Rear Spoiler Lip
We signed the deal yesterday on a Tungsten Pearl and it should be in sometime next week. Does anyone have the rear spoiler lip? I think I saw one on an ES350 as we were leaving and I liked it. thanks.

I guess they have changed as far as installing these spoilers at the factory. I noticed in the Los Angeles area they have a package that includes a lip spoiler.......but not on the East Coast. Yup, Lexus keep changing.

hmm, don't forget the OEM spoiler comes pre-painted already, so if there's no drilling require (otherwise using mounting tape to attach on to the trunk), I see a DIY project coming! Let's organize a GROUP BUY, lol

Actually did more search and found following on Autospies. Very different from that OEM spoiler...
So, how about tinting. Anybody got that for their ES350 from dealer?

damn, I got it all from here: http://www.autospies.com/article/ind...5&categoryId=1
I guess they mixed it up with other ES350 pictures (and I was wondering why all the shots with a spoiler are on a different color car LOL!!!). BTW, that review of ES350 is terrible, done by some Detroit woman reporter who definitely got off the wrong side of the bed...
