Wow, I think a lot here prefer the smaller 06 spoiler or no spoiler at all.

I have the 05 spoiler and can't wait to dump it.

I actually prefer the 05 spoiler over the 06, although I have a strafe trunk now.

I think I remember reading that they both use different holes....

Just put a want to trade thread in the marketplace. And I agree, the 03-05 surfboard is the best spoiler for our cars IMO. Makes the rear look mean.

I've been thinking of swapping my 06 spoiler for an older style one too. Anyone have pics comparing the two? How many different style wings does the G35 have available? I like mine with the brake light.

No spoiler > Spoiler.

I don't really like the giant surfboard spoiler the 1st gens came with...

The 1.5 is much cleaner IMO.

You more than likely wouldn't see it, but I'd HIGHLY advise painting the holes you drill to prevent any rust from setting it.

Rust under a spoiler is something you won't notice until it's far, far too late to repair.

I'll be selling my surfboard next month. The two stock spoilers use different mounting points.

These cars look 100% better with no spoiler. My mom bought herself a G coupe before I decided to buy mine. When she first got it, I really liked the way it looked with the surfboard strapped to the trunk.

Then when I got my OB G, with no spoiler, I decided that was definitely the way to go.
