New spoiler for your Z
 
Well I was trying to get a mockup of a spoiler we will be creating. And phase 1 is complete! Next is creating a fiberglass body to build and shape the spoiler. What do you guys think? It will be available in fiberglass and carbon fiber.

Its confusing I know but you can see the basic lines and such.

FuszNissan 07-06-2009 09:39 PM

Looks good, kinda like the mines, but covers more of the stock spoiler.

m4a1mustang 07-06-2009 09:39 PM

I like the idea. Will have to wait to see a completed piece.

Kinda sorta, but yes it does cover all the spoiler and wont have studs, screws, or hardware visible.

370Z Purist 07-06-2009 09:46 PM

Is it kind of like an extended lip?

SpawnAeroJohn 07-06-2009 09:47 PM

Its a cap that goes over the stock spoiler similar to the mines spoiler extension. But ours will cover much more and flow with the lines of the Z.

FuszNissan 07-06-2009 09:50 PM

Start CF'ing that thing.

Modshack 07-06-2009 10:07 PM

I like!

SpawnAeroJohn 07-06-2009 10:12 PM

Noice!

fly yellow 07-06-2009 10:32 PM

I'm liking this idea. Do you think you may be offering CF packages with multiple items? Do you plan on doing overlays for the B pillars?

SpawnAeroJohn 07-06-2009 10:38 PM

B pillars will be direct replacements. As far as packages not so much but I will give equal discounts to returning customers and those who wish to order more at once.

Right now what we have available to order is...

rear bumper valance (pics coming at the end of this week)
the CF roof
and front lisence plate backing.

Accepting no more orders on the front lisence plate backign since we have 3 already taken. We are how ever accepting one order of a CF roof of rear bmper valance.

We are offing a special discount on which ever order since we want to get our stuff out there. PM us if intersted ;-)

bullitt5897 07-06-2009 10:42 PM

John, I think our lil idea is looking GREAT!!! Keep it up!

510z 07-07-2009 09:04 AM

im kidding

m4a1mustang 07-07-2009 09:05 AM

Make it in something other than CF, too. I just will end up having it painted.

nogoodname 07-07-2009 09:10 AM

made in CF or fiberglass

Round 2.. Fight

Endgame 07-07-2009 10:15 AM

Right now, I think it looks VERY promising. Any chance you will ever do the complete spoiler in carbon fiber?

Is it just me or does the very top of the spoiler stick up just a little higher than the rest of the lip?? Z06 style? If so: HAWT!!!!

Staying tuned.

SpawnAeroJohn 07-07-2009 12:13 PM

FuszNissan 07-21-2009 11:10 AM

How's the spoiler coming?

qnsblvd 07-21-2009 01:15 PM

A little off-topic but I think an Esprit-style wing would look good on the 370Z (and a little uh ostentatious)::ughdance:

SpawnAeroJohn 07-21-2009 02:20 PM

Holy spoiler! That remindes me of a civic with a large fiberglass shapely spoiler. The kind of spoiler that you can use as a handle to push when the vtec brakes down.

As far as our spoiler. Its still in the works. Ill post a teaser pic this week :D

CBRich 07-21-2009 05:26 PM

The layout looks pretty good. It's hard to see the size though without it being on the car.

SOLISIMO 07-21-2009 07:09 PM

Hey man Ive sent you two pm's one here and one on G37 and both showing that they were read? Did you recieve my spoiler yet?

Looks like a giant can opener. Guess that would come in handy on a camping trip.... maybe we can add it to the CamperZ.... or is that 370ZCE (Camper edition)

Its confusing I know but you can see the basic lines and such.

It's overall size and angle reminds me too much of the Roush 427 Mustang spoiler. On that car it just looks too damn obtuse and completely looks out of proportion to the overall size of the rear deck of the car. It really makes the Roush 427 rear look stupid. From the pictures you have posted of the proto this one is looking to maybe go down that same road and have the same proportion issues with the 370Z.

Sorry but I'll pass...

SpawnAeroJohn 07-21-2009 11:07 PM

Simply.. We wont release something the public does not like. If everybody does not like it then we will accept into consideration ideas to alter it. We are working for you guys. Like I always say.. You guys are the boss. We just do the work. :)

I might just be somewhat bias though with the 370Z. The outward appearance of this particular Z model (the 370) is simply elegant and spot on. This time Nissan really got it right.

The bias I have is like when you order a dinner from a restaraunt and when they bring it too you it just looks to good to disturb or eat. That is how I feel about this particular Z model. To me anything that is being fabricated is simply just not needed or desireable as the car's lines (or lack of) and curves are really near perfect no matter what angle teh car is viewed from. To get that kind of "look" usually only happens once or twice in a car model's entire life.

Some particular model years just don't need any help...and this 370Z is one of those models.

SpawnAeroJohn 07-21-2009 11:21 PM

Well said! I feel that way about the GTR.

I'm glad you understand where I'm coming from. I have met so many folks that just throw everything onto their car that was ever made by 3rd-party manufactures and it just completely ruins their car's natural look and even sometimes it historical heritage.

Mustangers have this particular problem in a huge royale way. They need to take a lesson from the Vette folks and let the car's natural look speak for its beauty.

htt760 11-13-2009 12:09 PM

so how's the spoiler is coming? I think this would be the alternative to the MINES CF one that cost's a arm and a leg, if you can come out with even a fiberglass one that is nice and decent...
I think it will be very popular and sleek looking!

Cheers

MeetJoeAsian 11-13-2009 11:24 PM

I would love it if the Z has a spoiler that rises up when you hit a certain speed...hehehe...

This type of mentality is actually what I look for before even looking at the product. Why buy the product if the buying process isn't enjoyable? I look forward to the CF or fiberglass teaser.
