I'm getting psyched! Only a few more days away, and my butt will be in LA for the Last Show of MOTLEY CRUE ever on New Years Eve. It will be epic! Sex, Drugs, & Rock N Roll!!! (just joking about the drugs). Looking forward to going to THE WHISKEY niteclub.

Advice needed! Has anyone purchased a aftermarket rear spoiler? If so, what manufacturer do you recommend? We're you able to install it yourself? Or can you recommend a body shop you used that did it well?

I bought a replica OEM spoiler off eBay and had it installed at Christian Auto Body in Laurel. No complaints after having it on for nearly 5 years.

Do you happen to remember the name of manufacturer? I've been reading reviews on Duraflex and still can't determine if they're good or not. Reviews were 50/50 pro/con.

No they aren't all the same, check out the reviews. Some flail/vibrate violently at 80mph+, others crack, some don't even Line-Up evenly. Plastic vs fiberglass, so many choices.

Stay far, far, far away from Duraflex. You will be very disappointed in it honestly, fits like crap and very cheaply made.

Used OEM, Seibon, I think Carbon Signal may have a few good ones also. We run the Aero Jacket Spoiler on Forsbergs car and it fits real well ( And looks cool! )

I do have a Seibon NSM wing sitting here at the shop I would be willing to cut a great deal on if you like that style!

Thanks. I'd like to stop by MA Motorsports after the holiday and check the spoiler & shop out. I'm looking for a shop that can lay a work plan for my Z. My ultimate goal is to purchase & have installed a Stillen Super Charger, but first I want to build up/make stronger the engine to the best performance prior to getting Stillen installed.

Depending on what you want to do beforehand, adding the supercharger may throw everything off.

That's why I want to work with a reputable shop who knows the goals I have planned. Let's face it a engine build is at least twice as expensive as just the super Charger depending on how much you want to spend. Putting a super Charger on a 90,000 mile + engine, when your the 2nd owner, could be disastrous! I want to build my Z smarter, by ensuring its foundation is solid.
