It's certainly the most functional.

Correct me if I'm wrong [for I don't own a Z, though I am going to save for one] but the 280ZXR came with a stock spoiler similar to this one. It is suggested that you have a front air dam to compensate for the downforce though.

Not bad for a n00b huh? One whole day of research pays off

no correction needed...zxr's just came witha split in the middle and you would want front airdam to keep the front down ...

Nice ride Isaac, I gotta save up to buy a 280... I've always loved the way they look and from the couple that I've seen, you can get a good amount of power under the hood! Hopefully next year...
