Looking for a spoiler!
Ok I am a new scion TC owner, just purchased my ride about 2 months ago and I absolutley love it. I'm currently looking for a spoiler and I really like the stand spoiler from the manufacturer. This part is listed at $430 from the dealer, now i have seen some aftermarket replica spoilers that look identical for much less. I'm wondering if anyone has purchased one of these or has any feedback for me before I make this move (or mistake).

Get one of these
Lol i'm jk. I couldn't resist. You sure you want the pedestal spoiler? once you drill the hatch you're basically stuck with it. I'd look into a lip spoiler that you could just tape down with some double sided tape. but if you want the pedistal

That ones primered. U can pick ur color on the side. 100% legit part you would get from the dealership. But cheaper <3 Sparks
or you could see if anyone wants to swap hatches with you. Sometimes you'll get a Pedestal spoiler owner who wants to get rid of theirs, so they'll basically do a straight up swap, sometimes swap+ some cash but rarely. That way they get their undrilled hatch, and you get a pedestal spoiler either free or dirt cheap. And everybodies happy.

Personally, I'm a fan of the OEM lip. Maybe CF if you want. you can get the OEM lip from sparks too. Or if you want the CF version of it.

Then theres also the Kaminari Wing if u wanna go big. uhhh Viniati Lip is pretty nice, might need to drill that one tho.
To me the Pedestal spoiler seems like something I'd enjoy for a month then wanna get rid of. That's just me personally tho.
