I am not sure how the fitment is on those specific spoilers. But, my friend bought a cheap spoiler for his 350Z (a Nismo knockoff) and it looked like ****. The fitment was horrible. My advice would be to be patient...hope this helps.

I know DEMONBIRD bought an SS spoiler off of eBay, but not that particular one. I believe SpoilerDepot was the seller. He has nothing but good things to say about it, and he's had it for a while.

I would NOT buy that one only because it doesn't come with the LED and they are EXPENSIVE ($200 from some places ) and hard to find... Other than that it looks identical to the one I bought...

I got the one from spoiler depot painted and it the paint matches perfectly and no fitment problems, the screws were alittle short but everything else was perfect.
