Default Roof spoiler pics

I was thinking of doing a roof spoiler for my 3GS. I was wondering if you guys have pics of your car with a roof spoilers. It seem that the carson tuned is the smallest and the most conservative. I like the look and the price is right. I dont want a big *** 7 series kind of roof spoiler. any thought , suggestions, or pics

Nice...matches well with the trunk spoiler. I assume this sits on the window...and not the roof?

When you ordered the roof spoiler, did it come as the same color as your car? Or did you have to get it painted? If so who did you have paint it for you?
I'm thinking of getting a roof spoiler for my matador red, just need to know if i'm going to have to get it painted when i order it.

Also was the installation easy? how does it mount above the window?

Mine's the same as Jokies.... ( I bought mine because of him... Thanks!!!!)

It came unpainted from l-tuned and I got the local lexus dealership to paint it. Turned out okay... little "orange-peel".... but I'm happy with it.
