I'm assuming you have a 2014+ ISF that came with the carbon fiber spoiler.

Otherwise, WALD carbon trunk spoiler.

Let us know.

If you wanna stay stockish - there is a pretty nice looking Ebay spoiler available.

Not sure if the core spoiler is a rep or not but fitment is great, and I think for $170 its a great deal for the product I received.

Yes that's what I'm looking for but anyone know if they make a real carbon fiber one? What's the sellers handle on ebay?

Do the Ebay CF spoilers come with the bottom tabs attached so you can just click them right into the OEM holes? or can you only hold it down with 3M Tape?

I do not have one, but it looks like it has 2 screw tabs and double sided tape.

You can get a used Wald spoiler for 500 instead.

Short of finding an actual OEM Carbon spoiler from a '14 (which is possible, but difficult and may take awhile... AMHIK ) your next best bet IMO would be to talk to Maizz and see if you can convince him to do you a favor and lay carbon over the OEM spoiler he has for sale if you pay him extra. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/market/928856

He's been known to make CF parts in the past but not sure if he's still in the game. Might be willing though... worth a shot... Nothing fits more OEM than OEM (or lightly modified OEM in this case). Would definitely cost more than the cheap eBay reps but likely still less than the Wald or VIS ones referenced above.

I lol’d when I read this.. thanks. Other than my own projects, I’m out of the game.

I haven’t seen the ISF style eBay ones in person, but I have a painted Wald rep that fit really well. Outside of the authentic/replica debate, I’m not opposed to the eBay reps using just 3M.

Aw, damn... that is unfortunate for the F community. You made some awesome stuff man.

I had an eBay rep one first and it looked decent, but I never was fond of the tape only mounting. If you don't mind that then it's not bad, especially for how cheap they are.
