Looks like a spoiler off the GTO.

I would've guessed it to be a spoiler off a Toyota Celica GT-S, but it looks lower and appears to be thicker.

I want those tail lights on the RX-8 or I want mine to look like that. Whose car is that? I remember seeing it in another thread. Anyone know what they did?

Those are stock '06 OEM tails on the GTO. They changed them from just all red in '04/'05 to this newer version.

The 8's tails in the first post have been smoked.

You can go to LS1gto.com and check out the "parts for sale" section. There are several members selling their spoilers.

I think that spoiler looks better on the 8 than the GTO.

I would have to agree. Now that I've seen every angle, it looks like it was designed for the 8.

That doesn't look much different imo.

Here's another member who installed the GTO spoiler. https://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php...&postcount=135

I don't think proportionally it's too big for the car.
