Then: 03 Coupe no spoiler. Now 08 G37 no spoiler. Cleaner lines, just fine without!

Fund the 401k instead!

You'll thank me in 30 years

BTW, although I wasn't around during the great depression of the 1930's, those that had money and made investments during that stock market crash became very wealthy by the time WWll ended.

I have a Coupe and don't want my spoiler.

I'd swap the decklid in a heartbeat for a non-spoiler model.

I feel the opposite. No spoiler on the coupe. Spoiler on the sedan. It evens out the look for both.

Spoiler makes it more sporty else the rear looks nekkid, IMO.

Hello,

Well...I asked because I recently (just last weekend) purchased a silver 2005 Infiniti G35 Coupe with spoiler from a local Infiniti dealership. I asked if they would be willing to remove the spoiler and they offered to trade my trunk with spoiler for one without a spoiler when the same paint color came in...any thoughts?

For some reason the 05' spoiler looks huge to me and kind of old school. I thought about possibly trading for the plain trunk the Infiniti dealership is offering and then installing an 06' OEM spoiler, any thoughts? Also, the G37 doesn't seem to have much of a spoiler...hmmm.

The Infiniti dealership went on and on about how a G35 is much more wanted when it has the spoiler and how the Infiniti dealership was more than willing to trade my trunk with the spoiler for a plain trunk without spoiler when the same color car comes in...this really made me think maybe I should not trade out my spoiler...any thoughts???

Thank you so much!

I'll take your s/c coupe... we can trade... that is if you don't have a problem with a pinstripe...

Personally, I like the OEM spoiler on the G35...I wish they didn't change it in 06.

I agree. I like the older style spoiler better than the newer. 03-05 look hawt with the spoiler.

Also, the lip spoilers are perfect.

I have always hated spoilers...I especially hate that thing they call a spoiler on the Subarus.

But hey, I wouldn't want someone to get something they really wanted just based off my opinion...to each their own!

Personally, I like the clean, un-spoiled look of the Coupe.

But, considering the Coupes' poor reward visibility, a spoiler is a useful visual clue for seeing where the aft-end of the car is when backing up.

I think all '03-'07 VQ35DE G35 models need a spoiler. They look naked without them.

The sedans look so much sportier with them. The coupes look hot with them.

All 2007-Present G35/G37 models with VQ35HR/VQ37VHR look just fine without them.

Inside the door jamb.

Actually, no need to even look. If your car is metallic grey, not silver, it's Diamond Graphite. There's not a lot of colors that look like it.
