Default Trunk and Roof Spoiler ( Wing )

Hey guys

I have really been thinking about adding a trunk lip spoiler and/or roof spoiler just to change things up a little. So I was just wondering if anyone else has one or both and if so post pics and opinions. I don't want anything to crazy just something that will look more aggressive like a JZS147 F-Sport would look if Lexus actually made it.

Thanks in advance.

Here are what I was looking at.

I don't have one but those look really cool I think. They might actually add some aerodynamic effect too.

Well I took the plunge.....ordered the trunk and roof spoiler. The Trunk spoiler came in already and the roof spoiler is on the way. I am not really look for any down force or aerodynamic benefits but if some occur that will be cool but I doubt there will be.

I had a friend hold it in place so you will have to use tour imagination a little.





I just dropped it off to be painted so I hope to have it back early next week.

Looks pretty good. Its pretty hard to tell from those pictures but I think it might be better than the OE 3 piece spoiler.

Thanks!! I have never seen the 3 piece Aristo spoiler in person but from the pics I have seen I think my setup looks better....but I might be a little bias lol!

Thanks. The more I see it the more I like it.

The trunk spoiler is held on with 3M tape and seems pretty sturdy but I am trying to think of a good way to add reinforcement or maybe the 3M tape will be fine. Any ideas?

3M tape will be totally fine. We used to hang taxidermy with it! haha j/k I've never been hunting.
