Have a question, just picked up my Ings+1 low mount carbon fiber wing and am getting a Seibon cf hatch soon to mount it on. Has anyone done this? What is involved to make sure the hatch doesn't crack or get damaged? Any info, much appreciated.

 

Youre gonna put a carbon hatch on a yellow Z? hmmmm...and in Arizona too...hmm...

 

Yes I am, the Z is garaged 95% of the time.

 

I have been looking at getting one of those wings, please pm some picks when you install it. As far as the hatch I know that some like Varis offer models with extra renforcment for GT style wings. Not sure how Seibon's are setup though.

 

^ +1 on the pics. Did you buy the wing that was for sale here?

 

You'll want to have some plates fabricated for the underside of the hatch for the spoiler to attach to via bolts in order to give it stability.

 

Yes I did, good guy and great wing. Anxious to put it on, but can't mount it to my stock because it currently has a cf Nismo replica. Instead of repairing I'm thinking of just going all cf.


Thanks for the advise, guess I'll have to find a shop that can do that for me.

 

I've got a customer trying to put a wing back on his Seibon trunk and he thought it wouldn't be safe. I know Cheston put a wing on his fiberiages hatch, I think he fabricated some support brackets.

 

What is different about the Fiberimages and Seibon hatch?

 

are u on the local az350z boards?!?!

 

Yeah, I am. Been a member there a long time.

 

haha well who are u then? my names the same on the boards...

 

max350Z. Haven't been very active lately. Just getting back into modding again and so will hopefully be on more.

 

Well I got the Seibon hatch and Ings +1 spoiler on today! So just had to grab a few pics, don't mind the tape, the window was just put in and I had to leave that on for a bit.

 

What does your rear brace cover say??

 

Beef with Brocolli

 

wow, i don't know what to say about that hood.

 

Looks awesome ! I've always like the contrast between yellow and carbon fiber. What did you end up doing for bracing?

I'd say get the roof, a-pillars, and mirrors to complete the carbon fiber look.

the Seibon hatch (side areas) are pretty thick to begin with. has plenty of fiberglass underneath there that putting a side mounted wing should be ok w/o additional support.. Even the Nismo V2 wing fits and installs fine (i.e. Volk350z's setup)

 

Nice, would like to see some more pics from other angles too
