Looks like it's integrated into the spoiler on mine.

It looks like it but it's not. The picture I posted was the US version car. Dare to take your spoiler apart to find out the truth?

Perhaps the sport and non-sport have a different hatch? I don't see the bump across the back on mine hiding under the spoiler as shown on the silver one.

I think this link might answer the question about the rear spoiler and the brake light:

Nissan Spoilers - Nissan Car Spoiler 370Z, Altima, Maxima, Versa

If you scroll down about 1/4 of the page you'll see what I mean. It shows that the spoiler is available painted or unpainted and no light is included.

Also, they use the term "rear spoiler with integrated 3rd brake light" and the word "integrated" means: combining or coordinating separate elements so as to provide a harmonious, interrelated whole. So wouldn't that mean the light is part of the trunk and the spoiler is a separate part making it appear to be one piece?

By literal definition it would mean the that spoiler includes the 3rd brake light, and that it is not a separate piece. I'm going to go take a close up look at mine right now - but I'm not taking it apart
