The Story:
The local company who makes many of our fiberglass items originally made the 70-78 Victory™ Spoiler as a limited factory option spoiler back in the 70's directly for Nissan. The SCCA's rules for many racing classes are similar to this: "Aftermarket aerodynamic devices are prohibited with the exception of front air dams/spoilers and rear spoiler, unless a factory option". So to help out the racers of the day to get more downforce, Nissan had a small amount of 240Z spoilers made to give racers even more of an edge. The S30 version was listed as Nissan a factory option, so it fit into the rules of the day. Our manufacturer re-molded the spoiler to properly fit on 79-83 280ZX Coupes, and we've added Matte Finished Carbon Fiber as an additional option to fiberglass and Gloss Carbon Fiber.

Description:
Both the original MSA 280ZX Victory™ Spoiler and its Gloss Carbon Fiber counterpart have been incredibly popular ever since we first started making them a few years ago. After we recently launched the Motorsport Auto Matte Carbon Fiber line for the earlier model spoilers, we started receiving a number of requests for this spoiler in the same finish. We are still working hand in hand with our manufacturer to finish the first round of production, and hope to have this awesome spoiler available in Matte Finish Carbon Fiber soon.
Starting with our most popular deck lid spoilers, the Motorsport Auto Matte Carbon Fiber line offers more subtle, muted tones (see comparison below). We've already heard from many who like it even more than traditional gloss Carbon Fiber. The matte finish has an appearance that pairs particularly well with increasingly popular flat, matte, and satin surface finishes, from paint and wraps to wheels and more. It also contrasts with high gloss finishes for a more unique appearance. Like the gloss finished Carbon Fiber, the pictures don't properly show just how good these parts look; they really must been seen in person to truly appreciate them! (Note: Carbon Fiber spoilers look best when viewed in person installed on YOUR early ZX!)
The 280ZX Victory™ Spoiler follows in the footsteps of its S30 predecessor, which traces its origin along Nissan's history of automotive racing. By popular request, we worked hand in hand with our manufacturer, and this properly adapted spoiler was born. It has been redesigned from the ground (or base) up in order to accurately fit the rear deck of 280ZX Coupes. During the process, we found that there was room to increase the height specifically for the 280ZX due to the difference in body design, leading to a spoiler that towers in at 5 5/8" when measured from the back (the S30 version measures in at 5 3/8"). This version of the 280ZX Victory™ Spoiler is made of high quality Carbon Fiber with matte finish (see Related Items for the gloss finished carbon fiber and Fiberglass versions), and comes ready to install. Unlike our S30 and other 280ZX options, this Victory™ Spoiler installs using 2 bolts on each side (4 in total); a side effect of the taller spoiler height.
Image Note:
Installed image on this page shows the fiberglass version of this spoiler (50-1577 in Related Items). Remaining images show the Gloss Finished version (50-1578 in Related Items). The only difference between this spoiler and the gloss version in the images is the finish; see comparison images below. Images of this Matte Finished version coming soon.
Matte Carbon Fiber Comparison:
While traditional Carbon Fiber will always remain popular, Matte Carbon Fiber is a rapidly growing style option in the automotive industry. The images below (S30 BRE Style Spoiler) will give you a much better idea of what the Matte Carbon Fiber looks like in comparison to the Gloss Carbon Fiber. We took images with lighting reflections on purpose so you can see how the Matte Carbon Fiber diffuses the light. They look awesome!
Safety Note:
ALL rear spoilers will increase downforce on the rear of the car, regardless of design. How noticeable that increased downforce is depends on both spoiler design and how the car is being driven. For standard city street driving, the increased downforce from most spoilers typically doesn't have a significant impact on handling. At highway speeds or on canyon runs, it will be more apparent, and a front spoiler is recommended, but spoiler design ultimately determines whether it is required. On the track (or otherwise at racing speeds), a properly matched front spoiler or air dam is always strongly recommended, and should be considered as mandatory (note this is especially true for taller spoilers, such as the MSA Victory™ Spoiler). Please call if you have any questions.
Fitment Note:
This spoiler is specifically designed to fit on coupe model deck lids. While it can physically be installed on 2+2 models, it does not align correctly with 2+2 deck lids and body line, and will leave gaps at the ends. 2+2 deck lids are also angled differently, so the spoiler will not have the exact same appearance as when it is installed on a coupe model.
