I don't mind the Z's lip, but prefer it without it, I HATE the spoiler on the G35coupe though.

Not everyone has 19 in wheels with an aggressive lip to beef up the look on the back of the Z.
Alot of folks don't have a spoiler to make a statement with their aftermarket ensemble...i think that looks fine.
However, the stock plus non spoiler look just...It looks too bare for some reason. This is just my perspective.

I plan on getting a Data Systems wing. I really like that one alot...subtle, without any upward angle..just flat and slightly longer than stock. and believe it or not, I am pretty conservative as far as *looks* are concerned. I do like to be different, but I'm definately not a fan of 3ft tall wings, body kits, CF hoods and all the bennihana cr*p...lol

I pulled the brake light reflector overlays off....
I saw it from an angle I hadn't seen before and it made the rear look frumpy....oh well, I'll take some more pictures when I get the wing installed and the PIAAs

interesting you brought up the wheels, cars with Body kits and smaller wheels look even worse, the body kits makes a car look more massive, which makes the wheels look even smaller and more tucked inside the wheel well. Maybe it is just me

But back to my original point... your car looks good without a spoiler because you're rocking those mean wheels. I have wussy little stock 17's and I couldn't stand not having a spoiler. I was starting to have the "porsche boxster sydrome" wondering which end was the front of my car!

Question for all of those who have commented that they DO NOT like the rear brake light overlays.
Do you dislike them because they only covered the front half of the light, or did you dislike them because they were too dark?
I have a set of Bat's vinyl overlays that are "smoked" and not as dark as these on order and they cover the entire light.
Would your opinion change for these?

I think the reason is some people had a very difficult time installing the taillight Overlays. It's not an easy kit to install, particularly the back pieces, but a few member son the board gave some excellent install tips
. I doubt the darkness was an issue, because they're really not at all that dark. 6 out of 10 imo on darkness.
