I had actually considered the wing painted factory color, but I dont like the dips in the wing where it mounts either.

I am thinking of keeping the CF look, but powder coating the bolts black to match.

I think that would look good, especially with your black wheels.

I vote for the Amuse wing. If you're going to wing it, wing it.

to me, it's a no brainer: since a wing costs more money, if you are undecided then don't get it.

if you really like it then get it.

No problems to report with the nismo wing, nissan claims 150lbs of downforce but that hasen't been proven one way or the other, that might just be how much it weighs. IMO wings are more of an athestetic thing on production cars, no one really needs one even if you do track the car. I do wish the nismo wing was a little smaller though. I think the Z looks a little silly without at least the sport package spoiler on the back end. Just my $.02
