Do you mean a wind deflector? That's usually for a moon/sun roof which the 370z doesn't come with. Unless you decide to put a moonroof/sun roof. They sell them at most auto places like auto zone/pep boys etc.

Just so you have an answer, its for satellite radio. The guys who have the touring package get it. Otherwise known as a shark fin airplane wing thingy!

But seriously, satellite radio!

Someone already mentioned it, but to confirm it is the Satellite Antenna. What pisses me off though, is that you can not use that for aftermarket HU's. It appears to only work with the Bose system.

I do have to agree that it does look pretty cool. Much better than some flat disc sitting on the dashboard.
