M performance front spoiler ( painted or left black )

PGC · 12-01-2016, 03:21 AM

Morning all,

I'm currently waiting for early 2017 delivery of an M240i Mineral white, I have spec'd the M performance body kit and would like to see what people have done with the front lip spoiler? Have you had it painted? all of it? part of it? None of it? would be great to see some images.

Cheers

I'm gonna leave it black. Don't want to deal with rock chips lol.

I'm most likely going to have my wrapped semi-gloss or something along those lines. I really dislike the flat black color of the plastic.

Mine will stay black on an EB M240i xdrive coupe coming in a few months. I think it'll look good regardless. There are a few photos out there of the front spitter on white F22s.

I have white as well.

Left mine black, but if I were to color match it I would just wrap it instead of painting it.

Easier to maintain and better resale value later.

One option, if you decide to paint is to have Xpel installed over the splitter. It won't save it from scrapes, but it will save it from rock chips. I have the whole front clip done and with 6000 miles on the car its already saved me from a number of chips.
