Nice CF stuff

Nice little surprise showed up this evening. I will get better pics tomorrow. I am a bit under the weather now so I am not sure when I will be able to install it.




The box had some more CF in it.

Nice!! I had mine off yesterday, and it's literally 5 minutes to replace it.. There's five 8mm screws, and the thing just pops off. Can't wait to see it.

While you're in there, can to take a flashlight and see if you can find this fabled ballast? The only thing I saw was the structural crash protection under the bumper cover that looked sizable.. nothing looked to be bolt-on ballast.

I will run the rear up on ramps and will take pics. Hopefully I can get to it tomorrow. I have a nasty cold that has me running very slow. Ugh.

You sell them? Would you ship to Australia? If so, would you consider a group buy discount, say, if 5 or more of us orded the spoiler?

That was my reaction. But it is better than $1700. I am assuming it will fit perfect unlike aftermarket CF stuff that needs to be sanded and cut to fit.

I can ship to Australia but the cost to ship is going to be high.

I do not do group buys, they are not worth it in the end for me.

I’m working on that.....all that came in the box was the spoiler.

Either tape or the goop BMW uses. I have a request in for the official instructions.

You will need to remove the stock “spoiler”.

Hmmmm odd that there were not instructions. I though they put those in the box. But what do I know, the only BMW install I have ever done was my MINI alarm. I think I got instruction with that.

You have to ask for them when you get the parts or order them. I am a bit different from an individual walking up to the counter though.
