Budget Painted Trunk Spoiler :)

For those looking to not spend a bunch of money or don't like the CF look of the OEM parts...

Here is a good alternative.

$119 SHIPPED and painted

Fitment 10/10 - even without the tape the edges sit flush on the trunk, no heatgun/ bending required.. you can feel sort of a 'groove' or point where the spoiler wants to be once you put it on the trunk.

(I havent been able to find one that sits closer to the edge of the trunk or covers it complete sort of like the OEM Benz spoilers thus far)


Color 8.5/10 - slightly off but no one can tell unless you like stare at it up close

Finish 8/10 - some imperfections in the clearcoat / little tiny bubbles at the corner and there is actually a small dust particle under the clear coat in the middle of the spoiler which I am aware of. Again none of these are visible under normal viewing.

Installation - easy. Peel off just a bit of one end, place it, then pull/peel the rest off with the spoiler in place.

You installed it too far on the trunk though. Right?

the location i installed it is where it "sits" naturally... if I did it again I would move it back a few millimeters but if i go to far back it wouldnt seat properly.

That red circle marks that apparent huge white gap~ but thats where the trunk starts that angling down

I guess the f30 and f32 sit differently then. anyways. paint match looks good and really adds a nice touch to your car.
