So when I order my carbon hatch Im also going to need a new spoiler. Now do I go with a low profile one with little to no aerodynamic gains or do I go with a larger one that does have more aerodynamic gains?
Here is what Im talking about......
Low Pro spoilers:

I usually am not a fan of any wing or spoiler unless you run T/F or Pro Stock but the orange pic with the big wing looks cool.
That puts you back to even on the votes...

The top one on the blue Z I like but notice how there is a cut out area for the Nissan badge....I wasnt going to add the badges again on the carbon hatch but with that spoiler you kinda have to. Not totally sold on that...
The 1+INGS wing thats on the orange and white Z is really the only GT wing I like. Its a low mount and is actually wind tunnel and track tested so its definatly not rice or as "ghey" as maybe Greycobra thinks LOL The thing is spendy as hell though...
Kolat-
Yeah I liked the spoiler on the Prelude but they dont offer a similar one for the Z that looks good IMO.

GT carbon fiber spoiler would look sick with the rest of body mods you've done. If you didn't allready have all the carbon work done I would say go lowpro.. but there ain't nothing lowpro about your nissan.. When are you turboing the Z..

^ At least we know you aren't queer then
I usually kind of like do-luck ....but thats just a little extreme weird looking, maybe if it didtn' have the points going down...just a squarish end
