Can you install a 370z nismo spoiler on a 370z Roadster

whittier · 03-01-2012, 01:32 PM

I am just curious in the dimensions of the rear of the 370z hardtop in comparison to that of the roadster? Would the Nismo wing fit?

Pretty sure the slope is different... on top of that I am pretty sure the OEM nismo wing is over 1k to buy (possibly 2k) and you never see them for sale used.

I have seen replicas in FRP and CF, but more interested in first seeing a vert with an OEM Nismo spoiler already installed...if possible.

It just looks wierd on the vert IMO.

A photoshopped pic or something can give us an idea.

Seems like it would look extremely bizarre, especially with the top down!

If you have the full kit, I think it will look crazy.

The only spoiler that will work with the vert is the spoiler solutions one on eBay. It's a replica of the standard factory spoiler. I've checked with everyone including seibon and none will fit the vert. Carbon Signal said they were going to make theirs work on the vert but I gave up on that long ago.

Would look real "ricey" as some say or out of place as I would say!

prob look funny

I think it would not work both in the looks and practical applications department. The wing works in conjunction with the hatch and will look too high. Look at the Impule wing, Seibon NS, or the Nismo S Tune.

I was stuck in a traffic jam on I-4 yesterday going west. There was a car on fire in the east bound lanes, so everyone going west had to rubberneck it, but while we were going 20-30 mph a new looking black Maserati Quattroporte GTS pulls up in the lane next to me and starts revving his engine and gunning it when there was room. I couldn't help thinking, "damn! My Z must look better than I thought to get that kind of reaction from a Maserati owner".

I know exactly what you mean. Some guy in a Ferrari did the same while traffic was flowing smoothly at 45. He stays on my tail for a few miles, swing over to my left revs off for a few seconds and takes off. It sounded sweet of course but man, why be so insecure. His car is on top of the food chain and did not have to do that. The Z makes em a little jelly on the looks dept. We paid less to have something so damn sexy.

Sorry for the thread jacking but back on topic. A low wing or a spoiler should work but not the Nismo high wing.

I agreed with most of you guys that the high wings won't look right on a roadster until I saw this Amuse vert. It looks pretty sweet if you ask me.
