You got a side by side comparison by any chance?

I just got my NISMO wing. It was $320.00 + $75.00 to paint local. I'm glad I went with the real thing too. Looks much better...

Perfect fit. Still works with original hatch stays. Harder time "popping" lid, though. Needs stronger springs. Already broke one and had dealer replace under warranty last month.

Noticed difference right away at high speed. You too???

Did you remove the counter weight from the rear door. This makes it a lot easier to open/shut the door. If you remove the plasic inside of the door - its just clips so easy to remove. You will see the weight bolted on the door. Just unbolt it

I ordered the JDM Replica version, and was not impressed. Luckily the vendor let me ship it back and get my $ refunded.

I am spending the extra money and gettting the real deal.

Does the Nismo Wing tips that Performance Nissan sells, touch the sides?

I got the replica, I think the quality is very good just a little more prep before painting! Main thing is I know my body shop guy well and he painted it for a case of beer and some hang out time! That's about as good as it gets!

Looks good. Did you have the OEM lip spoiler before?

Not really a spoiler question, more of a body kit question, if I get side-skirts and have the splash guards, can they be safely removed to fit the side-skirts without any "residue" from them being on there so long?

No I did not have the OEM lip spoiler before. I didn't really like how the OEM lip spoiler looked.
