Default EVO-R Nismo High Wing fitment question

So I purchased a 2013 touring sport and had the dealership add in the factory nismo spoiler to the deal. I had dropped it off today for them to swap them out and got a call telling me that the new spoiler does not have as many holes as the sport factory spoiler. My first question is how does the dealership not know this before taking the existing one off. They also damaged the factory spoiler and have to order a new one. So I am not looking for a nismo type spoiler that will directly bolt to the existing holes. I looked up the EVO-R Nismo High Wing and it says it will direct bolt but only says up to 2012. Can anyone confirm that it will fit? I emailed thezstore.com but have not heard back yet. Any help is appreciated.

There should be no difference between 2013 and previous years.

So tell them to drill more holes. Just make sure they are not installing the Nismo S-tune wing.

That actually looks like the one they sold me. Same one you can add when you Build and order the car. The car already has the holes, too many is what they are telling me. They said the new spoiler has less bolts than the factory.

Sounds like they got you a nismo s-tune wing, tell them to get you a true nismo wing! Good luck keep us posted!

Don't settle for the S-tune, unless that is what you want.

Here is the reason for the difference in the number of holes. See how the S-tune wing sits just above the third brake light.



Vs. the sport package wing, which sits over the third brake light. So it takes up more of the trunk. Those holes would probably be exposed if a S-Tune spoiler was in place.



The true Nismo wing also sits lower, which would cover those holes.



Evo-r or Seibon wings would sit over the brake light like a true Nismo wing.

Evo-R high wing uses the factory sport wings holes. It should be the same on the 13's since our ***' are the same. Pics in my albums if you want. Its a little larger than the nismo but still looks great with the lines of the car

Thanks for all the info! The dealership is going to put the factory one back on once they get the right color, since the snapped the one that came on the car. Yeah they ordered a yellow one instead of the black, so I have to wait another day. Serious have my doubts about the whole situation. I plan on ordering the GTR wing sometime soon and putting it on myself, plus it is half the price they charged. Any idea of a ballpark on what it costs to spray it? Also I was planning in going directly to the thezstore.com site or is there a better way to go through this site? Thanks again for all the info, should have checked here before even dealing with them for this.

So after all is said and done i have my car back same as I left it with the dealership. I am ordering the wing from thezstore this weekend. The body shop at the dealership was nice enough to offer to paint it for free after all the hassle I delt with.

Gtr wing? How's that going to work? The gtr trunk is flat while the 370z is a big angle down. Is there a kit or something you plan on doing to install? I didn't see it here but the nismo real wing is like $2000 from the dealer so people don't turn their 370's into nismo's.

Good call on both ends. That S wing sucks. Shame nissan has to hold off on the real ones. Not to mention what an insurance hassle if someone's wing breaks in an accident. Have to fork out 2k is insane!

Why did you have the Sport spoiler reinstalled if your planning on installing a different spoiler? You will break and damage the Sport spoiler again. You should of kept it off or sold it until you got the new one you want.

The EVO-R fits great no extra drilling needed. The body shop I had install it charged me $600 for paint and install, and they broke my sport spoiler and scratched my hatch! But fixed the damage but no comp on my broken spoiler. Oh well.

It was not the nisno sport that was on it. The car came with the sport package spoiler, which is what they put back on.
