I'm a fan of the OEM and Blitz though. Both can pull off a clean look.

I dont care if its a ferarri with that spolier they are ricer! and second of all the nismo dosent need that spolier. You can achieve the downforce with a different style. Those huge wings ruin a Z!

Wings work on some cars.... You have to strike a nice balance. If your going to put a wing on I think you need an agressvie set of wheels and a body kit. No body kit = No Wing! I had my car finished with no wing and remember it looked terrible without a wing. I had the wing siting around and added it. It was a big improvement.

trust me, I was like you at first about the spoiler on a nismo z! I did not like it at all.
But after seeing some pics of member that have nismo without the spoiler, I changed my mind. I did not say that the spoiler was beautiful or anything, I stand correct that a nismo Z NEEDS that spoiler to complete its look.
Downforce is not the center of this discussion. Plus, it's not like we drive 100+ miles on the street in order to need downforce help.
Do a little search for some pics of a nismo car without the spoiler, you will know what I am talking about.

Unless you have a nice body kit, rims, etc...I'd say don't go with anything more than a real inconspicuous lip.
Personally, I don't like spoilers--at all. Wings, spoilers, lips, etc. make the car look tall and (IMHO) ridiculous. We (most of us anyways) spend so much $$$ trying to give our car a low profile and squated look...then to break more bread on a wing/spoiler?
To top it all off (no pun intended), they [spoilers/wings/etc] can only be functional at crazy high speeds--if anything.
I've yet to see a "classy" or "tasteful" wing. Some lips are cool and may go well with certain cars. I just like the really clean look of a bare hatch. To each their own.
