Do you know of any aftermarket spoilers that use the OEM spoiler holes? So I basically just bolt on, no body work necessary.
It takes two seconds to drill the two holes. You'll spend more time laying out the templates to drill. The wing includes vinyl seals for the old holea and a gasket, so leaks wont be a problem. Not a ton of prep work on the wing either; body shop lowered their estimate once they saw it in the flesh.

I don't like the idea of drilling holes on my trunk either.

After comparing...Stivo has the spoiler comes in color matched for $350. and Zeta only comes in Carbon Fiber for $395.

I am still debating... what is your thoughts?

i'm not too fond of carbon fiber wings unless it's one piece with the trunk. that's just mw .02 though. i'm slightly worried about the tape holding on a spoiler...i'm not gonig like 130 or anything, but it just worries me.

I went 130 with the TRD wing with no bolts and with the peeling adhesives on a few occasions, still on there and hasn't shifted one bit!

Yup comes with a grey gasket. I personally like the black gasket more so if anyone decides to not use the black one, I'll take it off your hands. Maybe even trade you for my grey one if you want.

I'm looking into buying one from japanparts, but im scared of the painting/installing costs. I know it varies depending on the shop, but i would be interested to know how much it cost to some of the members that have gone the TRD way.

Tx in advance!

It was about €120 (inc. taxes) for painting and fitting. I guess it's not particularly cheap, but the work was top notch.
