Default TRF rear lip spoiler for tC

Hey all,

although this is only a prototype... just wanted to get some opinion on it. TRF will be modifying it abit more to enhance the look... but just wanted to get some feed backs and see if any of you tC owners might be willing to buy these if they were mass produced.

I'm not sure of the cost...but TRF have informed me that it will be in the area of $275 to $300.

The lip will be easy install with no drilling required and it has a cutout around the 3rd brake light...and actually looks factory.

I actually really like that wing.. it's the best lookin' one I've seen yet, aside from the factory lip. I'd buy it. It's real clean, not huge, and gives a nice sporty look to the back of the car. I'm *sold* when/where can I buy it?

It's still a prototype and will be available shortly after final modification and design. TRF will soon offer it early next year... prob late January or early February.

no... the price will definitely be in that range. I will make sure Tim keeps it that way...or atleast for Scion Life members.

i'll take some profile shot of my car soon..so u can see how well it sits with the tC. The wing definitely makes the tC look sportier and longer... it's really classy IMO.

I second that motion, it is the best looking one out yet, that's the wing I'm getting.

Ok I don't know what you guys are thinking. It looks like a Camry spoiler that was mounted wrong.

UM...tell me how a camry spoiler look like? cuz i haven't seen any camry spoiler that look like this.

I know there will be haters ... but i guess that's wat makes america the way it is.

it's okay... i respect ur opinion...but i personally think majority of the people will end up liking this spoiler. It looks even better in person...

I think it looks great also. That style and lip style spoilers seem to be the only good looking spoilers on the tC.

i personally agree. I've seen many with "pedestal type" spoiler on the tC ... and it does not conform with the bodyline of the tC. Hence, IMO ... lip style spoiler looks best on the tC. The main reason a lip style spoiler conforms better is the fact that tC is really a hatchback with elongated rear hatch window and shortened trunk. Therefore, the lip spoiler will complement the rear of the tC better than a "lifted" pedestal type spoiler which tends to cut the bodyline and seem out of place.

here is the pedestal spoiler
