Oh no.... guess I haven't been following closely enough but.... you're changing out that sweet Chargespeed for a Nemo?? Hmmm.... KNO, lots people know that I'm not into body stuff (despite owning a Niz with all the aero junk on it ) but that Chargespeed is the ONLY non-stock bumper I've actually liked enough to price out as a fix for the scuffed up stocker I have.

I mean, the Nemo rearend is fine but I like your car for the subtleness as it stands. But that's just me. I'm sure the Niz rear will look fine, and will still be the most awesome Solar Orange runner on here! Have fun with it!!

I bought it off a member here a couple of years ago. Im not sure of the brand but the quality of the spoiler, however, it's as good as it gets. Everything fitted perfectly without any gaps or modifications what so ever. It requires about 8 bolts and double sided tape to attach. I only put 4 on specific points where I think the most stress will apply up on it. Because of that and the lack of adhesiveness of the tape yet it rattles a little when I slam my trunk shut. It doesn't have that solid thump but that should, but it will change once I get its painted and remove the red strip off the double sided tape.

You're absolutely right mic the chaeggs peed is a more subtle and elegant design for the 350z. It follows the existing body lines or the zed. However Ive had that same bumper for about 7 years now and I want a change. I always like the way the nismo 350 looked but it was really hard to get ahold of their parts without paying a hefty bill on them. Now that the parts are more available, I took advantage of the chance to make the dream zed I always wanted. I know most people will say, but why don't you just buy a 350z nismo instead?. Well the answer is simple. My car is paid off debt free and I'm the original owner. my next zed however (crossing my fingers that's tt and a zx) will be a nismo. but till then I'll keep modding my sexy solar orange .

Well good to hear the spoiler worked out. I bought a replica ings and quality was just pure garbage. Knew it was a risk though. After that, it was between the evo-r blitz or a V3 replica but ended up going with the blitz cause I didn't wanna risk the same with the V3.
I'll be pairing it w/ the TS style diffuser on the way.

The nismo rear should look good on yours though. That rear and the V3 are a match made in heaven.

Thanks dude, it's a 3 piece.


So I was thinking on how to paint the spoiler and the rest of the k11 pieces which include the darker part of the front/ rear bumpers and side skirts. I wanted to paint all those pieces in the k11 color which is the oem gray paint it comes painted or should I repaint it gloss black? I wanted to go to the oem route. How about the wing? Should I do it black to match the roof and mirrors or solar orange? Maybe I can paint everything that's black k11 but the roof? So many options that I've been comtemplating. I need your help on this I can't seem to make up my mind on something lol

Orange base black blade?

I think the K11 is a really sharp color but you have the black roof?

If it were my car I would sell the rear bumper to a local NA&CH and then paint the oem k11 color leave the black roof

Lol. You know nismo white 385 is wanting a chargespeed bumper. I think he's willing to trade but I don't need a v3 rear anymore. AND you have a broski that doesn't need a chargespeed bumper anymore mm mm? Lol

I'm digging the idea of your mcr wing, I can do that in orange with the middle top part k11.

I believe it's k11. I even bought a touch up paint from the dealer in that color
