Which Boot Spoiler?

Glasgow Rangers · 04-13-2010, 04:09 AM

I want to put a boot spoiler on my white LCI E90 M Sport.

Question is, which one? I don't want to buy the carbon fibre BMW Performance one as there are no other carbon parts on the car. I think it would look daft. I have ordered the gloss black BMW Performance grill for the car and I also have the gloss black trim around the windows so I was leaning towards black. I thought I could have it painted black instead of colour coding it white.

What do you guys recommend? I want something that suits the car.

m3 lip

I think there's a black M3 lip spoiler in the for sale section at the moment. Personally I wouldn't go for a black spoiler. The M3 lip spoiler would look strange in black on a white car since it's such a subtle spoiler. White M3 lip spoiler is a win.

Looking for a spoiler myself and I think the M3 lip spoiler gets my vote also

I prefered the chunkier look of this one for my E90 Msport - http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=251397 - to the M3 lip. It's OEM and came primed. Had it sprayed carbon black to match by local garage.

you pays your money etc.

I like them both actually, they both are very subtle and work well with the design of the car - will probably get a spoiler on mine eventually...

I believe Teddy @ SSDD does a good range, come custom painted and at reasonable cost?

I like that. I think I prefer the chunkier style too now that I see it. That would fit an LCI no bother wouldn't it? How much did you pay for it mate?

You can get the one above brand new colour coded from SSDD motorsport for £160.

Its perfect fitment.

Heres mine:

That looks well nice, Mega. How are they fitted? Are they literally stuck on or screwed through the lid itself?! Is it something that needs to be done professionally?

another shout for M3 lip... mine was from SSDD, great colour match!

rogerxp · 07-13-2010, 05:33 AM

I had the chunkier one on my E90 and thought it looked great. The M3 one also looks good though. Glad I already had one attached to my car when I got it otherwise I'd not have liked to have chosen between the two...

I vote for body colour though whichever one you end up with.

Mine...
