custom 350z spoiler molded into factory spoiler! - Page 2

Not a fan of it..however the one thing that makes it work..is the downward slope on the side of it matches the slope on the rear kit piece..almost perfectly. So atleast it flows in that respect.

that is something i went for. also, the main body line on the car flows well w/ it i think. thanks for noticing that small factor that took some time to perfect!

That looks alot better in those pics.

WeibSunder · 07-07-2008, 11:05 PM

Blah, I know it's lame so everyone shut up, I did a quick PS of the wing....

I think it looks better.

Bryan · 07-07-2008, 11:12 PM

I dunno, looks a bit awkward to me. I'd like to see how it would look if it were a little lower, however I'm sure that's not what you plan to do. Nice work nonetheless.

LukeL · 07-08-2008, 10:38 AM

I like it the more I look at it. I really like those wheels too. Are they American Racing Casino's? The paint is a cool concept and I dig it.

You should tear those tails apart and paint the chrome to match.

Exodus · 07-08-2008, 10:44 AM

+ for creativity but I totally dislike that body kit. Maybe if you had a different kit that spoiler would look better.

elementdrummer · 07-08-2008, 01:42 PM

ok, to reply to all the comments. i think i would need the stock spoiler level, because i wanted stock mounts and it would look to awkward w/ out it. plus alot more work, but the PS looks good, now i know wat it would look like.

As for the tails, i was thinking about doing that, but concerned about getting them to seal properly again.

Yes, the wheels are american racing, i love them. had eagle 16's, then offbrand 20's, but these 18's r perfect. thanx.

To be honest, the body kit isnt what i really wanted, and i didnt know the rear bumper came up how it does above the exhaust (i hate that), but i do w/ what i got. I didnt do my research a year ago when i was 17 looking at body kits.

the new paint will include more shading around the tears, shading around vents, and also pearlescent blue over the white pearl w/ some blue diamond cut over that. should look even better!

i like no matter what anyone else says its different and like me you should be different. i dont like when everyone does the same thing. you need yours to stick out in a croud. im customizing a spoiler to fit to mine ill get pics when its done. i have a 96 GA but i luv this spoiler it looks sweet. the body kit is okay, but really i like the SC/T style. that looks bad ass. but hey you do with what ya got. very nice job with the custom work very nice.

SikMindz · 07-08-2008, 02:13 PM

Being different does not equate to being tacky. My old GA looked SIMILAR to tons of other GA's out there but I put my own spin on it.

Sticking out is all fine and dandy, but you can stick out in both a good way or a bad way..and the bad way ISN'T so great..

looks like its on backwards

if it hanged over the back ud have something going

CantBeatIt96 · 07-08-2008, 09:14 PM

i know stickin out can be tacky like alot of mexican vehicles sorry to any mexicans that read this but most of them have very bad tastes in stickin out and builds on cars(or just any moving item). i know, but this is a decent way of stickin out. maybe it would look better if it was lower. but hey if he likes it that wat it is goin to be. i think personally its a good way of stickin out. i get tired of seein the same old SC/T spoiler and the other stock spoiler. i hate the aluminum spoilers they are all gay, no matter what. but yes your right there are two ways of stickin out, this isnt one of the bad ones. you need to use you imagination and see it with paint on it.

bryanw0087 · 07-09-2008, 10:00 AM

props on doing it yourself, it will look a million times better painted... but until your car is finished it cant really be judged by other people... i just hope you finish it before you drive it around... also, your exhaust looks really awkward to me

elementdrummer · 07-09-2008, 01:28 PM

ok guys, ok. so the exhaust was done a year ago. stock exhaust but w a camaro magnaflow muffler and some tips. haha, the body kit didnt cover it up as well as i thought. as for the spoiler, i tried to make it sit back further, but the way the 350z spoiler mount was it just wouldnt work. thanks again for the props on custom work.

i get my diamond cut blue pearl in a week, so in aobut 9 days itll be painted! i hope =/

update on the front bumper, finally filled in those holes! personal requests...

ehsan · 07-09-2008, 02:03 PM

i like the originality ... i dont even like that spoiler on the z ... just doesnt do it for me on the ga either

himfanzach · 07-09-2008, 08:47 PM

That is going to look awesome with those holes filled in cant wait to see it painted.

I was just thinking to myself since you have your license plate sitting lower in the grill like that I would fill in the gap on the bumper were the plate is suppose to be.

I dont think I have seen that done before but I think it would look
