You can order the roof spoiler from here:

http://www.l-tunedparts.com/product/?id=2408

They can arrange painting for you for $125. Installation is by yourself using 3M double sided tape (the red backed type). Allow plenty of time to get this part as production is very limited and delivery is s-l-o-w.

 

Thank you Evitzee. Yes, I already viewed that site and all of the IS options. It is amazing how strong the 3M double back tape is. Considering the force placed on the roof spoiler at speed, let alone the elements (hot, cold, water). Does the tape really hold up over the years?

 

I hope so, as that is the only way to attach the roof spoiler. I'm still waiting for mine, but everyone who uses this tape says its stronger than a gorilla. Some people use it to attach the rear lip spoiler and the front lip spoiler, too. Same type of tape is used to attach the rear emblems on cars, and they don't show any sign of wearing out after many years of car washes and rain. So I imagine it is pretty strong.

 

it is the same tape people have been using for automotive to install spoilers, body kits, door moldings, etc. 3M exterior tape is very strong.

The main thing you must use is 3M adhesion promoter and 3M Wax and Tar remover.

Also, you must let the tape cure for atleast 2 days before letting it touch water again.

 

Darren, that looks amazing. Congrats on the wheels and kit - your car has really gone through a transformation since the last time I saw it!!

Taking notes here. Thank you! Very good info guys. Cure for 2 days--->ouch! Good thing I have a few other cars in the garage to drive.

 

Your car looks great

 

Yeah it is minor stuff.

A lot of people neglect cure time when it comes to 3M double sided tape.

Darren, hook it up with the pics on the gap for the Lexon Spoiler. See post # 15.

I'm waiting for my roof spoiler from Carson.

Some how they got Tungsten Pearl and GFM mixed up. Sent me the wrong one.

I hope pokey didnt do the swap.

I need to know before I mount the spoiler.

 

Hey guys, quick question about Carson. What makes Carson so special that they can get all of these items as opposed to the local Lexus dealer?

 

According to Carson Toyota, aka L-Tuned Parts, they are the authorized retailer for Lexon, which is the manufacture for these roof spoilers.

From what I have seen, Carson Toyota offers the best pricing for this part.

Despite the authorized retailer status, as a smart shopper, I tend to go through the best price offered. Not to mention they are reputable as well.

 

Well, first of all, Carson is not a Lexus dealer, they're a Toyota dealer... More importantly though, they are one of the premier importers of JDM parts, both OEM and aftermarket. You won't find ANY of these types of items at your local Lexus dealership.

I was just swept off my feet.......I love the rear diffuser, it gives it a more of an aggersive stance.

 

It sure does look great!
