Hi there,

I was going to take some shots but the weather did not let me so I will try tomorrow after work and will defo post some

How does your car look like ?

Regards,

Mat.

Hi Matrez,
It's a pre LCI Titan Silver 320d SE, with Blacklines, black dakota leather, and smoked side repeaters. Main differences visually are the wheels and exhaust as mine are still standard.
Hope to change the exhaust soon and also go for rear tints to look like OEM privacy glass. Just can't make up my mind about the spoiler yet.
Cheers,
Craig.

Hi Craig,

Ohhh so our cars are excatly the same outside

I do not have leather inside but I am happy with my seats haha

The spoiler I have purchased is in Black Sapphire colour so thats maybe not your taste of vision, but I like it as it matches all the black parts ie. repeaters etc so maybe you could think about it too. Once I upload photos everything will be clear to you

Regards,

Mat.

Hey Craig,

Just came back from work and took a few quick photos of the spoiler

Sorry, the car is a bit dirty and my phone's camera a bit crappy

Here you are :

The photos do not do the justice at all, in reality it looks stunning !!!

The spoiler is of a fantastic quality, didnt expect that to be honest - the same as OEM one I must say for a friction of the price !!!

Regards,

Mat.

pumaboy2000 · 05-03-2012, 03:09 PM

Thanks Mat, you're spot on, really does look great! Reckon I'll take the plunge! Can you remember which seller it was on eBay as I noticed there are a few different ones?
Cheers,
Craig

Make you Black Line BMW look as it should, yeah

Here you are :
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PAINTED-BM...item3a73e57e4a

If you buy it today you should get it in 10 days or so. Delivery is by FedEx and takes around 5 days to come.

Enjoy

Mat.

Might have to go on hold just now, been quoted an additional £119 on my insurance premium if I add this spoiler!!! I'm not tight, but that seems a bit extreme to say the least. Would really grudge paying that much, that's a quarter of the price of my policy!

Seems like there is no point at all, you are completly right.

Sounds dodge. Which seller did you get yours from?

Triggster · 05-07-2012, 10:58 AM

Did you use the bonding agent? Mine wont budge at all now.

bazz780 · 05-07-2012, 11:41 AM

Hi mate, used alcohol wipe supplied in the kit but i put it down to the cold weather stopping the adhesive from working properly

Triggster · 05-07-2012, 11:49 AM

:S

Maybe look about some 3M tape off ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3M-300cm-6...ht_3833wt_1396

bazz780 · 05-07-2012, 12:27 PM

Just used more bonding agent supplied and as sun w...as shining directly on the boot lid, stuck it back on and seems to have done the trick, had it sligtly mis aligned and wouldnt come off lol so must be job done!

Looks decent for the $$$... Pic to follow

Mat! did u have to email them with the Black Sapphire request?? As i dont see it on their list of colours? mines a Black Sapphire

am i right in saying its paintcode 457??

Soootylad · 05-07-2012, 02:54 PM

Black Sapphire is 475 matey

bazz780 · 05-15-2012, 01:00 PM

Update on this purchasei have just received a 15 quid taxes bill! Was not expecting this and not happy but now must pay it!

In the lising states 'can reduce value and mark as gift' now i learn from the leaflet enclosed that this would help avoud the charge but how was i supposed to know until its too late

Hey yes you need to inform them after purchase you want Black Sapphire Metallic (code - 475). My car is Silver hehe

Here you are taken yesturday after a wash :

Hope you like it

Yes thats right I also received a few days ago the 'Duty and Taxes' invoice of around £15, but it was stated in the seller's discription (with no price). Still not bad for the price

I emailed him about that and he cant give the refund or anything so left positive feedback as I always do for everyone lol

It comes with a couple of lines of (3M?) adhesive tape already attached. There is also an alcohol wipe to clean the surface and an adhesive booster to wipe on also - I didnt bother with the booster, the tape was sticky enough.

Doh!

It took 3 weeks.

As it was the first page i was trying to tip you guys off you would be hit with custom charges so the DOH was a bit uncalled for.

The spoilers do look good and compared to bmw prices even with customs charge are still good value for money.

Triggster · 05-16-2012, 05:52 PM

I havent been asked for any custom charges yet... although I asked him to mark as a gift.

bigbeemer · 05-20-2012, 01:08 PM

Anybody bought an alpine white one as it states they cant match 100% the colour?
