steve916 Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 Im toying with the idea of fitting something a bit bigger than just the lip spoiler. No BGW's though. Im wondering what are the choices of spoilers available that will cover the original mounting holes of the lip, to keep work down to a minimum. I realise there are a huge amount of different fits etc, but most will require extra holes drilling through bootlid and the original holes filling and painting. Im thinking Nismo V2 or similar. Am I mad? Should I leave it stock? Any advice appreciated. 1 Quote
350zedd Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 How about the TS Strosek style from Tarmac. Fits on top of the lip spoiler. Fitted to Lyndzzz's zed and looks pretty good methinks http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/90404-new-ts-strosek-style-rear-spoiler-299/page__st__20 2 Quote
Lyndzzz Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 Thanks 350zedd Quite a few pictures of the spoiler fitted in my build thread http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/85914-lyndseys-z-im-only-going-to-paint-the-wheels-strosek-spoiler-p5/page__st__80 1 Quote
d95gas Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 And its an awesome spoiler, literally just booked in with Falcon to get mine fitted and some other little paint jobs 2 Quote
chirag1988 Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 I had the V2 fitted on mine and love it! You can see it on my build thread. There were a couple of extra holes that needed drilling on the boot though http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/86570-chirag1988s-build-thread/page__st__20 1 Quote
350zedd Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 Decided what to get yet? Keep us posted, as I'd be interested to see it it in Night Blue Quote

I think the V2 might be a bit too big really. I like the Strosek one though. Pity I can't see each side by side, then I would know for definite. Are you thinking of fitting one Steve? Quote
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 The V2's are a mare to fit and require a lot of prepping/trimming etc The Stroseks need next to no prepping and fairly easy to fit. Something to think about 1 Quote

GMballistic Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 What about the Blitz spoiler like below? Love those. Quite like the duckbill type spoilers too. Some more to look at in this thread: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/59725-which-spoiler/ 2 Quote

GMballistic Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 Be interesting to see what you decide on in the end then Steve. Quote
steve916 Posted December 14, 2014 Author Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) Be interesting to see what you decide on in the end then Steve. I think I'm on that slippery slope Gareth I blame you lot for that My new double din is due to arrive this week, so I'll probably leave til after Xmas before making a definite decision on the spoiler. Already building up a box of bits to do in the new year Edited December 14, 2014 by steve916 1 Quote

steve916 Posted December 16, 2014 Author Posted December 16, 2014 Well, Ive been playing around and trying to decide what spoiler to go for. I bought a cheap spoiler from ebay to trial so I could decide if putting a spoiler on the rear is what I actually want, before spending too much. Here are a couple of shots of the spoiler sitting on the oem spoiler. The verdict is.......... Yes, I like the spoiler look, so I have just ordered a Strosek from Tarmac So, I'll put this one up for sale soon. Quote

I already know I want it colour coded And then I wonder how long it could be before I want a different front and rear, and then the lip would've been a waste of money. Quote
