i ended up paying $163 total, shipped from China. critical88 is a good seller, would definitely buy from him again. is a clean looking spoiler. it's a hard plastic material, not sure what it is but better than fiberglass. will take pics tomorrow, i forgot it at work.:redface:

[yrsdrgn]

Cool. I bought the same thing from critical88 haven't heard from him in a while though. Have fun installing!! :thumbup:

2 noobish questions:
Are spoilers easy to install yourself?
And how to you get a good paint finish (and a colour match); compressor and spraygun I assume, but do you need a coat of lacquer or something?

[Blenjar]

I'm wondering myself.

Definitely post some final pics up!:thumbup:

[PetersRedYaris]

I've see those and they look pretty cool. I don't know if I would rather have that or the factory spoiler for a more understated look. Post pics when you get it on.

[joey1320]

some pics of the spoiler before it gets painted(hopefully next week). don't mind the couch it costed me $40 at a yardsale. the cover is in the wash getting cleaned...

[Katana]

next week, it was snowing like crazy up here so i wasn't able to pre-drill/set the spoiler before going out to paint. i want to get it and install it right away without having to mess with it once the paint is on.

i'm gonna stay late tomorrow at work and drill all the holes needed for it and take it in on thursday(if everything goes ok).

will def. take pics when is finished!

[yrsdrgn]

ttt can't wait to see them pics!!! ^^

[Shroomster]

WOOT!!!! Hey Joey any updates?

I got some!

took my wing to the dealer and they're going to paint and install for $250 (not bad)
It should be on by THIS Friday! (4/27)

[Blenjar]

I think you could had gotten the Rally Spoiler for the pricce of the wing and 250...
I think..

$250 is a major rip!
$150 would be high

Paint is roughly $100/panel and $30-50 and hour for install and from what I hear this is a 20min install and a spoiler is not even considered a full panel... so this job should be no more than $100 at any respectable body shop

Given This same spoiler (that come prepainted) is installed-PARTS AND LABOR from Toyota $280.00

[uncleyaris]

show me the money, as in money shot!! lets see the pics.

[Shroomster]

meh it's the prices they have, plus I'm going through the dealer so i know I'm getting color matched, I'm not going through a local who I'd have to buy paint for and then put it on myself. they are covering installation issues in my warranty, and I won't have the problem of hoping the paint comes out the right color...

we're using money we saved for just this...I wouldn't mind putting it on myself, if it was something other than drilling holes and possibly screwing up that panel....

I have no probelms with direct replacement but I don't trust myself with cutting/drilling modifications....

[joey1320]

sorry for the lack of updates but i just dropped the spoiler today at the dealers' body shop(DCR). i'm going to chicago for training tomorrow and i'll be back on friday, so next saturday i'll have it finished. will take pics when is done!

oh it was $100 for the paint and i'm doing the install myself.

[wagoneer]

I've been watching Ebay for RS spoilers...none on in a while.

Any other sources for United States purchaser to get a RS spoiler without spending lotsa cash?

[yrsdrgn]

might want to look for a user named Critical88 on Ebay. he sells replicas of the RS spoiler. Makes ABS versions of the FPR one

I just checked, nothing for the Yaris for sale now. I really like this RS spoiler, hopefully someone else starts selling one soon!

you do realize the dealer and bodyshops buy there paint from the same same place
dealers DO NOT get there pait from Toyota, they get them mixed at the local pait supply store, just like every other body shop on earth

it is your $, waist it how you want

meh I'll WASTE it the way I want to hehe...

nah i understand what you're saying but if you knew this area the only place you'd be willing to take it to around here would be the dealer....

plus like I said I don't trust myself (with our own cars that aren't paid off) to go drilling and mounting on a panel that will be in view at all times...

letting them mount it (jsut like at any other shop) they become responsible
