Actually looks pretty nice, especially for such a low price.

Not bad but with the cheaper products you need to worry about itment issues.. Some are fixable and some aren't.. Clearly in the first pic is way off but not bad for 70 bucks.. Still looks like a trunk spoiler on the roof..

So I got one of these...for FREE! My friend ordered one for his G35 and they sent the wrong size...told him to keep it and resent the proper size. The wrong sized one happens to fit my car!

I think it's cuz we both emailed the guy asking questions around the same time..he got confused and sent a GS one instead of G35.

Dry fitting looks pretty good...possibly some gap at the side like UC drewskii had. I plan to post pics and comments after paint and install....which would probably be later sometime this summer (gotta drop money on suspension first!)

Please take some proper pics please at least a 20' side shot of whole car. The wing looks interesting... Can you tape her up and take a shot? I'm just curious how the curve will flow with the rest of the car...

I have the same spoiler!! Fits perfect and matches perfect. Didn't have the gap tho. Mine is flexible, so on the ends you just have to line it up with rubber piece.

It just may be a good fit but the one that was posted up appears to be off on the right side probably because it was not lined up correctly.

Curious too, I think it'd look a little better if the curve/flare was a little less dramatic but would like to see some more pics as well. At the price roof spoilers are going for now I'm tempted to pick one up.
