I'm looking to buy a spoiler for my 05 silver limited. I've seen them from $119 on ebay to $300+ and they all look to be the same.

Do you have to drill any new holes for installation? How hard is the install?

Also what is the quality like?

Can anyone suggest a place to buy a painted spoiler which comes with a template and good instructions?

Sadly from what I am aware of you do have to drill so it can stay secure. 2007 Toyota 4Runner Spoiler, Spoilers this is a good retailer.
 
Appreciate the link however the site has 2 OEM spoilers with differing prices but they look the same. Has any one ordered from here? Thanks in advance.
 
Bought mine on Ebay for about $120. Shipped and painted. The spoiler came with the 3rd brake led light and the paint was a perfect match. Installation was a bit scary because of the drilling but it wasnt that hard. 3 of the 4 holes matched up to the factory bolt points inside the back door. The 4th bolt did not have a hole so I had to drill through 3 layers of metal to finally get all the way through the back door. Looks great. Very happy with the upgrade.
 
$ wise, i agree 399 is alot, but it depends on wether or not u want the humpback spoiler, the pre 05 oem, or an aftermarket.
 
some 05 have it, so i assume it started mid year. heres what the hump vs no hump look like. the hump is suppose to keep the rear window cleaner.

I think all 2005's with the spoiler installed by the factory are humped. The exception would be 4Runners that have port installer spoilers or are distributed by Southeast Toyota are the flat ones. Most of these (port installed or Southeast Toyota) spoilers are actually an aftermarket spoiler. The third brake light is on the bottom (horizontal surface) of the spoiler rather than face (vertical surface) of the spoiler. The spoiler is (or similar) to the Spoiler Depot version.
 
Got mine off fleabay for $79.95+$25 shipping.Fastest UPS shipping ever. You do have to drill holes, not to bad. Paint job is great w/ led lites. Would buy from again. Not hump back, 2005 4runner.

Yep thats the one. To drill the holes they say a smaller one on the outside and a larger one on the inside of the hatch. What they don't tell you they is a some medal in the middle. Has to be the same size as the outside hole. A uni-bit will not work for this.
