Default Roof Spoiler

I'm planning to get a roof spoiler installed for my IS350. Been searching around ebay and found this one.


http://www.ebay.com/itm/06-12-Lexus-...fcb847&vxp=mtr

What do you guys think? Is it hard to install? Any DIYs out there?

Thanks

Clean the area prior to installing.

Test Fitment

Apply double sided tape on the spoiler.

Stick it on there.

Is that functional or is it just for looks?

Just for looks.

Install shouldn't take longer than 15-20 minutes. Like others have said. You need to properly clean the surface area of the rear window. Apply some 3M tape to the roof spoiler. Make sure you use the one that holds up to 5 lbs. Carefully align the spoiler with the rear window. Press down on the spoiler to make sure it sticks and is in place. Step back and admire your work for the next 5 minutes.

Its just for looks. Install is easier if you have a second set of hands to help you line it up
