I got it today, 10 business day after I won the auction. It came nicely packaged and color matching was dead on. I found that if I move the spoiler back so that the crease on the trunk was inside the spoiler, the front and back was dead on. I think the greateset thing about this is not having to take my car in to have it painted/color matched, it was done in 15 minutes.

But,
-I dropped it by mistake and a little scratch on the edge, totally my fault
-Spoiler depot has had their ebay membership removed for a month, don't know why.

I wouldn't put it on my roadster, I don't like the look. Thats just my personal opinion though. When I first looked at it I liked it but when I looked closely it just didn't meet my style. Can't go wrong for 220 shipped though if you like it.

Just doesnt look like its part of the car, looks like somone just put it on the trunk lid so they could get there keys out or something hehe.. If it was molded into the trunk lid that might look hot....

Just my opinion... I know some peeps don't like my Stillen Spoiler also, so to each there own

Here's a good comparison of the two for those interested




It pretty much comes down to prefrence. The Reason I like the Stillen it gives the Roadster a Longer look, where as the other spoiler keeps the stock round look.

Bubble is that the ebay wing? If not were did you get it and how dose it fit?

I like the small wing and would not even consider the stillen wing.

Car look good!

I like the stillen. How does it attach? Stick on or does it have to be screwed in?

They give you the double stick tape to install it with, but the body shop that worked on my car didnt feel comfortable using it, so they used glue (the stuff they use to put corvettes togeather).. I'll never have to worry about it falling off Although If I ever wanted to remove it, it would be a pain...

I've noticed when I close the trunk now, it slams shut. Took me 5 second to realize the added weight of the spoiler is causing it. I guess it's a good thing as it now closes properly on it's own.

Received my replacment spoiler a couple of days ago. I tried to see how well it would fit on my 350Z Roadster's trunk. It doesn't. No matter where I place it on the trunk lid, there are major gaps. I had to call spoiler depot yesterday and they are sending a FedEx call tag to have it shipped back to get my money back. I've been trying to get one of these for my ZR since last November. What a hassle.
