Spoiler ideas?
Now I'm starting to eyeball some nice rear spoilers; don't want a big wing or an over done funky unit. Here's what I'm looking at so far; feel free to input opinions: Amuse type 02 ($850 range), Seibon NS style carbon fiber ($525 range). I love the style of these 2 models; there are a few less expensive models too that look nice like 3d Carbon N-spec C. One good thing about a gloss CF spoiler is that it doesn't need painting, so a less expensive model custom painted would cost as much, etc.
If any of you know what I mean about these types/styles, that is what I'm interested in so please let me know what you think about the above models and any good suggestions of similar models by any quality make would be appreciated! |
Any plans for a full kit? Any mid wing is going to be difficult to pull off on the stock body.

Humm, I didn't know that.

mr.sparco has a nice low profile lip that I like too, esp when it's done in the half carbon/paint scheme.

Be advised you will still want to get it cleared by a paint shop so it doesn't yellow or turn a green'ish. The NISMO spoiler seems to get a lot of hate these days but I still like it too, needs sides a front lip though.
*by the way, here is a pic of the Amuse type 02; not sure if the car has a body kit installed or now, but a beauty of a spoiler: http://i861.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps62acbbef.jpg |

The Seibon NS (cf):
GL on your decision. |

Very good point and I agree.
Carbon fiber or not, this is known as the Nismo V1 spoiler... there's a base to it too. GL on your decision. |
My friend bought his '07 base (nagaro red) about the time I got my '07, his came with a cool spoiler that looked great. He bought his car in Cali. and I don't know if he had them add the spoiler or not; It looks like that V-1) I'm just saying that I'm not interested in a whole new front bumper, rear diffuser or anything not necessary for the sake of installing a good spoiler.
So, any suggestions of say piecing this together like lip, spoiler and even side skirts if needed, etc? |
There's a wing for you, would help to reach 35,000 feet asap - http://www.topspeed.com/cars/nissan/...ure401393.html

This might be a little more than you're looking for, but I am in the process of getting a gismo v2 replica put on. I have a different rear bumper thats also about to go on which will finish off my "body kit".
Keep in mind the wing is getting painted monday along with the other bumper being put on so from the rear the wing is a bit much without the bumper. Attachment 406250 Attachment 406251 |
check out the vertex wing......i have one that i bought and decided against it (impulse buy)

Like SR71 mentioned above I to like the Nismo V1 style, have for years and it would be a consideration of mine.
Thanks you guys for some items to check out which I will. As I had mentioned, I really am not looking into a full body kit anytime soon, but am definitely interested in a cool spoiler/lip setup. If any of you have good ideas, examples of what would work on my car please post up. I could do a combo (same brand) too, or mixed. *one question I have: why would a smaller, clean looking style like V1 for example "not" be kosher on a stock Z body? Does it mess up the profile, etc? Also, if that's the case does a good quality lip kind of offset the rear spoiler? Mr. Sparco, I've seen pics of your fine car, but could you please post some pics of it to refresh my memory? thanks to all, I'm just trying to narrow things down and want to keep body items to a minimum for now, just something that would work well. *I don't have to focus on high end items either (like Amuse for ex.), but don't want a cheap setup either; want good quality period (sounds like Obama, period). |

Note: I looked at the Veilslide type 1; fancy but I'd take the Amuse type 01 or 2 over it especially since about the same price ($800 range).
Looked at some Vertex, the one that I liked is the "Lang". |

^Craig, in 2 posts above (pics), yeah, that's a little bit too much for what I'm looking for, sorry. It's just too big and gawdy for me. Good looking car you have though!

Just fyi, someone is selling the Amuse 02 for $350 in the socal market place. I almost bought it but decided to keep the spoiler I have now.
