Another thumbs up for SSDD. Good quality, faster delivery and an excellent colour match.

Can I jump in and ask something....

I want a matched spoiler too. I little more substantive than the one above. How are they mounted? Screws or 3m tape? Is tape really that secure?

[dmt335d]

Mine was mounted with tape that is more than adequate for this type of spoiler. My e46 330d sport with the factory fitted boot lid spoiler was also only mounted with tape.

[HeavyRightFoot]

I got mine from SSDD, sapphire black was spot on.

Used the tape provided and never had any issues, been on for months through long journeies, bad weather and numerous washing using a pressure washer.

Gone up by £10 but still an utter bargain

Instead, get it from the US auction for bmwchop168 and select the UK as your delivery destination.

$69 = £43

I got one and it was spot on colour match. However, the 3M sticky stuff used is pants, mine started coming off on one side.

I did have to pay £6 in duties and £10 in fedex admin charge.....bastards. Still, was £60 all in.

[Subzero2003]

ha, yeh. Fedex have sent me a couple of letters asking for £4 import fee plus their £10 "admin fee".

They can get bent. I'd have paid the £4 but I'm getting sick of these moronic "admin fees" on top of everything.

[mistryn]

If I was you i would send them a letter and in the letter state that you are paying the £4 import fee but in order for you to draft this letter, write out the cheque, put it in an envelope/stamp and send, your admin fee is exactly £10. See what happens then

[rsmallwo]

I tried to give fedex the run around on the admin fee stating i never gabe them consent to process it. under uk law if i dont consent to a service then i dont enter into a contract and so am not liable. they kept saying that consent is implied when acceptimg parcel etc. bit of back n forth and eventually i just paid the tenner to get them off my back. i was still quids in on the whole deal even with the tenner admin fee.

Btw dhl only charge £1.25 for anything of value upto £60 and then after its a 2% fee. personal customers not business mind.

So there is an import duty to add to the cost of the eBay Taiwanese spoilers?

I ended up getting mine from the German one by accident, £54.00 delivered and fits fine, no charges and took about 3 days!

Look at this on eBay:

BMW 3er E92 COUPE 2006 - 11 TRUNK LIP SPOILER –Painted-

I may be biased but get the Performance Spoiler. I have it on mine and it think it looks good.

The dealer was initially going "Oh I think it looks too big" but he soon warmed to it once it was fitted.
