Does anyone know where I might find a rear spoiler like the new Rav4s come with? I know they are out there for Rav 4.1s, a few of you here have them. I have not seen them for sale though, are they Toyota parts or aftermarket?
If you're talking about the wide duckbill types.. They're aftermarket. The brand is BOMEX. you can check their website to order one. Fit's perfectly, with clips and all.tankd0g said:Does anyone know where I might find a rear spoiler like the new Rav4s come with? I know they are out there for RAV 4.1s, a few of you here have them.

Wow, didn't know that was factory, or is it for the newer models and you retrofitted it to the 4.1 ?? also did you need to paint it or did it come factory color ? Also how much did you pay for it? and how hard was the install?Derek said:Is this the style spoiler you are speaking of?
If it is, it is an OEM (factory) spoiler; whose part # is: 08150-42010. You might want to try locating one from your local Toyota parts department. If nobody has them here, you can try the RAV4OZ.com store; I believe they have them there.
Yup DJ, that is a factory 4.1 rear spoiler. I got it off of eBay for around $100.00 USD, and luckily it was the same color as my RAV. I am not sure whether it comes factory painted or not, so the part # mentioned above may just be for an unpainted spoiler. As for installation, it was a breeze. All it has is some tabs that hook on the top of the rear door frame and the rest is secured by double sided tape.DJ Sueno said:Wow, didn't know that was factory, or is it for the newer models and you retrofitted it to the 4.1 ?? also did you need to paint it or did it come factory color ?

I'm not really looking to spend $400 on one I'll check the US sites, looks like I'm going to have to go aftermarket tho.Derek said:tankdog, eBay would be a difficult place to look for it. I've been browsing on eBay for many years now especially looking for RAV accessories; and this particular spoiler was the only one to go on auction. Not to say that another one will not turn up, but they are quite rare.
Have you tried contacting any U.S. dealers? That might be a better option for you.
RAV4OZ.com shop has it too:
