Default Anyone seen that "Flat" spoiler on the back?

I just saw one drive thru here in Fremont Seattle, had a largish flat looking kinda spoiler on the back (reminded me a lil of a mustang one) dont tell me people are already spoiling the looks...it had an LED segment in it too. It did'nt look like the stock one at all

Did it have pedestals? Or did it look like the old Z32 spoiler?

Sure it wasn't a G35c with the spoiler. That one is kinda flat. Not sure if it's got the 3rd brake light in it though.

IMO--- the above pictured spoiler (black) and the NISMO are very good looking on the Z.... better than stock, IMO

It is a 300ZX Kaminari spoiler made to fit the 350Z. =) It does look good.. need more pics though.

actually, its not a 300ZX spoiler made to fit a 350, its a kaminari design strictly for the 350 that happens to look like a 300ZX spoiler, I took that pic of it at SEMA and trust me, theres no way that would have come from a 300ZX, its a bit longer than a stock 300ZX spoiler, and way more curved and not as wide since the 300ZX and 350Z rear ends are completely different heres another view

and another, you can barely see in this one but the bottom section curves down to follow the edge right above the tail lights

Krinkov,

Did you talk to anyone there about it? Was it wind tunnel tested? Results? Did they mention how much it was on the market for?

Thanks

no we actually didnt get to this till the third day of SEMA and we were so hung over and exhausted I was barely able to hold the camera straight, our ears were ringing so hard from the clubs the night before everybody sounded like the teachers in Charlie Brown cartoons anyhow but I dont know of any Kaminari body pieces that are actually wind tested, I think they are more of the 'form over function" brand of body kit makers(as if theres any other kind...)

You must have been in "LIGHT"? I hope you didn't waste your time in Babys!
