Default Nismo Wing w/Veilside V3 Body Kit

I currently have the Veilside V3 body kit installed on my car and am kinda looking for a wing to complete my body. I have thought about the Gia Cuzzo, but I would have to have it imported and I am not really wanting to do that. I also have thought about any of the Veilside wings, but I think they are a little over-the-top! Yeah, I know the body kit is, but I like it! Anyway, I saw some pix of the Nismo wing on a Z with the Veilside V3 body kit and I really like the look. What do you guys think? BTW, thats not my car below.

TIA,
Zach

The V3 is an aggressive kit... the wing is a little too mild for these types of kits. Just my opinion.

It looks ok, but I think this one would look better.

Those sides and rear look nice with the wing, however i think a shorter, rounder front bumper would look better with the wing, that pointy long nose look just doesnt seem to flow with the wing as well as some other front bumpers.

It works, but I think there might be better options.

Throiw some out there man! I just thought of the Nismo wing because it is cheap, compared to others. I really want the Gia Cuzzo, I think but it would be quite costly since I would have to import it.

Hmm...

IMO...with an aggressive kit like that, you need a fairly aggressive wing. How about the EVO-R Type-E wing? It's the replica of the Nismo GT wing which looks like this:

Damn thats sexy!! Too bad the price is $700. I was looking at the Nismo wing solely because I can get one from Perf. Nissan for around $300-350. I basically want to finish the body with a good looking wing that is not going to break the bank!

For those of you who have answered the poll with a "Yes, Possibly" please elaborate. I am not sure what the he!! I meant when I said "possibly".

Yeah, your poll was a bit confusing. Should've just been Yes, Looks Okay, & No. I personally think it looks okay but like what some members have pointed out, you can probably find something that looks better. The Nismo looks narrow but I think you need something that has a wide profile to match your kit.

I agree about my post too. I just didnt want to say "yes" or "no". Too plain, but oh well. Its a little late in the game. I wanted the Veilside V3 wing when I first got the kit, but I think its a little too much.

Sorry, I was talking about looks! Price is a little more than I was wanting to spend as well. And BTW, I got the body kit for $1500 when it was originally selling for $2100+!

Nice! Yeah, like I said...it doesn't look bad at all. If it meets your budget & the look you are going for, then get it. Worst case, you can sell it & buy another one if something else catches your eye.

BTW...not sure how you feel about this spoiler but I'm just throwing this out there since I thought this looked pretty good & not so over the top. This is Rick's car from Status. I think there are some better pics from the Performance Nissan Meet but I'd have to dig it up.
