Default Spoiler upgrade!

Love the look! Fits the car so much better, and I’ve been bitter about the is350 dhp CF wing since I found out about it haha

^^ I assume it is not the OEM CF spoiler from the DHP right? I don't mind the one that is one the IS 500 to be honest. I would need to see a few more pics to make a formal opinion but in the end, the part that matters the most is how you feel about it. It's like how I changed my Enkei wheels for the 350 wheels, to me, it made me go from loving the car to BEING TOTALLY in love with the car. It is the subtle details that makes all the difference in the world.

May I ask the price paid??

^It's the Seibon CF hood and it runs for $880 on their website. I'm jealous. It looks great.

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

Yes, Seibon.

It is a perfect fit and it makes the car look so much better from the rear for me. It matches the “thick” rear fenders better and the lines are great. It is over double the height of the stock spoiler.

Goes with my build too, CF intake, CF mirror covers, CF lic plate surround, soon to have CF Bazooka tips on my RR Racing exhaust.

No drilling, just remove the old spoiler and bolt on the new one. Lined up perfect.

So the the 6 bolts matched up perfectly with the 6 holes from the previous 2 bolts and 4 push pins?

This looks awesome! Wondering if you had any shots of the whole car with the spoiler? Would love to see how it affects the aggressiveness/body shape

Looks good and avoids being as in your face as some of the other aftermarket options. Can you post a photo from directly behind?
