Technique is right -- 2 hours work for installing this spoiler is highway robbery. I added rear door sill scuff plates to my Lincoln using the double-sided molding tape STIG mentioned, and it was about 15 minutes of work.

I agree. They OVER CHARGED you because you are a GIRL. That's just WRONG!

I just received my spoiler from the my.is store ($199) and my dealer is charging me $179 for the install.

All you needed to mention was Longo. 'nuff said. Just demand for the CORRECT color code spoiler installed onto your car! Maybe you can ask for more freebies by saying I posted this on ClubLexus. j/k
