I've been waiting almost a year for this, the perfect price, and perfect timing.. At 1am this morning, a post feel into the screen of my iPad, and a hour later and 250$ a 2010 GTR spoiler was in my trunk, on the way home.. Now I need to get it molded.. @Kiske, wanna make another set of molds :)
In perfect condition, just missing three small screws for a cover in the underside.. Will order from Nissan tomorrow http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/n...ps1d89aa22.jpg And yes it's dark and can't see shit but I couldn't wait http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/n...psd13c199c.jpg |
When it is fully done I due a photo op. Assuming I can move the spoiler forward (all the bottom sides of my mounts are solid piece of 3m moulding attachment tape for added support. I can't pull it off, the decklid will bend first. :( I hope to leave it in the sun all day to make the take let loose a bit easier. Just needs to come forward 1/8: or so so all my posts will be in proper alignment.
Thanks, but, I will pass. I have worked from 4pm to 2am for the past 7 days on mine (not including a 45 hour work week.) I will help you out a bit. The center pillar will also need redone. I cut mind in half and filled it with abs plastic then re-drilled through the center, I ran my wiring through this. It was near impossible to feed the wiring through the side mounts after molding it in. If you don't want to run the 3rd brake light you can get a carbon fiber top half without it. But be warned the existing 3rd brake light will be perfectly blocked when the spoiler is on. I found it a requirement to run the center part. Mine is still removable but, when removed the spoiler wobbles and stresses when driving and extremely when moving the decklid. LMK if you need anymore pictures of the process I used. |

@Kiske That's awesome that you were able to replicate that setup so well. Color me VERY VERY impressed.

Well apparently mother nature (that bitch) won't let me have good weather too keep my work. Shitty pictures until spring will have to do. (sry)

For all of you who were wondering where the $300 E-Bay wing went, here it is.

Looks good!

I'm going to have to put the center support in, it flexes quite a bit with out it. On the GTR it will create about 1 lb of down force for every 1 mph. Not a lot, 100 lbs at 100 mph. The local Nisson dealer just down the road just happens to have a GTR on the floor so I'm going to take my digital level down and measure the angle, then tweak mine so my angle is greater, to give me more down force.
It's just on temp, with two bolts. It needs to taken apart and spacers made to increase the angle, painted, and the holes from the old spoiler plugged, all stuff for my paint guy. |
Were you able to extend the wiring and run it down the side of the spoiler or did you just decided to exclude the brake light? You may want to try and make it functional. It is soooooo F'ing bright! I love it and easily lightup everything behind me!
Yeah whole thing shakes like mad when you open/close it. I really wish I made the front edge a bit lower. I went level with the decklid. FYI MUST DOOOOOO If your going to run the center support then have your body guy also tack in a brace on the inside of the decklid. Otherwise the leading edge (just above the toyo/scion/subaru emblem) will CRACK the paint. I had it happen twice when some kid leaned on the spoiler and another time after a track session. I love telling my buddies the wing on my little slow scoobaru has that much power at speed to crack it! :rolleyes: Just have them tack a small piece of plate 3inches long right where the middle spoiler hole is and you will be good. |

I'm curious to inquire with my local Nissan dlr how much this wing would cost. Does anyone have a part number I could take to them?
