Leeroy Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 What's the deal with some 350Z's not having a rear bootlip spoiler? They do look pretty naff without, is it easy to retrofit the standard lip spoiler and does the tailgate need drilling? Cheers, Leeroy... Quote
M13KYF Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 JDM ones dont have it as standard fit compared to UK models Quote
UNABASHED Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 I don't like the bootlip spoiler actually - though I am slightly biased with having a JDM Quote
Leeroy Posted December 3, 2009 Author Posted December 3, 2009 Cheers guys, so no spoiler would be a good indication of a JDM, among the other usual differences. I'm looking for a Zed at the moment so this is useful info for me. Regarding the fitting, are they glued or screwed or both? Thanks Quote
UNABASHED Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 it was an option for the JDM's though (I think?) so if it has a spoiler it doesn't always mean it's a UK model. Quote
BladesGrant Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 I have retro fitted a boot lip spoiler to my JDM roadster, no drilling required. Quote
Leeroy Posted December 3, 2009 Author Posted December 3, 2009 Nice one blades, thanks for that. Not that I don't believe you (!!) but are the factory fit spoilers glued/taped on or bolted? Cheers Quote
JT1703 Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 I believe glued & bolted . I'll be taking mine off in a few weeks so I'll find out for sure. Quote
3FIDDYZ Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 The UK factory fit ones are glued and bolted. M Quote

Cheers The others have already answered this for you, but the difference between the roadster to the coupe is in the great words of Martinmac 'Remember the boot is plastic'. Quote
Leeroy Posted December 3, 2009 Author Posted December 3, 2009 Thanks guys, one of the cars I'm looking at buying is spoilerless and I'd want to fit one and would be nervous at putting holes in the hatch even if the bodyshop does it. Quote
Digsy Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 Thanks guys, one of the cars I'm looking at buying is spoilerless and I'd want to fit one and would be nervous at putting holes in the hatch even if the bodyshop does it. Let me know if you need a spolier as I've a spare knocking around. Quote
Leeroy Posted December 3, 2009 Author Posted December 3, 2009 Nice one Digsy, I'll remember that if i buy a spoilerless Z So were UK Zed's available without a spoiler then? Leeroy.... Quote
Digsy Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 So were UK Zed's available without a spoiler then? Leeroy.... No, they all had one. Quote
