Default carbon fiber rear spoiler

Hey guys, I have a charcoal 2006 IS350 and was thinking about getting a carbon fiber rear spoiler but don't know too much about that stuff. I was just wondering if any of you know a good brand or type to get and whats a reasonable price for one. I already have my rear spoiler wrapped and don't really like it so wrapping is out of the question, last thing, how would you install it?

I'm a little confused. You say you are looking for a rear spoiler in CF but state that you already have a rear spoiler wrapped in CF...

Are you looking for a roof spoiler in CF? If so, you can find roof spoilers on ebay already painted for around $70 or even cheaper. The CF roof spoilers are closer to $100. You can usually find a roof spoiler in the classifieds section of this forum. They usually tend to pop up once in awhile.

I forget the name of the ebay seller that everyone on the forum has purchased a roof spoiler from. I'll post up a name when the name comes back to me.

You can always do a search, there have been many threads started concerning roof spoilers.

You would install the roof spoiler by applying 3M tape, the one with the red back that holds up to 5lbs. It shouldn't take longer than 15 minutes to carefully clean the surface of the rear window, apply the tape and spoiler.

Good luck.

you can get a CF spoiler already wrapped like he said but if you have one you cf wrap it yourself if you use this: it shouldn't be hard:
