This price increase is very dramatic and as a result, we are suspending any pending orders for this item until further clarification can be made with Lexus on this situation. We apologize for this inconvenience and will be refunding all monies transferred for your transaction.

We will also keep you informed as both availability and pricing should a favorable change occur, so you can make an informed decision with regards to purchasing this item in the future. Thank you for being a loyal Sewell Parts customer."

So now I'll be installing my Robson design Spoiler instead, which is identical to the OEM one apart from having no clips on the bottom, but I don't care that much now and will just try and stick it on well.
They really can't spell money ? Sad is there a phone number to contact sewell by or should I just call sewell of Texas ? I'm guessing it's the same place?

I saw one on eBay yesterday for $1250.00. Not mine, I am still trying to decide if I want to bling out my car with a bunch of carbon.

The spoiler alone would look lame, but if I did a front lip, diffuser, etc, the spoiler could really tie the room together, man.

Yea I saw the same one. Did you read the story behind why he's selling it.
Like come on dude we all know he bought it at sewell at $260 just be honest !

But that said I would never pay that much for something I all ready have rather get parts I don't have.

Fiction writing skills aside, it will be interesting to see if it sells at that price.

You realize how ridiculous that sounds right? So say you wanted to buy a share of Google, does that mean you won't pay a dime more than the IPO price?

Same situation... You missed your chance to get a share of the spoilers at a cheap price.

This makes me laugh " I recently took ownership of a 2014 ISF and when it was ordered I requested to have this spoiler included separately as I was not sure if I wanted this or an aftermarket spoiler; I decided to sell this spoiler" would lexus even allow such request? I think not lol

Haha I don't sound ridiculous I was talking about the used one that joe Z made a comment about. No if you would congrats but looks like no one even put a bid on that spoiler why would I pay more then it's worth I spoke with my dealer and be said it was supposed to be $100 than the painted original spoiler.

I put my order in the price was right if I don't get it I don't I have the same spoiler why would I pay 1k for it to be carbon fiber when I could send it out to a friend at shadow craft USA and do my original for a lot less !

And btw that looks like it's your spoiler your from Rhode Island and that seller is same.
IMO should have just stuck with the true story!

Lol not my spoiler man. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say there's probably more than one ISF owner in RI. I know of at least one on the forum.

Now I'm wondering why I have not received any updates or refund from Sewell. I put in my order on 12/22/2013. Last info is still ready to ship.

JT2MA71 I'd suggest calling them and they'll probably tell you there's been a price increase.

That's what happened to me and I ordered mine on the 12/14/2013.
