Ask yourself this, will you be keeping the OEM wing. You may end up going with another trunk spoiler or go spoiler-less.

-eBay, but which one? I'm trying to find the Mac Blick replica spoiler but can't find it...

-Yes I'm keeping the OEM spoiler that's why I want a roof spoiler that would flow with the OEM wing.

I saw that one too when I typed gs430 roof spoiler... Is that really the Mac Blick replica? I recall a guy paid $100+ for the replica NON-painted too.

That one has been sold I believe...Plus 200 is too much and I need to repaint it.

This is the one I'm talking about

He didn't indicate if it was sold or not so if your interested in it I would pm him. I just posted it because it was a different type of spoiler and he has the oem wing to go with it.

That second link you posted, the spoiler looks more like a trunk lip spoiler and I wouldn't get it as a roof spoiler. Just my two cents. Good luck with your search!

I've been pondering this same question the last couple days. GS4_Fiend, hope you don't mind if I throw this out there in your thread. Had a question for those who have a roof spoiler and subs, since the spoiler attaches to the rear glass have you have any problems with the roof spoiler coming loose due to flexing/vibration of the rear window?

I have had my Blick replica installed for a year now with no issues. I do not think the glass flexes that much where the spoiler mounts. I have a single Boston Acoustic 12" so others with more elaborate set-ups may want to chime in.

IMO again In My Opinion only, the roof spoiler is one ugly thing to do to a GS.
