Default GS Spoiler - Which One?

Hi guys,

Which spolier do you suggest I should fit on the GS350? I would rather not drill but use 3M taping instead, which I believe doesn't damage the paint.

What spoilers have you guys fitted? Can I simply fit the same one that comes on the F Sport? Does it require drilling?

You will get several opinions here regarding the mounting of the spoiler. I agree with you, I prefer tape over drilling. The OEM one from the factory comes drilled. I have mounted several spoilers using a good 3M double sided tape without issue. I prefer this mode because it is easily removable if one desires to do so. Also, the mounting can be done without concern of damaging the trunk or spending the extra money and going to a body shop.

You can mount the OEM spoiler without drilling the holes. Just ask the shop to remove the screws from the spoiler, and then just mount it using the 3M tape.

Too bad the GS trunk doesn't have the design of the '14 IS.That design looks great and no add on look.
