Default Trustworthy place to buy an aftermarket spoiler?

Hi.

I want to get a pre-painted factory style pedistal spoiler (this one: http://www.razzi.com/vehicles/toyota...2dr_2636_1.jpg ) for my tC.

I want to know if anyone has recommendations of trustworthy places to buy one online (and trustworthy places for aftermarket parts in general) for less than (what I feel is) the extremely high dealer price, or if you think it would be better to buy directly from Scion, despite the cost.

This site looks respectable to me, but I couldn't find any information or reviews of it online and i'm pretty cautious when buying stuff from places i've never heard of.

http://aftermarket-unlimited.com/sho...5/prevstart/0/

There is also this site, but again, no info:

http://www.razzi.com/vehicles/toyota...2dr_2636.shtml

Recommendations? You guys have been really helpful so far with my various questions; I appreciate it.

wow those two sites you linked to are selling that thing super-cheap. I wouldn't really trust them myself because I've never heard of them and it could be total crap for all I know.

I've bought from and trust trdsparks.com and mcgeorgeparts.com. Those are two dealerships that sell their products for great prices.

My mistake, I missed it at first. It's $239 plus $14 shipping. Does that sound like a reasonable price?

I'm willing to pay more to get it from a reputible place.

Also, about how much will it cost to get the dealer to install it?

Unless i'm missing something again (not out of the question), they just have the lip spoiler, not the pedestal spoiler.

If I can get one for $300 or less installed, i'm not going to complain. Any estimates on dealer instalation cost?

Just did. It was refreshingly easy to contact them. Too many companies bury their contact info on some obscure page, if they have it at all.
