Default (Help) Trying to identify a rear spoiler

Hi Folks,

I came across this nice looking rear lip spoiler (want). Anybody seen this one before or know where to get it? Or does it come off a different car? Looks kinda like the lip from a KIA Optima? it doesn't look like the spoiler from the Wings West kit. Sorry for the giant image.

That looks good, it looks like an Lexus IS spoiler. I have the UL version with ML so putting the usual ES spoiler is a problem because of where Lexus places the satelite puck on the trunk. The spoiler you show might work on my car as well, let me know if you find out what it is.

I agree. Comparing pics online, it looks a lot like the IS350 spoiler. $50 (unpainted) on ebay is not too bad. Must look more closely.

As you can see by my sig. we own an IS and an ES. To try to put this to bed, I did some measurements tonight. Both trunks are the same width, a bit over 4'. The emblems are slightly different. the one on the IS is recessed into a depression into the trunk and is 4.5" wide. the emblem on the ES is not depressed and is 4.0" wide. So, it does appear that the spoiler in the pict of the first post is an IS spoiler mounted on an ES.

Sorry to revive a dead thread, but in case anyone is wondering that spoiler is from DAR.

That spoiler looks ok, the rest not so much. Things don't fit very well and look odd on the ES. All IMO of course.
