Looks kinda weird without the wing but I like it. Always good to be different.

The rear bumper looks too aggressive now without the wing.
But maybe it just takes some getting used to.

Now put on a stock 350Z rear fascia and we'll be getting somewhere.

I like it a lot...looks pretty sharp. With the money you got for that wing...(prolly a lot) I would use it towards another cleaner spoiler. Something like the Do-luck, Stillen Type 1, or even Kamenari wing. But even like that, it looks good.

So.. let me get this straight. You removed the rear wing and left the wiper?

I am at a total loss.

i think it looks pretty sweet without the wing. Stance is prefect and I like the blacked out front signals. Nice car

Not a fan. The stock wing wasn't just there for looks, it produced measurably more wind tunnel tested rear downforce over the stock Z at 75 mph (I believe the stock Z produces 18 pounds while the Nismo produces 33).

How big are the spacers? What coilovers you go with. I think it looks way better without the wing...personally I would only put it back on if it goes to the track. Btw how did you cover the mounting holes?

It's great car, but I just can't look beyond that rear bumper. Looks good from everything else except the back IMHO.

Hey give us some more info on your suspension setup / size of spacers / whether or not you rolled the fenders....
