I think you need to add one more option to your poll:

3. Aftermarket spoilers

IMO, the OEM spoiler is ugly, too big and lays like a dead cat on the trunk (please no flaming, just my personal opinion).
Now, go take a look at the Gialla spoiler for example, and now we're talking...

Did you get yours at Discover Infiniti in San Diego? How was their purchasing experience and could you get $$$ off MSRP. I was thinking maybe Grubbs is the way to go.

Re: Just Picked Up My New G35 6mt

I tend to agree....the OEM spoiler is just too big and obtrusive for my taste. I'd like the smooth line on the car not to be disturbed so much by the spoiler. The Gialla one I think is subtle and looks pretty nice....not sure about if it really is doing much good from a performance perspective though for those that would track with it.

I'm going to wait on that one. I'm probably going to do the front lip and will have the splash guards on, but the spoilers so far I'm unsure of. I'm sure given time more options will come out to please more of us.

I like it from the rear angle only. From the side and front 45 degree angle it doesn't sit well for me. I am saving for the Gialla

hoshtaylor, nice spoiler... that's what I'm talking about. Something with low profile and slick - that spoiler matches the lines of the coupe.
BTW, how much did you pay for the spoiler?
Your front Nismo bumper is not too shabby either [img]/w3timages/icons/cool.gif[/img]

Re: Just Picked Up My New G35 6mt

congrats on your purchase. i myself hate the factory oem too(IMHO). i do have the gailla rear spoiler. It looks really nice and not too showy like the f40 spoiler..hehehhe...

check my ride section to see my spoiler. As of now, i only know 3 people that have that spoiler(myself included).

Speedoholic and in my opinion Gialla spoiler is ugly and the oem spoiler looks 1000x better than that Gialla spoiler (personal opinion)

And it's all nice and good. Each and everyone of us has the right to have is own opinion on that thing or another and there is nothing wrong with that.
Besides, a matter of taste is nothing more than a matter of taste...[img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Just Picked Up My New G35 6mt

Hey thanks for all the advice, i think i am going to let the current looks stew for a month and then with my next paycheck consider some spoiler options. In the meantime I brought the car up to the dealer for them to finish up some stuff on the due bill, and I have a G35 sedan loaner. I must say that the 5AT is a lot more fun and efficient than I would have anticipated. Especially third gear, has a good kick to it. I would have had to consider a Coupe AT if it were to be a daily driver hhahaha Only negative on the sedan/tranny is the mpg are even worse than expected compared to our coupes. Thanks again guys!
