Hey, wondering how this turned out. I was about to place an order when i saw this.. would love to see pictures.

Also, which one did you go with? the $198 or $230 option? They seem to be the same item to me, but the latter has "matte" in the description..

Thanks

yikes...sorry to hear that. is there any way to get a refund!

I tried a couple of these versions and they were all made of some sort of plastic or fiberglass with a CF look layer on top. They were all low kick and fit just OK.

I finally broke down and bought the real OEM CF version from BMW and was amazed at how light it was! It's hollow CF and weighs just a few ounces. It's what I should have installed in the first place!

its honestly a hit or a miss, you have a lot of ppl vouching for that on here so chances are you'll be fine. Ebay also has a whole bunch of warranties and all that as well so if it does not fit as described, you will get ur money back

you can find it on ebay from $150-200 shipped.

not sure why you didn't heed this advice... but your loss

-Wingman- · 06-06-2013, 12:40 PM

The cheapest one that claims to have oem fitment with a high kick I could find is on e92 lighting. Com. Can't seem to find a legit eBay performance spoiler. In glad you posted this thread because I managed to get my refund. Lol

haha not a bad deal.. if it's just the carbon fiber finish that is cracked maybe you can re-wrap it with some 3M di-noc and it will look as good as new?

i love your roof spoiler BTW, which one is it? i wouldn't mind getting one but there are so many different versions and i don't really like most of the ones I've seen

I bought some epoxy resin and I'm going to see if I can refinish it

The roof spoiler is made by ACS you can find them for a little over $100 painted now

If you don't get anywhere trying to repair the spoiler, I happen to be taking donations...
