Aftermarket spoilers and hood vents for 2015?
So I keep looking and am having a problem finding much information... Maybe I'm not typing in the correct terms or looking in the right places? I really want to see what it would look like and probably buy the 2014 Evo R Nismo spoiler and put it on the 2015. Yes I'm crazy before you even begin to ask.
I can't find much aftermarket wise for the 2015 at all right now. Even up rev only goes to 2014 atm. I just ordered my berks HFC from Kyle(HOUSTON) and already have my Takeda attack CAI (hoping like hell it fits no problems) all that's left for me (performance wise) is m370 and uprev. A rear spoiler and I'll be pretty content of course adding clear bra or paint defender myself basic stuff etc. But right now I'm stuck on the spoiler and I'm going to probably end up calling Uprev I'm sure they already have it just not listed on site yet. Oh and oil cooler when I start to track of course. But seriously anyone know or seen something I haven't for the spoiler option? I loved the spoiler on my 2013 I want it on my 2015 I don't think that's too much to ask. I really don't like the spoiler, it's just too basic for such an aggresive/busy body style. It looks like a really aggressive sport with nice rims with this oem spoiler imo. As far as the hood vents I was thinking the GT-R Vents to get some cooler air in the engine bay good or bad idea?

See if the hatch sizes are the same specs and dimensions (look the same) if they are near the same I am sure you could mount it with minor modifications/drilling. Either way good luck and congrats on the 15 Nismo.

It's the whole hatch area you probably would have to test dummy and take it off as I don't think anyone has done it. I know carbon signal told me they have things in the works for the new Nismo body but I don't know their timetable.
One you take the hatch/spoiler off there will probably be gap. I think cooltoy pointed that out in another thread.

From what I've read the rear hatch has been redesigned so it is a little narrower at the back. I have no way to confirm this specs are hard to find on these cars in general maybe a shop manual? Idk I also want to know my wheel weight but I searched all over the damn place I know the old nismo wheels are around 20 IBS but can't find for 2015. There's a lot of information that is proving difficult for me in general.

Would probably be easier to take a wheel off and get it weighed. Information on the tires is more readily available then do math. Or if you want to be thorough, have the tire removed and each weighed separately.

It isn't the hatch that was redesigned. It was the rear bumper. If you take the Nismo spoiler off to put on any other wing there is going to be a bit of an offset between the hatch and rear bumper. It is how the '15 Nismo spoiler is made to overlay on the hatch. It added thickness that the rear bumper design had to accommodate.

Thanks for the replies guys but I'm just learning about a lot of this and what your saying isn't quite registering with me. So can I fit a 2014 or 2013 Nismo spoiler on my car? Will it look funny. Will it mount properly without drilling? Lastly what I understand from what I just read is that my spoiler will not fit any other 370 except another 2015 Nismo because of the design of the spoiler? How can this be the case unless the hatch dimensions differ from the 15 and 14 down?

Where are you reading that the '15 Nismo spoiler will not fit on any other model? I mean you would need a base hatch or remove your wing or spoiler from previous models but otherwise what changed on the hatch? Is it not shaped the same anymore underneath the '15 Nismo spoiler? All the other dimensions appear to be the same. The taillights didn't change. The rear quarter panels didn't change. Neither did the roof.
