You forgot to mention the Vertex spoiler. Best one if you dont want the OEM style.

Othewise go with OEM one or OEM style.

If you get Balsarini, definitely also get the front end they go perfect together.

nothing against the central 20... I just prefer the fact that the INGS spoiler is subtle, but not duplicative of stock... to me (AND THIS IS JUST AN OPINION) the central 20 looks like the stock spoiler only moved back about 4 inches.

If you buy the original balsarni spoiler, you have to remove the rear Nissan Badge. It will not cover the rear 2 badge holes. I have show this before. Picture show is one I have on my 350Z which covers the holes.

I prefer the Data System Illusion rear spoiler myself. Which is why I bought it ($415 shipped). Plus I found an authorized distributor in Houston that had it in stock, so that sure helped the cause! Slightly larger then OEM, but still flows with the lines of the car, IMO. It's in the shop being painted right now. I should have pics of it on my car later this week.

For a teaser, this is it just sitting on the car pre-painted.

I know the OEM has bolts and the Data systems doesn't. What about the others? I'm not big on drilling into my car, but I don't want my $500 wing flying off at speed. So far I think I'm going with the OEM.

Yes, this is true the Data Systems does not require bolting. I have discussed with the manufacter and another who has had this spoiler installed (w/just the tape) for 3 months now (in 80-100 degree heat) and neither has found any problems with this type of install on this spoiler.

I'd also prefer not to have to drill into the car, so I am going to use the tape with the spoiler and then keep a close eye on it during this fun Texas heat. I don't suspect that it will just "fly off" as their is a double row of tape used (contact patch goes completely around the whole spoiler).

The Modena II spoiler by EVO-R also doesn't require to drill holes. All you need is use 3M double side tape.
