Anyone Recommend this G37s spoiler replica?

I cant really dish out 400-500 bucks for the OEM one but i dont see nothing wrong with this one, Sorry i didnt even buy my G with it, I love how it looks on other G's.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...3AIT&viewitem=

Would you recommend it? Anything i should be aware of except that its not OEM lol

I bet you anything that the color match is going to be 100% off and it might start having peeling/fitment issues.

replicas usually don't do well... you could afford the car, why can't you afford the OEM spoiler?

i bought a replica honda accord lip spoiler off ebay over a year ago, and installed it on his car for him.... It looks like factory, paint match was perfect, and i think it was ~130 bucks, which was a little more than what i was quoted just to prep, paint, install a unpainted rear spoiler. It's been over a year and it still looks nice, and hasn't flown off...

I got a replica for my 350z about 6mo ago and the paint match was perfect.

You will prolly be alright. And for a 170$ even if you have to spend another 100$ and get it painted your still only in for 270ish so ur still way ahead of the curve

It's kinda hard to imagine the color match being a 100% off. That means if your car is white, they would have to send you a black spoiler. LOL

But yeah, in the past I've noticed after market spoiler droops in the middle or well there is no vertical support.
