AW+CF BMW Performance Spoiler Installed

I just installed my performance spoiler which i got from IND. I asked them to paint the top white and leave the backside CF. I really like the look, and I'm glad i took this route. I installed it with 3M tape, and im 100% sure it will stay on. I don't think it has been done like this on a white car before, so here you go:


I installed it at night, so I'll take better pics tomorrow.
















* Thanks to Nate and Andrew at IND, the paint is perfect and the packing of the spoiler was excellent!

It's not that hard but it took me a really long time, and I have blisters all over my fingers. The 3M tape was very tough to cut through, even when i heated it with a hairdryer. I used dental floss and it kept cutting, so i would recommend something stronger like a fishing line. Also, when the stock spoiler was off, it was tough getting the residue tape off. So I kept heating it with a hair dryer and rubbing the residue off.

Might be due to the fact that 3M tape was used instead of Betalink. Maybe, i don't know. Still looks real good. I think when I do mine, I will do it with DS tape first. I can always Betalink it later.

There was a gap because I didn't put 3M tape on the corner by mistake. After I saw the gap I just pushed hard on the spoiler at the ends, and i think the 3M tape compressed or something, and there is no longer a gap.
