I don't personally, however, I sent emails to some of his customers that did NOT like it (bad feedback) and they said it was a cheap, lightweight, version of the OEM one. The ones that are in the $250 range are a lot better.

I had the dealer install an OEM replica, they install this on a lot of their cars, it's nice, and cost a lot less than the factory spoiler, and looks just as good, I've noticed most of the G35's I see around here with a spoiler, have this one.
I put one of his spoilers on my IP G. It is light weight, but I've never held a factory one off the car so I have nothing to compare it to. The paint matches but it does not come with a templat, just a set of location strips. Kinda a pain, take your time and it comes out fine.

just be careful of some aftermarket spoilers will have blemishes especially in the long run compared to a OEM spoiler. sometimes you'll be lucky but it's just the risk you take to save a couple of dollars
I purchased the factory spoiler and factory lip I paid a nice chunk of change even with a 10% discount but I got peace of mind after having some bad experiences with aftermarket spoilers and shops with previous cars.
Why do I bother to DIY???

Back in 03 I ordered an aftermarket spoiler from an online company - one of the first to make aftermarket spoilers for the G35 - and when i got it, the paint was okay, but the dang thing was twisted so one side wouldn't even touch the trunk lid. I think the side was at least 1" higher due to the twist.
Anyway, they picked it up and sent another free of charge of course. I'm fairly happy with it, although the paint is no where near OEm qualityy. But the one major complaint is that the LED light is no where near as nice/bright as the OEM one. Although I don't know if they've gotten better over the past three years, I'd recommend going OEM. Maybe you can find someone willing to do a trunk lid swap...I'm sure there are some here who would prefer to have a non-spoiler trunk (I actually wouldn't mind).
