Where is the best place to get a spoiler?

I just scored an 03 Silver TL-S with out the spoiler.

Just didnt think it was right to shell out 600 bux for the Acura dealer to put one on.

Where is the best place to get a stock spoiler?

Thanks

Get it here. I've ordered several items from Tim in the past, including a body kit, and it's always been a wonderful experience. Service and support is top notch and the prices are hard to beat.

DO NOT GET THE Factory LIKE spoiler MAKE SURE U GET THE FACTORY FROM HERE. I put a factory like spoiler on mine and 2 months later a couple of the led's burnt out. Looked like $hit, had to take it to the dealer and have a factory put on. Ended up dumping 800 bucks on a piece of plastic.

What is the difference between the FACTORY and the knock off? I heard that dealers buy the knockoffs and charge customers for the Factory spec one.

I heard that the knockoffs are exactly the same. Why spend 500+bux when you can spend 165?

and yes I found a place that will sell the knock off for 165 including shipping.

There are differences between OEM and aftermarket ... But who cares as long as it is durable and fit like OEM. I got my Lexus spoiler for 190 painted and shipped .... OEM would of cost me 600 bucks + taxes.

spoiler depot dot com has it for 165 ..... paint is an extra 74 bucks.
Here is how you save the big bucks:

What I did with my lexus one was i bidded on Ebay (make sure the seller is the spoiler depot one) for $102. Then call them and let them painted for 75 bucks. Came to my house in a week and fit perfectly. You can't tell if it is OEM or aftermarket. The paint matched perfectly as well. Save me about 400 bucks right there.

I have the same problem as mentioned above by someone. I purchased the painted stock like spoiler, which the spoiler is ok, and the paint matches pretty good, but not perfect. But the thing is 3 WEEKS OLD, and some of my led's are out. Talk about crappy looking.....2003-tls, with missing teeth. I called acp (this site) waiting to see if they will send new one, but what faith am I to have in a new one???

hmmmm, someone on the other forum said $200 (Captain Matt?? I think, but not sure).
You might want to call Tim P at Ray Laks, prices may vary.

Sorry if my info was wrong. I bought a different spoiler, so I don't know about the factory wing.

Actually Baggs, the '03 spoiler is selling for $466.70, which is still a great deal.

the $200 spoiler that you were talking about is probably for the '99 models... the price difference is quite significant!

Auction by spoiler depot started out at around $105 + shipping (can't be much) and tax (for you) and usually not alot of bid. How did you come up with 215?
