Bmw m3 performance spoiler not liking how it sits

Installsplus · 07-04-2014, 03:57 PM

Bought one but not feeling the look. Anyone have any suggestions on another look. Looking for a smaller slope. Thanks

It'll grow on you.......I had the same initial thoughts due to the factory spoiler being so small. I wouldn't have a M3 without it now.........Phil

I was going to return it. Just wish it didn't slope up so high. Did you use 2 way tape

The e90 lip has less of a slope then the e92 just a thought you could look into mate there's another threat on here comparing them

will the e90 lip work on the e92?

No. The slope of the trunk surface is different.

Have you checked out a CRT-style one from JBSpeed (I know it's not OEM like the one you have currently, but still a thought)? I bought one from a member, not knowing there was a difference (or even that it was CRT-style, just that it was a "performance replica" from JBSpeed), and started wondering why it didn't slope up very high, and didn't look all that much larger than the stock one once installed (on Jerez Black, so tough to see the contrast ever). I still like it, but wish it had the higher kick/slope like the M-Perf one.

U have pics?

Don't you have an e90?

I had one on before, I loved the look viewed straight on from the back. Didn't like the duckbill look from the side. Stock for me.

you should really consider keeping it
one of the best looking spoilers on any car
it grew on me also

Yeah, I do. Guess I'm confused...JBSpeed sells 2 - A CRT Style Performance Trunk Spoiler and a Carbon Fiber Performance Trunk Spoiler... why's one $50 more? I figured it was high-kick vs. non, but I guess the pictures don't give too good of an indication of that.

The e90 version of the spoiler has a lower slope compared to the e92. The OP has an e92 so any BMW performance spoiler or rep for the e92 will have the same high kick to it. Also in your links, one is CRT style and one isn't. The CRT has a decorative stripe painted on the very edge of the spoiler.

I also didn't like the look of the performance spoiler. It never grew on me.

+1

I don't know how anyone could not love it. Honestly, I think E92 M3s look silly without one.
