This Z has been for sale since last year on eBay, it's worth a whole thread by itself..

Some things done so well (full respray, bucket seats) and other choices just strange and look out of place totally (see rear spoiler)..

Anyhow one of the things I like is the splitter/chin spoiler.
At first I thought it was just some of the universal type rubber that you buy in rolls on eBay but on zooming in the pics it looks like model specific item.
I've not seen such a spoiler before, anyone else maybe seen one or know it?

I saw something very much like that last year on eBay.com Dino, snag was it was a one piece item so I couldn't get one home. Wasn't cheap either if I remember right.

The car looks as if it's sitting high at the front!

Is it not the Rieger spoiler that g8jka has fitted?
Thought so too, from a distance it looks like it but definitely not the Reiger.

Reiger sits more flush and had an indent in the middle giving it that M look. This one doesn't and accentuates the 'point' of the bumper.

I seem to remember reading something about that car. I think it is a 3.0 front with a splitter from a totally different manufacturer . ie Home made but looks good.

I messaged the seller of the grey Z to ask about the spoiler but never heard back. Also suggested he come on here and post about the car...

Anyhow I've found a great cost effective, durable and black rubber customizable lip.

As fitted to my car, I'll get better pics at the weekend.

I went for this over the cheaper foam lips as this is rubber and is certainly tough and had a smart matte finish.
Very easy to work with but if I do it again I'll just whip the bumper cover off for ease of working.

A little tip: I used some velcro self adhesive tape to position the lip and hold it in place and move it about until happy before drilling the screws in to secure it to the bumper (screws and plates supplied).
