IMO. Most sportscars look unfinished without a spoiler.

Z1 website says: Please note: 370Z models without the Aero Package's Rear Deck Spoiler will require holes to be drilled in the rear hatch. 370Z models fitted with the Aero Package's Rear Deck Spoiler will require existing holes to be filled and new holes to be drilled.

Z1 highly recommends that installation be done by a professional as painting and proper alignment of the wing are necessary.

I have considered all options, I think it's best for the options out there right now. Not a big fan of large spoilers or without. Still considering the mines.

mines is just a small lip onto your already small spoiler, if your gunna go with stune, get the stune spoiler, or nismo spoiler from seibon, both are medium size.

Or sell that fugly s-tune kit and start over

Everyone has their own opinion, I think it looks best the way it is with the options out there. I'm more concerned with a stillen supercharger kit than changing a spoiler to please someone else on a forum.

After evaluating the Stillen and GTM supercharger kits, I think I will go with the GTM to keep the supercharger sound minimal and maintain the Nissan engine cover.

Lightbulb It's been a while...

Well, it's been a busy summer with little time devoted to car projects. Had my car tuned and added the rear fog light, but that's about it. A couple of pics just as an update. Still need to decide on supercharge, turbo, or stay n/a... All good options imo.
