Default Roadster wings?

Besides the Stillen and factory low profile options, what are some of the other ones that are out there?

I am not talking about those ugly ones that teenages put on their Civic's that look like crap.

Not much more than that to choose from. Unless you want to venture into generic e-bay land. LOL
Stillen looks pretty good IMO.

The Data Systems Wing is nice.

Here is some pictures of it that I found on the forum:

Spoilerdepot.com has a Z Roadster wing that is very low profile, cheap, excellent paint match and easy to install (once you know what you are doing.... )

I'm not sure if that would fit the ZR.


Not crazy about the Stillen...

Yea, the Data Systems Wing will not fit the roadster due to the trunk dimensions are different than the coupe. But Central 20 makes a wing for the roadster here is the link: http://www.central20.co.jp/goods/index.html Click on the Z33 on the bottom of the page to see the wing.

THERE ARE NO factory spoiler for Roadster. You either go with stillen for the aggressive look or elegan look of the spoiler from spoilerdepots.com

There IS a factory option. The low profile spoiler that is an option on the Z will fit on the ZR. This spoiler is the same one that spoilerdepot.com sells.

The NISMO one will not work nor would it look right.

The factory spoiler does not fit the ZR. The ZR trunk has a different shape and there is a wide gap that prevents the spoiler from falling flush with the trunk. The spoilerdepot spoiler is a knock-off of the factory spoiler that has been specifically designed to correct this and fit on the ZR trunk.

I ordered mine from Bulletproof automotive, any bodyshop with a good fiberglass guy can make it fit. Glad you like my car, it was alot of work and alot of trial and error, but in the end its all worth it.

Probably add a little here and subtract a little bit there. Afterwards sand down prep, paint, install, and dodge panties thrown at you from every corner.

I hope "clean" ones. Just don't throw unless 100% cotton. Poly blend might scratch the paint!!!
