INSTALLATION AND FITMENT EXPECTATIONS

This is a high-quality aftermarket FRP spoiler. For a professional finish, the following workflow is required:

• Pre-fitting: Always test-fit the part to the boot lid "dry" before any modification, sanding, or painting.
• Professional Adjustment: Minor sanding, trimming, or drilling may be required to achieve your desired alignment. This is standard for custom composite aero parts.
• Preparation: Requires professional sanding and priming before painting to match your vehicle paint code.
• Expert Fitment: We strongly recommend installation by a qualified body shop experienced in FRP products to ensure a professional finish.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is this a direct fit for the 260Z 2+2?
While the hatch profiles are similar, we recommend a dry pre-fit to ensure the alignment meets your project's specific requirements. Most S30 chassis spoilers are highly versatile across the 240Z/260Z range.

What is the difference between Hand Laid and Chopper Gun?
Chopper guns spray random glass strands, leading to brittle sections. Our Hand Laid process manually layers glass mats, ensuring a better resin-to-glass ratio and higher impact resistance.

Does it come painted?
No. It arrives in a raw gel-coat finish. It requires standard preparation, priming, and painting by a professional to match your vehicle perfectly.
