540i Rear Trunk Spoiler / Too Small

I recently purchased the Rear Trunk Carbon Fiber Spoiler and its allot different from the one on my old 435 GC. The new spoiler is like a deck lid spoiler versus a spoiler that flares up higher. Anyone see any other spoilers out there?

I just ordered this spoiler for my 540xi G30 from my local dealer. $267.00 They should have it in on Monday. Hope this helps. It's paintable.

Is that in the right place? Shouldn't it be a little further back on the slanty bit?

Yes, it's the smallest CF spoiler I've seen from BMW.
I'm looking forward to see what kind of spoilers the aftermarket companies comes up with.

Why does it say large version? Never heard of it, and it's the same part number as the only one CF spoiler seen so fare for the G30.

Interesting. I actually thought it was larger but then again the image quality was really bad so there's that.

Rear spoiler came in today. Here are some pics. Kinda hard to tell the size when not on the car but it's definitely different from the carbon fiber and by the way it's made it's all indications that it fits on the car the same way as the picture on BMW accessories.

It will be alpine white when I get it. I ordered it April 25th. It finished production today. So about another month give or take a week or two if everything remains on schedule.
