I received the spoiler. It is actually better quality than I expected. Carbon fiber patterning was good as well as clear coat. It was boxed and wrapped very well. Only one small bad spot in the finish along the edge that touches the trunk on the front side(towards the front of car). Not real noticeable once on the car. In comparrison to the old High Kick it is flatter and goes back away from car more. I will try to get a pic of both sitting on the car for reference. Hopefully I will have time Thursday or Friday to get this done and posted.

Grabbed a couple of photos. Did one comparing the High Kick to the M4 style spoiler. One that shows where the UV Clear coat is a little messed up. I may pull it and reset it. The one side isn't sitting very well. My high kick was like that at first but settled with time but I'm not sure this one will. Also if anyone has any ideas on what to buff out the line my high kick left let me know.

Thumbs up

This spoiler is a little dirty in the pics. Other than the one spot which the picture didn't do a good job of showing it looks really good. I will say it is smaller than I was hoping for. I did want it to be a bit bigger. It wraps around the back edge more than the high kick as you can see from the line in the one picture. Let me know if you have any questions or pic requests. I'm not on here very regularly and as far as I can tell there is no way to set up alerts of any kind so bear with me.

@TheONE24

Let's see some other angles. Could also look very different on a black e92 too. How about straight on photo from the back, lower angles, etc.

The problem with the E92 M4 spoiler is that the corners are not smooth, its a 90 degree angle.

You know what? I THOUGHT I wanted this too...then I saw this.

http://marsperformance.com.au/BMW-F8...inlcude-E92-M3

While it looks like a quality piece, it just doesn't look right on the E92. The F82 is a lot of angular hardness, it works there - the E92 is curvy and smooth...going to go with the OEM high-kick.
