A PAIN...but well worth it, my new spoiler!

A great resource for Nissan Sentra, Infiniti G20, 200sx, Pulsar, NX1600, NX2000, Tsuru, Primera and Sunny owners.

Since I want to be the first to do tons of things, I didn't think anyone had a regular Sentra with a Spec-V spoiler. I do now! I had to measure so much since it didn't have a template (Nissan body part, not Nissan accessory like the regular Sentra spoiler) and I had to guess on a few things. It turned out nicely!

Here's the car right after I put on the spoiler, still sitting in my stall:

Here's the car after I washed it...gotta keep it clean!

Congratulations on the new trunk lid handles. That was one of the major reason for me getting the SE R. When I test drove the regular Sentra I kept wondering where to hold onto the lid when I want to close the trunk. The spoiler makes that choice obvious.

How could you tell?

I wanted the Spec, but at $50 extra a month for a BASE one (no LSD, no audio, etc) I said, um, no. Plus, I hate silver and it was the only Spec around. Actually, I kinda wish I had said yes, because I don't want a factory radio anymore and LSD is overrated unless you're racing.

I plan on doing the Stillen front lip and stopping with the body after that.

is that the stillen spoiler or did you order from nissan? stillen has come out with a decent body kit for the 2.0's, can't wait for them to come out with some performance mods for the spec v's.

The OEM "body kits" would be as far as I'd go, that just my personal feelings towards large wings at the back on a FWD car.

i agree with you about the large wings on the back, but i would extend that to any car not just fwd. anyways you should check out the stillen kit, the spoiler is almost identical to the se-r one, not that you would need it but i'm sure they will be coming out with stuff for the se-r's and spec v's soon as well.

nissantech: you planning on doing any performance mods? stillen already has the exhaust out for the 2.0 and springs. the springs make your car look sick.

Well, the Stillen wing looks JUST like the 2.0S optional spoiler...I MIGHT add the Stillen chin spoiler and leave the outside. I don't want the springs because Nismo will have a full suspension kit that can bolt up to the 2.0 like the Spec V (the '00-'06 kit was interchangeable between models) and IF Stillen's exhaust is the ONLY one available as of March, yes.

Yeah, tell me how much you want for it and I'd be happy to buy it. I use Paypal, so it might be the easiest way.

I have one question, what's the difference between the regular grille and the Spec-V? Does it say SE-R in the grille? Can you put a pic up here of it?

SE R grill is like honey comb vs the blocks you get in the 2.0 trims. Looks a bit more sporty?
