Local Shop for Tint + Spoiler Installation

eastwest2300 · 02-09-2011, 01:26 PM

Yeah, I dont like the idea of "replica" I would much rather have a Nissan OEM spoiler. But thats just me.

I would too, but if it looks exactly the same and is of decent quality, then I'm fine with saving a few hundred dollars. Besides, I can buy the eBay spoiler and have it installed for less than the cost of the OEM one.

Thats what Im saying brotha, heck if anything, we could always do something aftermarket that sticks out, and makes your Z different for most likely less.

Spoiler is ordered and should be here next week!

Where did you get it, and how much did you spend?

I got the eBay one I posted the link for earlier. I got It for $139 with free shipping. It comes painted.

You gotta tell me everything about that when you get it, quality and paint wise. If you're happy with it, I may go with it.

Ok, you can come check it out yourself. It should be installed by the next MD meet in 2 weeks.

Sometimes, but it is not the norm. We occasionally hold meets at Gordon Biersch in Annapolis, where we meet up in the evening time. Before he was deployed, MightyBobo was in the same situation, so those were the only events he could attend.

Keep an eye on the Saturday coffee thread, because some weekends we'll do stuff after the morning meets.

Edit: I think there may also be a meet with mostly 350 drivers in NoVA. May want to ask 2theextreme for more details on that.

Where in MD do you work? Maybe we can schedule a meet somewhere nearby so you can join us after work. I don't know if you would want to though after working a 9 hour shift.

Blade, very nice job on those tail lights, please PM me the address, and phone number, I am gonna have that done for sure.

Those things look bad*ss

Here it is boys, the pics of the tint are finally here. Details first. Huper Optik 38% carbon tint on the windows and rear windshield. Not sure what the % is on the vinyl overlays for the tail + brake lights. Total was $285 with life time warranty. Customer service and work was excellent, they even stayed 30 mins past closing to finish doing the work

Now what you've been waiting for:

Here's the album with some more pics:

Come to the MD meet tomorrow to check it out in person. See you all there tomorrow morning!
