I'm really disappointed in the paint on my TRD spoiler that I got from the dealer. You can see clouds in the metallic flake. Poor job.

I'm sure it's much too late for that. I picked up my car and signed off on it.

Depends on the dealer, and if you go about the situation in a nice tone. I've done this before, and didn't see any clouds/defects until later when I got home. They just had me bring it by to show them what I meant, and they agreed on the poor quality and we set up a new appointment for the fix.

Anyone interested in the 5 Axis spoiler group buy for the 10 series refer to this page. I realize the 10 series Facebook page is a closed group and not everyone is able to view it so here is another link with the information.

I went back to the dealership - they thought I was crazy. I mean, it's hard to see the bad paint job in bright sunlight, but I do admit, I'm anal about it.

Still, they said they doubt they could paint it again and make it better.

I think they're being lazy and cheap. However, I'm not sure it bothers me enough for me to want to keep going back to the dealership to keep having them paint it, and try again, and again.

I do have 3 years on the warranty, so if it does bother me more in the future, they said I can bring it back later.

I've seen a few in the wild, but I live too close to Toyota for me to not see them...

I've yet to see a 10 series in the wild... @Pablitomarrero is always hiding under a rock, so I've yet to even see his!

Last I checked they had 7 or 8 of them at the dealership by my house. No one really wants them.

There's so many in Houston I got mine for 3,800 off MSRP after putting a few k down I only owe 18 on my car and I've had it for two months.

I wanna say they had three 10's on the floor when I looked and when I asked he said he at 5 more or so in the back. If they would have given me a better deal "which Im sure now that it's December they are" I woulda grabbed one.
