Default Factory Pedestal spoiler is ugly on the tC

I saw a brand new flint mica tC today with the pedestal spoiler and personally i think it does not look good on the tC. this of course is only my personal opinion. i think the pedestal spoiler is too large, and chunky attached to the nice sleek lines of the tC.

what looks so sweet is the tC with the low profile lip spoiler along with the s2000 antenna. the stock tC antenna is hideous and along with the pedestal spoiler attached to the car makes the car look so stupid.

anyone agree with me?






i am sure many of you guys and
gals out there like it though.

Yeah the pedistal is not my style but then again I am not an attention seeker. My favorite so far is the TRF rear lip spoiler. Looks like a good price too! I wonder if it comes prepainted. I like how it makes the car look longer and sleeker. I would need to see it in person before buying though. I am going to a Scion show this weekend so hopefully I will get the chance.

I wouldn't get the pedistal spoiler. It turns your car into a shopping cart. I would like the rear lip though, I think it is a very subtle change and it makes the car look more aggressive.

So, do you have one or not? A wee bit confusing statement there, but if you do need a Lip Spoiler in AR, try ken @ http://trdsparks.com . I'm not too sure about prices, but he will try and hook you up real nice! That's where I get all my accessories from. BTW-old post or not, I still dislike the Ped Spoiler. Have a nice day!

Default You guys are completely wrong!

Hey, you guys have such ugly taste. The lip spoiler makes the car look like an escort or a sentra. The Pedestal spoiler looks sportier and it gives the car a better look. AS far as factory spoilers go, the Pedestal is the way to go. But, I guess it all depends on your taste in cars.

I agree with you Jrosalino, I really don't like the lip spoiler. Actually from far away it doesn't even look like it has a spoiler. I would prefer the Pedestal, I think it gives the car a sportier look too. Bleh, anyways that's just how I feel. My brother has a tC too and he doesn't like spoilers....I guess everyone's different.
