Okay, I will admit my full fault in this premature fitment and picture. I just simply placed it on the trunk itself just to see how it would look and what the results may look like. Tonight, Ill have a buddy of mine with me who will press and keep pressure on the spoiler itself to see how it actually sits without 3m'ing it. The picture was just a "Hey i got it updated". The Gap is just it being on the trunk. I do apologize guys

@jake85 if this is the same one, did you take off your chrome spoiler? or make any other adjustments besides making the cutouts bigger.


Again I'm doing this as a trail run for forum members. I personally will still get a bella trunk after winter.
The chrome spoiler was removed and the wing was heated to get it to wrap the edge of the trunk as closely as possible.

I thought so. It seemed very weird to me that the depth it has on the inside of the spoiler would be enough to cover the spoiler and be flush. I'm gonna look into removing my spoiler and providing better pictures to show you guys how it actually fits.

The before pictures is just me laying it on top of the OEM spoiler and pressed it a bit to see how it would look.

^^^What wheel/tire specs are you running? That wheel design goes well on your sedan, might consider spacers to flush them up a bit.

19" coupe wheels on 2009 G37x

Hey guys I need help asap, I will be buying some 19" coupe wheels tomorrow for my g37x, I think they are both 19x9. I Don't want to mess with the AWD obviously so what tires should I run ??? 245/40/19 all around ? The wheels I am about to buy are running 225/45/19(Front) and 255/40/19(Rear). In other words I will be selling those tires to get all the same tires. Spacers and coils soon to come as well.
All help appreciated, thank you !

Have to check the back stamping on the wheels to check the width, even if one pair is 8.5 and the other 9" wide, no biggie, you can run 245/40/19 all around, just be sure to put the wider wheels in back.

Thanks! They are ​Concept One CSLs in 19x9+15 and 19x10.5+45. The fronts are pretty much flush as is, I think I could probably get a 3-5mm or so on the back though if I'm lucky.

An exhaust is next on the list!

Curious as to how this will turn out, about to pull the trigger on this spoiler as well.

Most G37's Journey sedans I see on the road are driven by an older age group who do not care about the performance aspect of the car. You can still enjoy the performance aspect of the car and have heavy wheels. It's obvious he enjoys the look..
