Roof spoiler?
I was just searching around on ebay and found a roof spoiler for the 4g tl. Search "09 tl roof spoiler" and a company in Taiwan is selling.

Anyone buy one yet? Wondering how it looks on the TL...

Yeah, Dshahs420 has one. I messaged him about it after i saw it as his avator logo. He said it fit perfectly and the paint matched his mayan bronze well.

Didn't Dshahs420 say that he sold his 4G? I'd read one of his posts a while back trashing the 4G and saying his sold his "beater."

the main point is that it really has this roof spoiler, go ebay and search it yourself.........

Ya good call, I found that post he did sell his "beater" after 600 miles and upgrading his wheels to 20's.

This company that manufactures these spoilers looks to be legit. Looks like a nice mod. I may order one for my 09 TL.

Is this what you guys are talking about? The SSM pics he's got posted is definitely not on a 4G so be weary of that... Price isn't bad considering its painted, but quality is definitely questionable. I'd love to see how this really fits on a 4G too. Hope its flush on the ends.

He might say its for a 4G, but my point is the pictures he posted on his ebay listing is NOT on a 4G TL. I'd want to see pics of it on an actual 4G before i make the purchase.

i received mine today but cant install it due to the weather. i did place it on there for a fitment test and it fits perfectly. the only thing about is that you have to bend it up a bit because the back window curves. the spoiler is very flexible. the paint match is perfect and ill have pictures later on this week.

overall, the product fits! ;]

Personally, I don't like it. It looks like a gigantic "weatherseal." In my opinion, a roof spoiler might look good on a "Ricer" like a WRX or EVO but looks out of place on a luxury sedan like the TL.
