Spoiler Possibility
Im going to get rid of the stock rear spoiler without a doubt and wanted to get a lip style spoiler for the back or rock the wingless look. I came across this on ebay:
00 01 02 03 04 05 Lexus IS300 AIT JDM TRD Trunk Spoiler | eBay

I know its not made for our cars, but I was just curious to know from you guys as to what you think would need to be modified to make this work. I honestly think that if it could be pulled off, it would look really good on the b14 chasis. Lmk what you guys think.

Im also looking at this one. I will most likely be the guinea pig for this one and let you all know how it goes. Wont be anytime soon, but I will keep you all posted once the time comes around.

I think the 2nd one will look better on the b14, the other one sticks out too far imo.

I agree...The first option would just be too much. Something very low key like the second option looks better.

I actually have the first one. Purchased it a while ago and been waiting for some better weather before doing some work to get it to fit. I did a mock up though (its for the b14 sedan though).


Test fit:





There is a gap on the trunk which needs to be either sanded flat and the spoiler needs to be cut maybe an inch or two in the middle, since the ends hang off a little.

Looks pretty good. Once you get the middle portion settled out and leveled off with the rest of the trunk, it will look nice. Im still unsure of where to go. I want something more low key, and am beginning to like the e36 lip style spoilers.

Thank you sir. I will be keeping everyone updated once it is done. I personally think the e36 m3 spoiler will look the best and actually have acess to an e36 m3 to take measurements on. Although this wont be done anytime soon, it will be done for sure. But like I said, everyone will be kept in the loop.

its decent spoiler. I like the low key m3 is a better option.
