EVO-R 370Z Highwing

chrischhorn · 01-09-2013, 12:52 PM

Looking through the pics, the only thing that kills it for me is how the edges turn vertically down where as the authentic Nismo turn down and out at an angle to follow the body lines.... Still may not stop me from this but bleh lol.

I had that concern too. It's not noticeable at all once installed. And the $2,000 savings helped a tad too

Only thing about the wing I don't like is that it's right In the center of the rear view mirror making it almost useless.

Nismo spoiler is only 5 cm shorter. trust me, youre not gaining/losing much if you go with either. your reverse cam is your best friend after one of these. i thought the same thing after driving my friends nismo but then getting out to look at it and only thought was "damn....."

I know, from the outside it looks perfect.. but i meant while driving, if you look in the rear view mirror the wing is right in the middle which makes it really hard to see cars behind you.

any other choices on spoilers that use the OEM sport spoiler holes?

Don't think so.. I believe seibon NSM goes over the OEM holes. But not sure if it actually uses them.

cooltoy · 01-13-2013, 09:44 PM

You are correct.

Lemers · 01-13-2013, 10:36 PM

the Seibon CF Nismo uses the holes made by the OEM Nismo spoiler, which is not the same as the OEM sport.

So I just ordered the EVO-R Nismo High wing from the Z store...I just want to share some of my experience so far.

Right out of the package I found a deep scratch in the rear of the wing.

I don't think it can be buffed out.
Then near the sharp edges of the spoiler where it bends downwards, the carbon fiber weave is completely exposed/cracked. If you run your finger along that edge you'll instantly realize that it's rough and not smooth like the rest of the spoiler.

Right now The Z store is happily to work with me for an exchange but I have to wait for 3-4 weeks. Hopefully the next one will be better. Keep you guys updated.

Sorry to see ya off to a bad start. Are they comping you anything for your time? Kinda sucks to have to wait another month.....

axmea? · 01-15-2013, 01:58 AM

Sorry to hear about the blemished purchase. Hope EVO-R takes care of you.

Jasonle · 01-15-2013, 05:18 AM

That's good there working with you on that. That sucks tho for another wait. GL

douji · 01-15-2013, 06:09 AM

No, I guess shipping is comp, so I'm ok. I was expecting the worst for them to not even cover that --- that would have sucked if that was the case. I wasn't ready to fork out another ~$100 to ship it back.

The Z store said they would inspect it carefully next time before they ship anything out next time for me. So we'll see...

The link is listed below:
Carbon Fiber Listed $549.95 + shipping
FRP Listed $439.95 + shipping
