after all that my poor car has been goin thru....i was like r u serious?

The only thing interesting I could find out there was the Blitz Ricey wing (this guy on overboost has it, only place ive ever really seen it) and the Veilside (not the exe).

Im leaning toward the veilside....found if for $560. anyone know where it would be cheaper?

i kinda want the veilside hood now too.....

It sucks cuz a spoiler is so simple...i was happy with the one on there and if im gonna spend like 200 for a factory-like replacement I feel like i might as well invest and get something different.

Anyone have suggestions outside of blitz and veilside?
Call up Hi-Tech Auto Salon in RI...i think he can get u a good price on the veilside spoiler not the executive.

Rod Millen also sells a slightly more agressive version of the factory spoiler; not just the lip you were talking about.

The RMM sides extend towards the rear window and the rear part of the lip extends longer and slightly up. It's hard to tell in the photos, but people I know who have the factory spoiler can tell my RMM is different right away.

This will also fit over your factory holes as well.

You can get it from Steve Ganz for less, than ordering it directly from www.rodmillenstore.com .

Oops.

I should have said Steve at Carson Toyota, you know the one sponsoring the GS forums, often has a banner flashing at the top of the page and is also listed in the approved vendor section?

You should be able to find him from the info I just gave out .

Just shoot an e-mail to SupraTRD. That's Steve.

I could've sworn I saw a silver Veilside rear spoiler for sale in the GS forum for $350 about a couple of weeks ago by CyberGS( I think?).
