Spoiler Install
#17
You can pick up the rear shelf without the third brake light from g35parts.com for $167. Here's the site http://www.g35parts.com/9083/osc/pro...0425750311b9df
However, if your window is tinted dark enough in back, there's really no need to remove it since it can't be seen from the outside. I left mine in and simply disconnected the third brake light for the window after installing the OEM spoiler. The connector for the third brake light in the window is a brown connector located towards the middle portion of the trunk where the trunk lid meets the body. Simply remove three of the molding clips from the top of the trunk. You'll see a wire with a brown connector running up towards the brake light through a round opening with foam. A good way to make sure you're disconnecting the correct wire is to have someone step on your brake while disconnecting the wire to make sure you got the right one.

no paint issues with mine. I got a chance to compare this spoiler side by side with the OEM spoiler - I like this one better. It is more pronounced than the OEM. my opinion only of course. I switched to the spoiler brake light also. I see that there is a rear deck available that doesn't have the brake light, but it is something like $500.

yeah that is what I did. My back tint is pretty dark so you really don't see the brake light anyway. The other downside to swapping in the rear deck w/o brake light is my tint is cut around the brake light, so then I would have to get that redone as well. too much trouble. Would rather spend that money on some HP :-)

Well when you buy the kit, It comes with all the instructions and templates and what tools and bits to get, If you've never drilled a hole or screwed into a wall then let the dealership handle it for you, saves you the trouble and risk of making the wrong hole, Please make sure you buy OEM, not the knock-offs they have on ebay.
