Yeah. The rep is an awesome value no doubt. I just thought the info might help someone, who's contemplating either, to know the differences between the two. A few posts up, smv also called out some diffs in the leading edge smoothness and the broadness of the oem one too...but whatever I don't think you can lose with either! Just depends on what you want.

But then you may well have the last laugh when in a year or two time, our reps start peeling and falling off! Also has anyone noticed the new M3 lip is different? It looks actually smaller and more subtle to the M Performance one! |

Not all of the reps are made the same way. My rep - not this one from Ebay - looks identical to the M-Performance version (..it's just not carbon fiber). Quote:
If it starts to peel and fall off, that's more of an issue with the tape you used rather than the spoiler itself. P.S. The new M3 trunk spoiler - just like all OEM M3 trunk spoilers - is subtle. The E9X or E46 trunk spoiler is preferable, but differences in trunk shape made considering them an unviable option. You'd have a hard time differentiating between an OEM trunk spoiler and a good rep (..assuming the paint job was done well). |

Yah I was looking at his stuff. Painted for 88 bucks. Thats a steal. What is the quality of the paint and does it match under a flouresant bulb?

I have emailed both emotors and carbon king with a question about Melbourne red matching success and was told by both to get the spoiler and have it painted locally.
anyone else hearing this or had good luck with a seller and the mel red? |

Here's mine
http://www.f30post.com/forums/attach...1&d=1390495085 $180 total for both spoilers shipped and painted from Ebay So far it is a freaking awesome value. Paint is spot on. Fit is spot on. Quality is consistent with just about every spoiler I've put on (from ACS to Hamman to OEM versions) How well does it hold up? Well we had to remove the roof spoiler when we tinted the car, and that thing WOULD NOT come off. Tint guy had to heat it up and use his blade to seperate the tape
