I didn't close the trunk fully because I was more scared of the drill slipping and scratching the quarter panels. Slipping on the trunk, the spoiler would just cover my mess up. Plus all the Metal shavings I did not want to fall onto other painted panels. That is why I draped a moving blanket over all those panels That was my thought process at the time. People attempting this should definitely close their trunk before drilling if that makes them feel more comfortable, but for me it wasn't.
I just got the oem spoiler for my wife’s 200t. The template is on its way as well. I’m. Gonna be nervous drilling into her car haha. I wouldn’t be so worried if it wasn’t a 2017 with only 17k on it 😳 (still basically brand new!)
Thanks for the video! I can't believe that template cost close to $100 CDN, it should be included with the spoiler. If you ever have to do this again, close the trunk! Less chances of the drill slipping. Also, they sell drill bit stoppers, regardless, great job! Those saying to put 3M tape, it's a $300 factory spoiler, clearly he doesn't want anyone ripping it off.
Well done video but drilling and sealing holes will never stop rust from occurring up in the rust belt states is not recommended. Using double sided 3M adhesives is best and does a guarantee fast and clean installation.
Ur fucking crazy bro. I would've got the 3M tape kind of spoiler and called it a day lmao. I used one of them on my sc400, and never had an issue. Been thinking about getting it for my IS300. Still good work!

@@ItzBlunt ua-cam.com/video/SIVL0y6u3yk/v-deo.html I made a video about it. It worked and I tested it at a peak 80 mph on the highway. Once that first test was out of the way I felt at ease knowing this product works. However recently after working at a construction job. The constant dust and stuff in the air I feel has messed up the bonding somehow. Because after I came back from a shift, the 3m tape was splattered around my trunk yet the spoiler is still holding.

