Default OEM rear spoiler,

I am planning on buying the OEM rear spoiler for my 08 IS250 and was wondering, should I get it drilled or just use 3M tape. Is the paint spot on or is it off? Also I'm wondering how come the SFP is cheaper then a few colors in there.

Drill method + 3m tape. That way you don't have to worry about it. I'm assuming its cheaper because Sewell already has them factory painted, which is spot on. It cost more to have one repainted another color.

I'd rather spend the $30 then have an off centered spoiler. If you're installing it yourself, you're already saving money. I'd say get it.

What does that template really do? Is it like a blueprint that shows you how to basically install it like how the dealer would??

Pretty much. Shows you the exact placement and where to drill if I remember correctly. Eliminates the guess work.
