Default Track edition spoiler

Hey ya’ll ! I’m sure we all, if not most of us follow Lexus Racing. Have you guys seen the RCF “F” CF spoiler on our cars? Idk about you, but that spoiler looks amazing on the 500! Has anyone bought one yet, and if you did, are the holes from our OEM spoiler a direct fit???

This is one mod where I’m considering doing in the near future. I have seen non OEM track edition spoilers for sale but unsure which route to take. I’m sure Lexus would charge an arm and a leg for that spoiler.

Let’s discuss !

I have heavily looked into it, but cost per looks just isn't there yet.

The RCF track edition spoiler is not sold. It's only obtainable by people working directly with Lexus racing, or Lexus (usually people who are part of their social media racing stuff). It's possible you may be able to find someone selling it used, but expect to pay at least $5k for it, but I wouldn't consider $10k out of the question since they are so rare.

The closest thing you can get is the Artisan Spirits GT wing, but that is $2,250 and just the beginning of the troubles.

The OEM deck lid spoiler has I believe 6 holes drilled into the trunk, so expect to do some body work to fill in the remaining holes. If I had an endless supply of money, I would maybe look into buying a new IS 300 trunk without the deck lid (if they still make them without the spoiler), verify they fit with a 500, pray for matching paint then drill the holes required for the Artisan Spirits wring.

Adding to what was said here, I've seen all the various Lexus Racing IS500s (2022 Grecian, 2023 Molten Pearl, and 2024 Blue Flame) in person and what isn't obvious in pictures is that the holes from the spoilers are all very noticeable. For the sake of water intrusion they put vinyl of a similar color to cover the holes, but it really looks like doodoo. If you were to do it and somehow obtain a spoiler, definitely factor in filling the holes and doing proper body / paint work.

Default Spoiler

You can buy the spoiler from Lexus. For the 500 the base model has a trunk option with no holes in it, I purchased one the bought the IS 350 dynamic handling package carbon Fiber Spoiler, drilled the holes and had it painted, I have a thread in the 500 Forum. I’m in the process of buying a Track Edition spoiler and another trunk to mount it up.

Good God my thoughts exactly. First impression was it was a photoshopped joke.

I've seen worse, but I wonder what the angle of attack is on the airfoil given that it wasn't designed to be bolted onto our trunks and isn't adjustable in any way.

I feel like if the car was black/gray/silver the spoiler would look better... those aftermarket wheels look fantastic though

How many of these IS500 hot lap cars did Lexus make for the IMSA events?

I think they’re the Enkei TSR-X wheels. Pretty reasonable price wise. Was thinking about getting 20” in the bronze for my black IS500

Had to fab some custom footings and made some nice underside brackets to make it work…
