PUR for flexibility for good fitment.

Just looking around at prices... not gonna knock bmw but ive ordered great pre-painted spoilers online in the past, for a steal of a price compared to what bmw would do it for. fitment just as good as OEM. but ive also ordered CRAP online as well.

Browsed ebay real quick... been looking on the jbspeed site also.. ive heard many good things from forum members about the jbspeed site...

truthfully, i ordered a spoiler off ebay for my e90a year ago, csl add on spoiler. thing looked amazing. came painted and ready to go. the fitment for it was perfect too. so there are some good products out on ebay, you just need to be very careful on which u choose. i got my csl spoiler for a steal, it was painted and shipped for $140. Heres what it looked like...

PM JBSpeed or msg him on aim. Usually gives better prices than his site.

Deff a night and day difference on the OEM spoiler opposed to the cheaper one you ordered. If you dont mind, what did the OEM run you for with the paintjob?

The one I ended up installing was from Faulker BMW and was finished in their BMW body shop. To my door step was $300. Well worth double (more?)of the price of the garbage I got before from asia.

This product is getting married to my car forever, I wanted / expected it to be of the best quality and finish.

IMO just by one from jbspeed or one of the vendors on here. Is you are just looking for a m3 rep lip spoiler... Any is fine. Once you tape it on... It stays. No need to spend an arm or a leg on an oem one. I have an m3 rep and it looks great and no one can tell it's a rep unless you take it off and read the bottom.

I think m3 rep is like $100 shipped or something. That's not bad. And it comes painted. I saw this last month not sure if it's still at that price but still cheap.
