Man I love that look, thanks for posting. Will definitely be putting that on mine. I’d love to see how the hood looks against the Incognito color too.

I messaged you privately as well, but you look like you already got the lowering springs and spacers on as well, really tightens up the look. Great job!

Where are you getting the spacers from, I guess anywhere as long as it’s 15mm?

Default Waiting…

Hi,

Waiting on mine to ship. Hopefully in the next two week. I paid for it mid last month, but I have been waiting for about 3 months now.

Default Glue

Did you have glue under your OEM spoiler? What hardware (sealant, plastic grommets..)did the spoiler come with?

Did you have to drill the extra holes into the trunk? That scares me.

I tried attempting to remove the OEM spoiler and it had 3M tape underneath. Im looking forward to get the seibon cf spoiler but wanted to make sure it fit on my 350.

So happy with this product. Does anyone have a pic with the carbon hood install. I am waiting on mine to ship, but I would love a preview.

I just ordered/received the OEM Carbon Fiber spoiler that only comes with the IS 350 F Sport Dynamic handling package. $754 shipped from Lexus and it's beautiful. Thicker, and wider front to back than the OEM one plus its OEM Lexus CF which is excellent quality. Lexus however will not sell it to sell it, they want to confirm you actually have the IS350 F sport Dynamic Handling Package before they replace it. There might be a white lie involved in this on my part. I had to get creative.

That's odd that they won't sell it to you unless you have the 350 DHP. Insert the "shut up and take my money" meme.

this is the screen they get and won’t do it unless you own that vehicle, I had to keep shopping around until someone would do it by vin only. The ones that would not do it wanted me to show registration of the vin I was providing.

I can see why dealers wouldn't want to sell the CF spoiler unless you owned the IS 350 DHP, I mean you wouldn't want to mess with the electronics and also risk voiding the warranty by having an engine gasket blow up - End of sarcasm! *seriously shaking my head*

i was hoping the holes would be the same between the two of them, but now I'm not sure. Thanks for the picture of the original one, it helps.
