Default Difference in spoilers?

Is there much of a difference between the f sport spoiler and the rear lip spoiler seen on other GS 350's?

I don't think there is a difference. I don't see a difference, at least not to the naked eye. Dude, go with the one that fits your version of the GS. it's not that hard a decision. I don't have the F-Sport. I hated the look of the front bumper without the fog lights, and couldn't see paying more money for a less attractive F-Sport when it isn't any roomier or quicker than the non-F-Sport. It didn't add up. But I do have a rear spoiler. It looks great. Get one.

F-sport one just sits atop the trunk with minimal extension on the rear face of the car. Non-f-sport extends more downwards towards the rear and has a notch to prevent covering the Lexus emblem. F sport spoiler looks cleaner IMHO, but probably isn't worth/doesn't look 500$ more (looks the same unless you look closely).

No real difference, dude. Just get the one for your version of the 4GS. Don't make it an agonizing decision when it's an easy one.

Ordered the one that's made for the GS 350 from sewelllexus.com for $231. Very good deal. Thanks for the input.

It sounds like the determining factor is aesthetics, not functionality. Or is there someone that feel the difference?
