Default About to buy 350. Which spoiler is this?(pic)

Hi guys,
I am just about to buy a 350z this coming week. It is a used car with low mileage. Do you guys happen to know what kind of a spoiler this is that's on the car at the moment..
Im not really a fan of the current one and want to replace it or rather not have the current one.
Just curious what type/brand this was.

It's the American Airlines type-R

No really, it's probably just a universal spoiler that was made in China. Good move if you take it off

That's the RSX Type S spoiler. Rumor has it that it adds 20HP plus buckos of downforce to your car!

To the guys who replied with smartass comments, its getting a bit old. These airplane and hp/sticker jokes hardly crack a smile anymore. And as I said, I dont plan on keeping this spoiler on.
The others, thanks yeah cant wait to get it! Im coming from a tt bpu+ supra, so hope this car gives me as much enjoyment as my supra did.
Also, I read somewhere that the gulf spec 350zs come with 294hp instead of the 287hp. Any truth to that?

This is from a very famous company called "RICE"
Name of this spoiler is "RICE SPOILER"
This spoiler alone cost 5k. Get the Z. It's a bonus

It's not a veilside ( <-- this I know for a fact ). It looks more like the Stillen spoiler.
