Spoiler advice for 2017 86

How's it going?

I'm looking for a spoiler for my 86, preferably the trd one or at least that style. Has anyone any experience with the cheaper ones on eBay? http://m.ebay.com/itm/381814729102

Are they any good or should I just try and get a genuine trd one?

And is the trunk the same shape on the 86 as it is on the frs? And is the whiteout the same color white as the halo version?

Thanks for the help!

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your new 86! I can help answer most of your questions, as I have a genuine TRD spoiler.

1) Review: I love the fit and finish of the genuine spoiler, it's great and comes with weather stripping to keep moisture from getting underneath. The lip look on the back perfectly compliments the lines in my opinion. I bought mine from japanparts.com

2) The 86/BRZ/FR-S trunk shape is identical, so spoilers are compatible across all 3.

3) Halo is NOT the same colour as whiteout, the hue of whiteout is more pearl, just FYI.

4) I can't speak for non-genuine TRD spoilers, but there are some members here who love them. @Mr.Impreza may be able to help with that and point you to a legit source to buy them.

@Rakshaa Thanks for the advice! With the trd spoiler from japanparts did you have to drill holes in your trunk or did you just use 3m tape?

No problem!

You can drill holes of you want (instructions recommend doing so) but mine is held with the 3M tape that it came with plus some urethane paste to hold it down. No issues in 3 years and 100k kms with it coming off

Pics from today, not great but you get the idea. If you want close ups or different angles let me know.

There is only one piece to it for the JDM TRD spoiler.

You might be referring to the RS 1.0 spoiler, but you can only order that from a dealer with an RS 1.0 VIN. That one is a different design and has parts on the side.

I really like the 2017 BRZ spoiler. Not sure if it is in your price range.

I've been trying to figure out the name cause I love how it looks. I can get one pre-painted in firestorm red but my car is ablaze red...you think it'll be noticeable?
