Need your honest opinion guys!

Alright , so I'm driving on a 2011 Beautiful Roadster with Touring and sport package! I find the bubble butt too ugly in my opinion. I like the Amuse Wing spoiler , It's a pretty big one , yet I'm talking about their smallest one for the Z.
I just need some of your opinions if I should go for it or not. The only thing that stop me at the moment is the Re-sale of the car later, there are like 5 Roadsters in my country , and some people might not like it. not to mention I'll have to drill 8 holes on its back!

Help ?

It appears you already answered your own question brotha.

370zRoadster · 06-23-2016, 12:46 AM

I suppose you are right...

370zRoadster · 06-23-2016, 12:56 AM

Thanks to @Hot_Octane , I got these some pics of how the spoiler will fit on the Roadster.
of course I wont have the whole Amuse body kit , but just a start I guess

trick question?

or even a question?

I'm a big fan of spoilers ( see my thread " no rear spoiler " ) that said all 4 of my nissans have had spoilers, I honestly think your Z will look better. My 06 Maxima has A small low profile one,that most people won't even notice, but it still looks better.
INMHO you don't want it to be the main focus on the rear, go subtle,paint matched, and it will compliment your ride!

I think it will look like an abortion.

That spoiler is a bit large for my style but I do like the design. If you like it, go for it - what we think doesn't really matter.

As for resale, with mods you seldom get back what you put in but I can't see that wing (very tasty, even if not something I would install) decreasing the value of the car (assuming it's installed properly). If it were one of those huge wings on meter tall, perforated towers, you might take a hit, but not with that one. To me it says, "I have some class" - some wings say "I trash the hell out of my car."

This. It'll be awful and make baby Jesus cry. Especially if you just have the wing and not the rest of the kit. That being said, none of us are making your payment. If it floats your boat, go for it.

A spoiler will make it look better I believe. Most of the people that put spoilers on the roadster put the one that looks like the OEM on the coup. I really like mine & it makes the rear end look so much better. I know what you are saying about drilling the hole in the trunk lid. It took me about two hours after I knew where they were going to actually pick up the drill & do it.

The coupe-style spoiler on the roadster looks fantastic. That's the way to go for sure.

Aside from the planned spoiler what else is going on the car? It is better if it flows with the rest of the exterior mods. It would be incomplete all by itself.

I agree. Unless you are doing a full kit, Amuse spoiler will look out of place. But it's you car.
