Burtman 96-02 4Runner spoiler COMPLETE! Finally!

I had asked him the same thing when this was being mocked up and he said it was not in the works at this time. It's a fiberglass mold with a metal rib as the inner most layer so I think you'd be hard pressed to make a pocket without compromising the wing's backbone.

I really wanted some additional backup lighting and thought having it integrated would be nice.

Correct, there is an inner metal rib. Now, there are also metal ribs inside the the middle pods (the area that covers the factory spoiler holes, see first pic below. You could mount lights into those middle pods if desired. Hmm, that might be cool.

Bumping this one up. WIll ship in 2-3 days after order now. I just had a giy with an anthracite 4Runner do this spoiler in BLACK, since he has a 98 SR5 with a black bumper, black flares, etc.

Damnit, Jason...

I havent even seen the 3rd gen my wife just bought for me while I've out of town, and I've already got $3600 worth of parts for it sitting in the garage...

This is definitely on the list, though! Will probably hold off until I get a good idea of paint and color scheme.

But, Jason is a great guy! He set me up with a mixed-and-matched spacer kit for my wife's TRD Pro (also going to be installing that when I get home).

Jason, these arent a particularly limited production, are they?

Mine arrived a few weeks ago and the color match was perfect, have an issue with it not covering up the top holes all the way though and [MENTION=9]Jason B[/MENTION] suggested the OEM holes might have been drilled a bit too high from the factory, at 1st I thought this couldn't be but it sure looks like he's right, as looking at the vehicle directly from behind I can't see portion of the bottom of the 3rd brake light, so the spoiler and the holes are sitting about a 1/4 inch too high! I just ordered some K73 Metallic Silver touch up paint to cover up the top holes once I cover all the holes shut. I haven't drilled into the hatch yet, it's nerve racking as there is no turning back once done!
 
Have no fear.... it'll all work out. I got it shipped to me paintmatched and I got her on there. Just double triple check your perfectly lined up and it'll work out.

(old pics from a couple years ago when I did it)

I see that there's a gap there so I presume it won't keep rain out of the back if you crack the window a few inches. You'd have to put something overtop the spoiler like a plastic sheet? (when sleeping in it in the rain, not driving)
 
Do you have any issues paint matching white due to the single stage Toyota mixture that is 20 years old? My truck has clear on it still, do you do a base/clear paint or single stage for white?

Paint code 056 natural white.

Paint code 056 natural white.

It just goes by the paint code, meaning it will be the same color as a new bottle of 056 touch up paint from the dealer. Now, of course there is some fade over the years, and if painted locally, the scan the existing color of you paint now and match to that, but I've never had any complaints.
