My standard line is the Zzzz has the best looking butt I've seen since a G/Fs in the 60s. Just as I would not have added anything to her a$$, I wont add anything to the Bricks! LOL!

I definitely think that the Z looks better with a subtle spoiler like the OEM one. I also like the Nismo spoiler. But I like the OEM splash guards too. I especially don't like the way the Z looks with no spoiler but with a body kit added. If you are going to add a body kit the Z needs a spoiler.

I disagree. I've seen many 350Z with body kits without a spoiler and I love the look. I was definately convinced that I would not like a spoiler on my car when I saw another 350Z lemans sunset (the colour of my Z) go by with a full nismo body kit including the spoiler and I thought to myself how it would look so much better and slick without the spoiler. I'd rather just see the OEM track spoiler on it which is just an "accent" instead of a spoiler.

My idea of no spoiler was also contributed when I saw a 2001+ audi A4 with a body kit and no spoiler. It looked orgasmic. It looked so slick and futuristic. Like the car from "I Robot".

To each his own, but in my opinion if you are going to add a body kit the car needs a spoiler. I too like to OEM/track spoiler too (which my car has) even with a body kit. To me the Z looks better with no spoiler and no body kit than it does with a body kit and no spoiler.

Me neither. Looks so smooth w/o it. I like my Z like my women clean, smooth and shaved.

I have the '05 without the spoiler and it looks just fine, but I do plan on getting the low profile OEM rear spoiler...it accents the rear nicely IMO, without looking ridiculous like that Mitsu Lancer EVO.

However, I'm NOT going to buy it at Nissan....They quoted me $350.00 for the spoiler + $50.00 to install...."I was like WTF?? That's MORE than my car payment, dude!".

I can get it from SpoilerSmart.com - or - SpoilerDepot.com and pay around $160.00 or so.

I DO hate those massive rear wings some peeps have on their Z's....looks too boy-racer and juvenile to me...again that's just IMO. To each his/her own I guess.

some of the nicest z's i've seen have been the cleanest. no wings or splash guards or skirts.

the 1 area nissan's designers didn't get it right is the front bumber... needs a lip at least.

Gawt dayam!

100 bucks off of a fellow member, cut off the bolts and 3m taped on the back for me. No scars on the trunk lid, or in the wallet.

160 is not bad either, considering it's new.

We need a “rear spoiler” poll.

Be careful with the curb man, you could ruin your front bumper there.
