Sup people. I was quoted $720 for a standard roof spoiler (painted and installed) so naturally I will be buying this.

...and installing it my self.

I'm not too sure about painting my self. Paint code on vin plate is '8P4' cascade blue.

Would it be hard to paint? Price to be done by a professional?

FYI: I will be buying c-one wing tips straight away so are there any spoilers for sale already with tips or something close? Are there any wings around that would fit a rolla?

I recently installed my own spoiler. It was not overly difficult, as long as you take your sweet time to get it perfect.

However I would suggest getting it painted by a professional. Paints are very hard to get right especially metallics (I believe Cascade Blue is a metallic). Get it painted and try installing it yourself.

And I think that $720 to paint and install a spoiler is way too much..

Some quotes I've gotten regarding painting and fitting bits and pieces include:

- Sportivo front skirt = $180 painted and installed

- Rear spoiler + eyelids = $150 painted and installed (saved $150 here by doing it myself! :D)

I would not think that a spoiler would differ THAT much in price, unless I'm missing something here. Though I do realise that you'd need to wire up your centre mount brake light to your new spoiler's led brake light, but that should not jack the prices up that much.. =\

yeah that spoiler will fit. is it fibreglass or plastic?

I asked the ebay seller of those wing tips and he said from his experience the aftermarket spoilers in aus can fit the prefacelift wing tips. BUT ask him to double check :)

Hi would anyone know if this C-one Wing Tip will fit the New Corolla aswell.. the spoiler shape on the Levin ZR is similar to the old one. Could anyone confirm this?

Nope, it probably won't.

You'd need this part number for the 09 Corolla wing tips... CA7601-ZE150.

      Hi everyone, new member to the group and owner driver of a nifty little Toyota Sprinter Trueno XZ, now this was my cousins car, I bought it off him and after various drives, I have come to the decision that this needs alot of love. Now I am wondering if its worth putting my time and money into doing this certain make n model up or should I just buy a different car to do up? I am not very car-inclined so I really don't know a lot. Any opinions would be very helpful Thankful!

      Android auto

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      Android auto

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.