Great job man! The two middle holes on the edge are scary. Jeez! Question for you though. Can those two bolts/clips on the inner part of the spoiler be removed? I ask this because I am wondering if I can just drill the two outer parts and then line the entire midle edges with 3M tape. I have a feeling that would be more than enough to keep it on, down and flush. I am very hesitant to drill those middle holes. Side ones are a piece of cake.
Yes all of the clips and studs are removable. I actually removed it the first go at installing this spoiler. Didn't like how it was lifting up so I sold that one and purchased a new one again because I misplaced the removed studs and clips. BTW, I have an install template for sale if you are in need of one.
@@specONE Ah ok. Got it thanks. I'm considering installing this same spoiler on my IS and just been trying to watch as many installation videos as I can before I take the plunge. It's been a few years now since your install. How has the spoiler held up, I know one concern about drilling holes into a trunk, is the fear of getting water in there when it rains, causing mold. Have you had to deal with that and is the spoiler still going strong? Thanks.
Hello Bro ! It’s ken again, I haven’t seen any new videos from you .. it has been awhile. Can I ask you something about upgrading for the Lexus IS 250 2015 The first question Is that hard to install side mirror folding system ... I’ve been looking a video about installing folding side mirrors system .. but I didn’t see anything .. the second question .. I’ve seen some videos on UA-cam about using a key fob to start the engine ... so I tried to use the key fob to start the engine .. but it didn’t work . 😬 maybe it just works on other Lexus models except IS .. don’t you think ? Thank you. Hope to hear from you soon. Merry Christmas
Hey Ken. I dont have any experiencing with installing side mirror folding system on our 3rd gen Lexus IS so cannot really comment. The remote start feature from keyfob is an accessory addon. I've also seen some cars equipped to start from a phone app if they have the subscription service. drivers.lexus.com/lexusdrivers/technology/enform/remote
Not recommended in locations where it try super hot and sunny. I had mines taped initially and the tape started lifting because the plastic was changing shape during temperature fluctuation
I had 3m tape previously. It started lifting in the heat, the spoiler itself will change shape and tape couldn't hold it down. Once the spoiler cools down it goes back to it's old shape but the tape already given up. And the cycle continues the next time there is a heatwave. This is why I decided to bolt it down like factory
Great vid. Thanks. I'll be doing my install when I pick up my template on Tuesday. Question, what are the two plastic pieces that came in the bag with the nuts supposed to be used for?
just ordered this spoiler for my 2014 lexus is350 in the nebula finish as well:) I have a question could I install this spoiler without drilling the holes? thanks
oh i see what you mean. well i needed some way to cover the bumper from the metal shavings from dropping on there. it was easier just to drape the moving blanket the way i had it and just work. and with it not being able to latch down i can just swing the trunk open easily to look at the bottom side if needed. Yeah might be easier to drill the holes with it fully latched and close but it didn't effect me so i just drilled like i normally do.
Hi Rodney, I also plan to install this spoiler on my 2019 is350 fsport; Instead of drilling, would this be possible with 3M double-sided automotive tape/ VHB? Thanks
I initially installed it with VHB Tape only, on a hot summer day the ends lift up due to change in shape of the plastic spoiler with temperature fluctuation. I thought I installed it wrong, took it off and applied new tape and reinstalled it only for it to lift again. Was not happy so I bolted it down finally so it will never lift at the ends
Hi there, what kind of springs or coilovers was your 1988 Acura Integra sitting on. I tried looking everywhere for some for mine but could not find anything. Thanks! Also your integra is awesome.
You can install this same one in video with just tape but it may lift in the corners on very hot day. The spoiler flexes into different shape under heat and the tap can't hold it. Once it cools down it goes back to shape. Was bit annoying to me so I decided to bolt it down
That's why use the tool I used in the video. Punch a dimple without slipping at all Neiko 02638A 5" Automatic Center Hole Punch | Adjustable Impact amzn.to/2F10jnk
OMFG ..... all you people thinking it looks good and drilling holes into a new trunk are hella COOL! 3M MAKES A VERY STRONG ADHESIVE BOND FOR CARS THAT HOLD SPOILERS AND SUCH THINGS OF THAT NATURE....AND IT COMES OFF easy asF. But holds on tighter then a fat chick with food gift cards. 🤺
sure, but i had problems with just the tape holding it in place, in extreme heat on very hot days with blazing sun, the spoiler would lift off in the corners and the take was not strong enough to hold it in place while the spoiler took on new form after heating up.
The tape that used and failed was the tape originally on when brand new from Lexus in package. You may be right that the double sided tape was from China as with most stuff is manufacturered there nowadays.
Bottom line is he did it the most secure way and it won't lift on him. Tape will hold, but his personal experience was that it didn't. You can tell he is a perfectionist by watching his videos. His car looks great and he does thorough videos explaining everything.
There are alot of exhaust options. On my car personally I have a F-sport axle back exhaust. I also have a Tsudo midpipe I need to get on the car one day.
+Oscar Nieto the correct way Lexus does it yes. It can be tape only but there is chance to run into issues like I did with it lifting up in very hot days with very strong sun hitting it
Rodney Au I work at a automotive manufacturing facility I can say I’ve not seen every department but we take every precaution to not add any holes after the ED bath. I’ve made stamping dies for deck lids and we’ve never had a pierce hole option for spoilers. I work for Toyota/Lexus
+abidingcitizen , Lexus Supplied instructions for Lexus Technicians at dealership instruct to drill holes to mount the spoiler. This is a OEM spoiler purchase from Lexus. www.lexuspartsnow.com/resources/installation/LPN/18_MY14%20IS%20Rear%20Spoiler-DIO%20IssC.pdf
Rodney Au currently waiting to get an official answer from someone within the company. The person I spoke with thinks they know the process but wasn’t 100% sure. They said the vehicle is built and taken to the marshaling yard where a separate company applies the “upgraded” parts. Be it blacked out or gold emblem packages to spoilers. Toyota nor Lexus manufacturers penetrate the body of the vehicle outside the normal stamping process. So basically dealers or who ever can take on that task after the cars manufactured. When I bought my wife her IS the spoiler was a option, had we taken it the dealer would’ve installed. If we built the Lexus and had a spoiler added the task would’ve probably taken place after the vehicle got into the marshaling yard. As I said I’ve been around the facility but I’m sure I’ve not seen it all but I have seen the adesigning and machining of stamping dies, body weld and paint departments and final assembly. I’ve only passed the marshaling yard I’ve never been in it.

+J Rohr818 it will since it's very light and that is how I had it before. But over time if you park the car in the sun on a very hot day like a heatwave the plastic spoiler changes shape due to the extreme heat and it starts to move a little bit and lifts up, the tape alone couldn't keep it held down. A drawback to the light and thin material that it changes shape in the heat. That is why I bought another one and decided to drill holes and bolt it on just like how OEM did.
3m tape wasn't strong enough to keep the spoiler in place during very hot days, it would keep lifting at the corners. I was sick of it so I drill it doesn't. I had it taped before and retaped it multiple times before I gave up on it
The drilling part was so scary to watch. Hurt to watch. But the finished product is amazing.
Was scary for me to do also!
now you can also use 3M glue sticker instead of bolts
I would have closed the trunk lid before drilling, the movement of the lid could have caused slipping, you were lucky
I didn't close the trunk fully because I was more scared of the drill slipping and scratching the quarter panels. Slipping on the trunk, the spoiler would just cover my mess up. Plus all the Metal shavings I did not want to fall onto other painted panels. That is why I draped a moving blanket over all those panels That was my thought process at the time.

Great job with the install and video! Fast question though, does the spoiler help with performance or is it just for show?
Honestly not sure. It's a OEM peice so I would hope they did some R&d on it and it helps but I did it more for cosmetic.
Just for appearance.
