That's quite a setup. My dad was a "body and fender man" in the 40s and 50s. I still remember the smell of the paint when mom would send me inside to let him know we were there. (One car per family back then!) My 2014 is Hot Lava, a little deeper, maybe more red than yours. Your wheels gave me a chuckle when I saw them...little touch of whimsy.
I have a painted-to-match spoiler ordered from eBay that has been riding around with me for over a year. Dealer wants about $800 to install. I've asked my son and he's reluctant because he says, "once you've drilled a hole, it's there." and he doesn't want to create any leaks. Do you have any advice on spoiler installation? Thx. .....Looks GRRREAT!

If u dont drill the holes thats supposed to hold it good enough be sure to use a very strong bodysealant on it...but when the cold ice snow comes it can snap and fly of:/

@milligi Did you ever find the template for installation? Let me see if I have the official installation instructions. I may or may not have gotten it because my iQ came with the spoiler installed. Is that a Toyota part with Toyota part # or a Chinese clone? (Probably should have asked that first.)

As @Painterman notes there are some very strong adhesives out there like BMW's Betalink:


It is prescribed for use to attach BMW carbon fiber spoilers.

3M has similar super strong double sided tape (let me see if I can find an example):


I tried to pick one that is wide enough for one piece but it said industrial use only [emoji20]
