Stock Scion Rear Wing
 
I've been to a lot of the Tuesday night meets in Irvine and I have only seen one other person besides my car with the Scion rear spoiler. Why is it so rare? Any thoughts? Is it ugly? :/ I bought my car at South Coast Toyota and they had two on the lot with it installed.

Personally I just did what I could to get the Asphalt Auto. It just happened to be stripped of options, which I was ok with. Woulda paid for it had it been on there though.

This wasn't an option yet when I bought my car.

same here not an option

Mine came with a different one.. looks like a Five Axis. I did not pay extra for it either.

RT87 05-29-2013 02:50 PM

I don't like the look and wouldn't take one even for free, but that's me.

My experience (frs that I see in my area), about 40% or more have that stock scion spoiler. I think it just depends on the dealership - maybe they try to bump up the price wih the spoiler as an add on.

The reason I didn't buy the BRZ Limited is because it came with a spoiler. I know it's a matter of personal taste but I just don't like them on a pleasure car which FR-S is.

I will say of all the different spoilers out there I think that one looks the best.

My firestorm came with the five axis spoiler (bought mine in January). A friend who bought his last summer didn't have the spoiler. Spoiler doesn't make or break the car. Most people in my area don't have a spoiler either.

i was about to jump a red frs with the scion spoiler and trd exhaust, I loved the way it looked. But I liked the brz spoiler a bit more with that little hump thingy on each side.. I never seen a frs yet with a spoiler driving around. they are all naked!

Is this Scion OEM Spoiler bolt on?

Yes...Checked under the trunk and found the bolts there. Looks like it could still be covered if I choose to put a new wing there but I don't know about how leak-resistant it would be...

The spoiler is a somewhat recent option

May be the reason why we don't see many of these. The Five Axis is easier to install and can be taken off without damage if ever need be.

This spoiler is available @ your local dealership - just gotta get the hardware mounting option... If memory serves me right, it's under $400 for both the wing and the kit.

Cheers!

The spoiler became available around February. It bolts on, and requires a template for installation. The spoiler kit also comes with stronger trunk struts to compensate for the extra weight of the wing.

Mine has the spoiler, bespoke, trunk carpet... Didn't necessarily want any of that crap but it was the only silver one and I didn't feel like waiting for them to get me a silver one with no options.

I got mine in October. I didn't even see them on the cars online when I got mine.

Minovsky 05-30-2013 11:05 PM

dont really like those =/

I work at a Toyota Scion Dealership. I see the vehicles coming in over the past month and going forward are coming in mostly with that spoiler. I have to say I am not a fan of it.. but haven't had a chance to see how its mounted.. so I am unsure if it can be swapped easily for the Duckbill or other kind of spoilers people may want. We also got a couple in with the TRD Exhaust.. from the "factory" so to speak. they weren't ordered like that.
