Yeah, I'm not sure who's car it is, but I love that car!! And like Mishmosh and Kool said, it is the Impul spoiler.. I've been debating on whether or not to cough up the $700 and order that one from JapanParts, or just go with the Stillen spoiler and have my chrome trunk finisher painted I/P to match... I'm almost thinking that the Impul spoiler is a little too big... What does everyone else think?

Personally, I don't dig the stillen spoiler. Impul or TK.

Yeah, I really like the TommyKaira too... It's a little less aggresive than the Impul, which I like, but it is even pricier than the Impul.

But a couple of the guys on here have posted pics of their cars with the Stillen and the more I see it, the more I like it. It looks very similar to an M3 or AMG style lip.

Stillen spoiler looks nice, but installing it on top of the chrome finisher ruined that look. I like something that is not too big. The Lexus IS trunk spoiler is the look that I am looking for.

there's always the option of painting the chrome piece to match your body paint...or you can do what adrian is thinking about doing, taking the stillen spoiler to a reputable shop where they can combine the chrome piece and the stillen into one piece...i think all they would need is some bondo to get rid of the line between the stillen spoiler and the chrome trim on the trunk...plus the stillen is the smallest out of all the spoilers with no weird angles...in my opinions spoilers don't really look good on this car, but wings do...especially ones that curve to the rear bumper

Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. I plan to either paint the chrome lip to match or have the body shop integrate the spoiler and lip, so they are actually one piece. Then again, I may just bite the bullet and get the IMPUL spoiler... We'll see...

Unfortuantely IMO the OEM G37 spoiler really kills the lines of the G sedan. It is a little too aggressive where it lifts at the ends. If it was just a smooth lip all the way accross like the G37 Coupe's (and like the IS lip that Tex is talking about), then I think it would be perfect.

Hey, get it and then find someone to replicate it and split the cost. I want it too.

Not a bad idea. I know Eric is talking about duplicating the Tommykaira spoiler, but is having trouble getting one to replicate. Maybe I can talk him into doing the Impul instead, if I can get one. Hmmm... so many ideas, so little cash. LOL

Yeah, I know he wants to replicate the TK kit, but he hasn't had any luck getting the kit here from Japan, so I think that project is dead until he can get an actual kit to mold off of. Not sure about the sport lip, though.
