^Settle for what one can get? lol. If one is determined to get a Zelas spoiler(or other Zelas parts) it can be attained. I have a tC1, obtaining Zelas parts is not/will not be at/near the top of my priority list. I don't know all the spoiler options for the tC2, there may be other flush mount spoilers. I think the Scion optional one even may not look right on every color tC though.

When I bought my car, I took a look at the rear “lip” spoiler and was disappointed with the fit and finish of the thing…and that is why I did not buy it when I bought the car. When I saw the Zelas shelf spoiler, it looks like it is part of the car…it flow with the lines of the car. When I put it on, the boss (wife) didn’t even notice it! It really does complete the car’s looks. Not a standard, off-the-shelf POS...it is a well made Toyota product.
In person, it does flow very nicely…there was just no way to photograph the car to show the gap in the shelf spoiler. I took the shots is worst angle possible. I’ve seen both in person and I would never buy the lip spoiler…I’ve got the choice; you don’t so you settle for what you can get.

i drive a Zelas quad-supercharged Toyota Echo. it has two Zelas spoilers stacked on top of the child seat mounted to the rear deck lid. the zelas aero kit also flows nicely with the giant stuffed panda hood ornament. any car with Zelas gear instantly reverses typical car depreciation and starts gaining value at 11% annually.
ZELAS FTW!!!!!!!

...exactly why I have no interest in searching for those parts(particularly the ground effects and spoiler). If I had a tC2 I probably would do the badging to Toyota, but that would be about it. He mentioned the difficulty to obtain it which is why I replied. If you misunderstood it with me adding in the tC1 part(I have a tC1), well IDK what to tell you lol.

right you are KJ. zelas is just a tC without the sunroof or manual transmission. also add smaller wheels and an awkward looking body kit. i'll add extra tC badges before i'd switch them to the badges of a more stripped down version of a car i already paid for.
but in regards to the spoiler issue: stock lip spoiler > zelas.
and for what it's worth, i think the RS 8.0 looks great.

its all the same car....
its stupid to start hating on each other (tC2, tC2.1, Zelas, RS7, RS8 )...we are all the same, its like hating your sibling or your cousin. theres enough tC1 haters on us. whats the point?

But is it a better car when you have both a tC and Zelas badge on it at the same time?

[QUOTE=KidJustin;4050614]i see your point. and no, it is not, definitely not.
...however it not necessarily a worse car either[/
That is until someone adds a Zelas spoiler as well.....
