, try to search. What do you mean by spoiler in the front?

Thanks for the heads up. I did notice that the clear coat was somewhat wacky, I guess I'll contact them first thing tomorrow.

Can't beat that, $40 after the 50% refund? it's like you stole from them...after you gave them $40...

Don't own one but from what i read, you should shoot a few layers of clear on it before installing. Apparently some members experienced their CF spoilers yellowing in 1-2 years

Looks like this 1 is on sale
http://www.motorboneinc.com/moreinfo...OOF-LEXIS06-BK

This one is cheap too
http://www.ebay.com/itm/06-11-IS-F-2...53b593&vxp=mtr

I wonder how the quality is on these. I've seen others go up to hundreds of dollars.

has anyone actually gotten more clear put on these? If so what was the cost? Or has anyone tried to clear it themselves with the spray on DIY clear? how did that work out?

The second one is the one that I got. Fitment was spot on and overall its pretty nice so far. There is not enough clear coat so its not really shiny but it goes well with my obsidian. I'll post pics tomorrow once I wash my car.
