I prefer the whale tale. But I like both black and white on a Z... I think I'd lean more towards a darker color though.

anything but a whale tail would just be wrong....
thats one of them thing i just cant stand, when i see a nice car with a spoiler that looks like it doesnt belong... yesterday i seen where a kid took a lancer and put this HUGE single strut spoiler that looked like a park bench mounted on the back of it.... i actually asked him why put a spoiler that creates so much down force on a front wheel drive car... and get this.... we ended up in a fist fight because he was sooooo offended over me askin.... god i hate ricers....

But you beat him down, right? :rofl:

If it were me, I'd snag the whale tail and spray some kind of crisp, pearlescent white. Something like what's on the G35 2-doors - now that's a hot color.

Or flat black. That's hot too.

a whale tail.. not just because i have one but nissan designed the 280ZX-R wing which is a whale tail and its a fullyfunctional tail..as far as your color goes... i you got a lot of dents then go with the white.. white hides dents the best but black shows the body lines the best

Don't paint your car white, Skully! You'll lose it in the snow!

The F40 wing doesn't look too bad actually. Here's some pics of it on my car before I changed it all up. http://www.phatkokracing.com/gallery...umName=Mach5ZX
