Gotcha, I undersand. If it is any consolation. After I put the spoiler on, the car seemed complete for me. It was like scratching an itch and it was all better!

Had mine installed today. Agreed that hardest part was removing OEM spoiler. I was lucky as I have small hands and was able to squeeze in to get the push pins out and screw on the nuts. A long wrench or ratchet will help with the 2 side nuts on far left and right.

Those of you that have installed this Seibon spoiler, how's the view out the back using the rearview mirror? Does it stick up into your line of sight?

You can definitely see it, but it does not obstruct functional line of sight out the rear. I’ll try and take a photo later.

Does anyone know if the this spoiler comes clear coated? I can't find anything definitive that says it's got a uv protection clear coating. I've read that it could just be a glossy gel with no uv protection. I was gonna email seibon directly, but wanted to see if maybe you all knew.

The more I see these pictures, I think I need to add the spoiler to my wish list which is getting pretty long right now.

No kidding!

I’m trying to be the last/only non-modded dude out there, but some of these dudes are making it difficult! 😂

This guy’s mods are so damn tasteful and on point, it’s ridiculous.

I dont understand why so many of the aftermarket IS parts have some kind of fin looking part. Like on the mirror cap, its got that extra pointy part and on the lip it has that fin close to the wheel. What gives with these designs? IMO it takes away from the body of the IS.

I actually do not mind the Horned mirror caps. Not sure if I’d ever get them, but I kinda dig it.

Alot of people seem to like them, just not my flavor. This may sound dumb, I don't like aftermarket parts that look aftermarket.

The mirror caps is actually functional if you look at TRD Japan's website, that guy on youtube got the knock off version of it...
