I will return one day.
I need one too. Preferably one from Europe rather than Japan. Its the only way you can order the hood spoiler.

I believe once someone in the states orders a part it becomes unlocked in the system. This will allow others to order a part with out a VIN.
Well, that what I was talking about with the parts guy anyway.
Can you guys over there help us out ?
Thanks
I will return one day.

I contacted ToyotaWorld and they said they could not get it anymore (I think it was $20-25). I did contact Toysport and they could get it for about $70 shipped. I have been on the UK boards looking for one for months now with no luck >

Dustin:
I spoke with Jeff from Toyota World last week. He indicated that he could get it if I had a VIN# of the car that came with the part stock. Thats only the European ST205's. He confirmed that it has NOT been discontinued. And, I wouldn't order any part from Toysport.

Thats interesting that it came with other 6gc's too. I read that it was designed to reduce hood vibration over 150km/h. I guess I just assumed that would be ST205's only....laughs.

i dont have the spoiler and i cant say that i have any hood vibration or anything odd happening at any speeds.
15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
I have it... don't notice a difference, and I'm above 90 even after only one hood pin and the stock latch...
If anyone needs interior stuff, etc, I'm parting whats left of my celi out. Just ask.
I have the hood spoiler and its definetly hot when it comes to looks! I get compliments on it ALL THE TIME! i get more compliments on that then any other part of the GT4 parts I have.
I got mine when I ordered from toysport. I think toysport isnt too bad. ive had good and bad. Last part I got was low beam projectors and they came in 4 days!

It does not come painted. It looks like you also need the taller washer nozzels as well. I think its about $30-40 if you can get it from Toyota. The trick is finding a European ST205 vin number.

j, no need for the taller washer nozzles. i have the stock '204 ones in my hood, they work as normal. >

i dont understand why u guys are having such a hard time finding these, i got mine a couple years ago with all the other '4 stuff.

My nozzles appear to stock as well.
I sent a few messages out, I'll see if I can find one in stock.

Good to know guys. Thanks for the replies.

I dont know what you have locally, but you may be able to go and have them make you a similar spoiler.
If you want, I can get you measurements for mine.

The four is JDM, and doesn't have one.
I think I have a red one kicking about though. I might get around to fitting it one day.
JDM ST205Blitz Spec NUR Exhaust, somewhere over $1000Needing another one 18000 miles later, bloody annoying.
Toyota Des Moines comes through again. I got the hood spoiler for $56 shipped.

nice, i thought it would have cost more then that. i think somone told me 150$ at one point.
you guys know that washer nozzels are adjustable, right? if its not spraying in the right place, you stick a pin in the little hole and adjust it .
