Need Help Choosing Spoiler!

Hello everyone!
I'm pretty new to this site, but I've been lurking for a while, trying to get ideas for my 2011 G37 Sedan. Inspired by a lot of the things I've seen on here, I started looking around for some exterior things for my car. Since I'm a student and all of this comes out of my pocket, not many options I can go for. I really really loved the Zele GT Rear Wing ( GT Rear Wing | Zele Performance Parts - INFINITI G37 | Zele Performance Global Website ), but I don't exactly have 1k to drop. :/ I've been looking around for things that look similar to it, and I chanced upon the Pure - Custom Style Rear Spoiler ( PUREŽ - Infiniti G37 2008-2013 Custom Style Rear Spoiler ). I couldn't find any other pictures besides for the one featured and I was wondering if you know anybody on the site with it or that has pictures of it so I can see what its like. Also, if you know anything like it, please don't be afraid to suggest. Thank you!

tl;dr Seen spoiler? Share pics.

These on a sedan? No bueno. I don't think it'll look right.

I agree. If you do decide to get a spoiler it needs to be way more subtle.
This one is cool. https://www.myg37.com/forums/g37-sed...k-spoiler.html

IMO those wings look out of place on our Gs, even more so on a G without plenty of other body mods. I much prefer in this order~OEM trunk spoiler (replaces the chrome lip), Tommy Kaira (replaces the chrome lip), Stillen (retains the chrome lip), the one on SoundMikes' G (retains chrome lip), then the above pictured spoiler^

I'm going to agree with Newt here, that those spoilers would look out of place unless there were some kind of radical body kit on the car, at which point the entire car would look odd, but at least there'd be continuity.

There have been a number of threads recently about people painting their chrome trunk lip body-color. It could be a tasteful little mod, and far less costly.

Here's another perspective: out of a pack of cars all traveling over the highway speed limit, which car do you think cops would notice and recognize first... the OEM looking Camry and 4-door Accord, or the G-Sedan with the large wing spoiler on the trunk? Sometimes it's best not to advertise, and instead mod your car in ways *you* notice, but the general public doesn't.

Alright, thanks for the help guys. I just wish there were a couple of other pictures to use to cross reference. Having to do everything through Google is so indirect and time consuming.

Also, just wondering, has anyone done any headlight mods that live in LA, CA?

Look up Raul G Customs, he's THE MAN when it comes to headlight painting and custom headlight mods.
