Perhaps. But for OEM rear spoilers, it could be worse. Lots worse.

Always liked that one. The way it embeds the chrome lip is very clean.

That Pontiac spoiler cannot be OEM....it looks like something from a Cub Scout Soap Box derby project that went overboard.

Here's the Stillen Spoiler that fits over the chrome piece: http://www.stillen.com/product/rear-...thane-959.html

I found it by entering a 2010 G37S, but if I'm not mistaken, it looks like the photo shows the trunk of a 07-08 G35 (makes sense as the trunks are identical to the 09+). The part about not working with the backup camera seems odd since it fits over the piece that houses the camera.

I agree that this one tends to compliment the lines of the car better than most of the others I have seen.

Sorry for the OT example, but sadly yes, that was the OEM rear spoiler on the Pontiac G6 GXP Coupe. One of the worse looking cars to ever come out of Pontiac... Aztek included.

Google it, but have a barf bag handy.

So I have an 09 g37x with the chrome spoiler and I don't have navi either, am I able to install the sport spoiler that comes with the 3rd break light? I'm just trying to figure out how I can change it.

Which spoiler has the 3rd brake light? I thought the OEM spoiler was brake light free? Confused.

The Stillen Version 2 spoiler looks REALLY good. If I can't source out the OEM spoiler anymore that's going to be my second choice!

The OEM sport spoiler of the 2nd Gen 2007-2008 G35S sedans and 2009 G37S sedan. The spoiler on these cars came with a built in 3rd brake light.

here is a picture

But the OEM spoiler normally ships color matched to your car right? I can't imagine you can get the Stillen spoiler painted for less than $200.

Depends on the paint. For example, Moonlight White can double the cost of the paint mixed for the project because of multiple layers, as well as add additional labor hours. Over the length of the painting project, an estimated 2 hour job could turn into a 4 hour job. On top of that, it's almost random whether or not it will match.

For something as small and simple as a (loose) spoiler, probably $100+ for black, but $200 give or take for MW.

nope the OEM spoiler for G37 sedans comes without a brake light, and you can get it factory painted for 280$ which I just pulled the trigger on and ordered it online at infinitipartsusa can't wait to get it and install it

Wasn't it $281.25?
Where are there good multi angle pictures of this Rear Deck Spoiler? The one on the infinitiparts site is poor.
