I remember that but don't think it was a Zender? \:\?

Oh and another vote for the Zender - beauty is in the eye of the beholder. \:D

To be honest, I wasn't that keen on the Zender spoiler \:\)

It's only since fitting it and it growing on me, that I 'sort of like' it.

Still not 100% though, but can't be bothered swapping the boot lids back over \:D

I agree with Busa the ms design one is the only nice spoiler for the coupe it just finishes the back end off, thats why i have one.

Personally, I'd say the Coupe rear does not lend itself well to any extra add-ons. The Zender spoiler just looks plain ridiculous, (it sticks out rather than up - I mean, what's that about?)

Maybe the BMW style spoiler is okay, but it's so subtle, what's the point? The Coupe looks much better uncluttered and left alone, IMO.

It'll help with aerodynamics too, and make it faster. 0-60 down to 3.7 seconds with that particular spoiler, I've been told.

Enjoy!

Funny this thread is going because i've just had a week off and fitted a DIY 'cut down' BMW Rear boot lip.

Cost £29. Simply measure the bootlid, cut the BMW spoiler down, tidy up with sand paper. Prep and paint and stick on.

Its looks like the spoiler which some guy sells in Italy for about £70 previously on forum. Nice and subtle

Will post a thread with pic's at some point this week. But its simple and cheap to DIY.
