roof spoilers?

e92MMM · 02-03-2012, 08:59 AM

what are peoples thoughts on these for the m. i was thinking about the hamann roof spoiler in carbon fiber

Chamberlin · 02-03-2012, 09:17 AM

I was sold on them when I saw a white one installed on a white car...it just looked right....go to the car dealer called destination motorsports web page (they're in Oregon), and check out the '08 E92 they have for sale...very tasty

e92MMM · 02-03-2012, 10:57 AM

yah im worried about how the aftermarket carbon fiber will look next to the stock roof

immiketoo · 02-03-2012, 11:43 AM

No. / thread.

Made for Glendale only

stefan · 02-03-2012, 12:20 PM

I think it.. sort of.. works with the entire Hamann E92 kit. I know some people are big fans of the german tuner bodykits.

I guess if you want to add extra stuff to your car so you can find it at meets among the sea of other black E92's, go for it. A shame they don't have antennas on cars anymore or a $0.50 antenna-topper could do the same thing.

I am thinking of one myself and I never thought I would. My reason though is a little different. I want it to hide the bubbles in my window tint at the dots on the top of the rear window.

osteome · 02-03-2012, 10:24 PM

Not a fan, but I have an E93. I would say that if you are going to go for it, go big....

advanced101 · 02-03-2012, 10:28 PM

Don't do it

SchnellM3 · 02-03-2012, 10:55 PM

Don't like them at all

blackbeast535 · 02-04-2012, 12:14 AM

doesn't work well with the e9X platform

corrado79 · 02-04-2012, 02:16 AM

Sounds racist to me.

I agree...get a full louver kit instead.

Stronghammer · 02-04-2012, 06:21 AM

Not for me

Mike van D · 02-04-2012, 07:49 AM

Not strong feelings either way, but think the Schnitzer one looks best from what I've seen. Not as gaudy as the Hamann.

Wasn't that a relatively popular trend for American cars? I think a few BMW guys jumped on the bandwagon in the 90s as well IIRC. Louver? Louvres? No idea what these are called.

Can't see it making a comeback. Maybe on a Ford/GM.
