M-Performance rear spoiler painted and installed
This is the black plastic version (not carbon fiber) of the OE M-Performance spoiler. In person, it dramatically improves the rear angles of the car

Where did you get it? How much? So its not some replica from ebay right? Real deal BMW stuff? Didn't know they made one non-carbon.

Yep this is the real deal. I noticed all of the replicas on ebay seem to sag in the center of the spoiler, right above the BMW roundel on the trunk. For that reason alone, I waited for this one.
You can get them through IND. Send them an email or PM |

Nice!!
That makes the car really sharp!! Did you use double sided tape on it or the betalink adhesive? Also, is this something that EAS is going to carry? I looked it up on Tischer BMW's website for 195. Not too bad. My bodyshop guy is going to love me!!

Looks good, I might be tempted to do that one day.

IND installed 3M tape on the backside so that is what I used. My previous spoilers on my e92 were installed with 3M as well and I have never once had a problem with it.

I had the M3 spoiler on my E90. It came with the 3M tape already. It stuck well. Trust me, I tried to see how good it held!

You can remove it without any problems. Its the same 3M tape that that the badging on the trunk is attached with. To remove you can take a fishing line, and use that to slice between the spoiler and the car. Then heat up the remaining residue and rub it off with your thumb. Very easy and no damage to the paint

The gap is extremely small because the underside of the spoiler has a recessed cutout for the tape to sit in. The gap is about 1/2 the thickness of the tape itself thanks to the recess area on the spoiler

Very nice, got the same on my E90, now I want it on my new F30. How does it look not paint? I want it black but if I have to pay for the black paint maybe it's as expensive as the carbon fiber one...
