Haha yeh. Also looks like a unibrow lols.

What inspired ings+1 to make that? Just random? Don't they usually have well thought out parts?

It's like the opposite of the nismo spoiler.

since adding a spoiler will cost money and you are unsure about it, i say don't do it.

Nope that's about right . Usually if you buy from the dealership the OEM spoiler will set you back 400 +/- .

It's really going to be what you want. For me, putting a spoiler on the roadster was a must. It completely changes the way the back of the car looks. The change is not quite as dramatic on the coupe. I installed mine myself. It was a little nerve racking to drill holes in a new car but I am very happy with the way it turned out. I doubt they would have been as anal about it as I was.

First of all I have to say that the spoiler looks great on your Roadster. Secondly, I would love to save money and think I could install the spoiler myself. But if you think YOU'RE anal, just read one of my posts of how nuts I got when a Nissan Service jockey wanted to readjust my seat when he needed to move it to the service bay. Drilling holes in my Z?????? Don't think so!

Thank you for the the kind words Haha, I concede. You may be more anal than me!


So far the only thing anyone but me has done to her is the oil changes (because they are covered under my service plan) and replacing the wiring harness that chafed through in the top. I have installed all the mods myself... both the car and the bike.

Too bad you're so far away. I would have paid you to install mine. If you can get yourself to drill holes in a brand new car, I would trust you with mine!
