Thanks Flush! I don't have the craziest build ever but I try to detail as much as I can about most of the mods if I can. Speaking of which, I should have a bunch of goodies coming from Carbon Signal in the coming weeks. :)

Carbon Fiber Spoiler Installed
Well, third time is the charm. After an appointment mistake and a failed install attempt yesterday, I finally have my CF spoiler installed! While I liked the clean look of the spoiler-less hatch, it has always looked like it was missing something. At some angles, it looks great but other angles look awkward at times which the spoiler has filled and more.
Fitment: I bought the spoiler from the370zstore, it was in ok shape but had tons of marring and had some haze which some polishing got rid of. It fits the hatch very well with no waves or fitment issues, however both ends do not stay completely flush with the downward curve of the sides of the hatch. The top leading edge stays perfectly flush with the hatch, however. Looks: I love it. Carbon fiber matches platinum graphite so well, the lighter parts of the weave matching the paint color almost exactly. I am very happy I went for carbon fiber over a paint matched OEM spoiler. I tried to take pictures of the car from a number of angles and lighting conditions as I know some people are interested in this particular wing. Anyways, enjoy the pictures! http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0689_2651.jpg http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0690_2652.jpg http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0691_2653.jpg http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0692_2654.jpg http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0693_2655.jpg http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0694_2656.jpg http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0695_2657.jpg The way the CF weave matches PG is great: http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0696_2658.jpg http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0698_2660.jpg Out in the sun: http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0700_2662.jpg http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0701_2663.jpg http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0706_2667.jpg http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0704_2666.jpg http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0703_2665.jpg http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0707_2668.jpg http://i648.photobucket.com/albums/u..._0702_2664.jpg Now to find a one piece EVO-R carbon fiber splitter. :) |
Well done sir
|
Thanks man, now I need to find a carbon front splitter haha. I was thinking the ING one or the EVO-R carbon splitter, but I wish there were some other options that are more subtle.
|
Looks good Chris, Now lets see more cf parts later on :)

I figured I would post up a quick take off video I shot of the Z and my friend's Saab c900 plus some parking garage throttle blips towards the end. God I love my car!

Nice CF spoiler :tup: :tup:
|
Thanks Paul! I'm jealous of your add on though, I can't wait to see it in person. :tup:
|
Nice!
|
Clean Z!
|
Thanks guys!

Just a couple new shots from Cars and Coffee this morning, along with a video. For now, I am waiting on my interior carbon fiber kit and am on the lookout for an ING carbon fiber front lip or a carbon fiber EVO-R lip to round out my exterior mods for now. :)

Car looked naked before w/o rear spoiler. Noice...coming along well. IMO it needs some balancing out with more c/f or black-out. For example the the fangs and rear fog light. C/F lip will work.
Is it the angle of the photo, the front looks high. Ahhhh....you are missing the oem spoiler that should have came with the car, or you took it off, which is it? |
^^ Car is a non-sport so he didn't have the chin spoiler
nice vid! sounds great. Btw, love the VW minibus in the vid :) |
