I'm going Amuse in a year. I also have to pay an extra $80 for shipping on top of the $140 you Americans pay.

I still got the spoiler.

My buddy and I are going to make a proper spoiler for this car hopefully this year. I don't like any of the ones offered right now. I just wouldn't drill holes in that nice 370 *** for any of the currently offered rear wings.

I voted yes but only if you're gonna keep it stock.
If you want to modify the exterior down the line, I'd say wait so you won't have to worry about covering the holes in your hatch.

No spoiler here. Not a question of money or ease with waxing (have it done). I just prefer the rich and full look of the Z's back end without complicating it with the spoiler. The crease at the top of the hatch serves the purpose. I've ordered or added spoilers for most of my other cars. I usually like the look. But not on the Z---for me. As it is said, though, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." So go with whatever makes you smile the widest.

Keeping it "real".....i.e. stock!

Default The Results Are In

Okay guys....thank you all for your votes and opinions. Much appreciated! Out of 88 votes so far, 66 of you said yes, 12 of you said no. Although it's not the 90% I was looking for, it's close enough at 84%. Bottom line is that I like the looks with the spoiler also. I just needed that extra push from my 370Z forum brothers to go ahead. I'll be putting my order in for it soon and will post before and after pics when done. Thanks guys!

Well, eBay one, somehow the color matching is always good, and if it isn't, you threaten the guy in china, and you get a refund or they'll send you another

I like the stock spoiler for the coupe - but as I have a roadster there is not a lot out there. I was a simple, subtle lip spoiler.

I guess i'll have to try my had at fiber glass at some point.

A car without a spoiler is like brazilian. Smooth and no downforce. Seriously though, the Z needs one.
