Carbon Fiber trunk lip spoiler

Does anyone know where to source a similar CF trunk lip spoiler?
http://www.jl-motoring.com/BMW_F12_F...p/bmdi1201.htm

I think it looks really nice and has that slight rounded arch that I love. Looks slightly narrower and not as tall as the M performance spoiler.

I called JL Motoring and James said it was a custom one for a local customer and that if he was to make another one that he would need a car.

I also looked up reviews and it seems like 99.9% of reviews are terrible, so even if I was to find someone local so that he can make another one thats pictured it may comes out with terrible quality/fitment.

Any help would be appreciated!

Maybe I am just better off getting the OEM CF one from BMW Performance.

The Carbon Fiber M6 trunk lips spoilers are replica's on eBay for $250. I don't know how the fitment would be on them that is why I am wanting them OEM BMW Performance trunk lip in CF.

I have the BMW Performance Carbon Fiber diffuser so it would be a good match I am thinking.

I got a replica M6 carbon fiber spoiler for only 159.99. The fitment is perfect. I really want to recommend you but it seems like mine is the last one. If you worry about ebay, try rw carbon. They have everythings carbon fiber. I ordered my diffuser there. It actually arrives soon today. I don't change the exhaust systems. I think mine is good enough. The exhaust tips can be purchased from cyba, a vendor in this forum.
P.S: Actually, here it is: http://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/121672417107 . The pictures of the car is mine, he asked for them when I installed. The price was raised.

The one you got off eBay seems like a pretty good one, especially at that price, and if you vouch that the quality and fitment is perfect then you got a great deal.

My only concern then would be the weave pattern. My OEM BMW Performance CF rear diffuser is 2x2 weave. If this one is a 2x2 as well I may just pick it up!

Interestingly, RW Carbon has been BANNED from the forums. I'm curious regarding fitment and quality of your diffuser. I was thinking of ordering diffuser from them, but saw that they got banned...

@pinghuhk: I have no idea about it since I have a F13.
@Bobby_Drake: That's interesting. They have good customer services. The quality of the diffuser is good but I'm not sure how long will it last. It will fit with no gap however, it is not snug-fit without a small modification.

What diffuser did u buy? I think all aftermarket diffusers (vorsteiner, arkym, etc.) all have minor fitment issues. There's a thread about these issues in the M6 forum. The quality of the carbon fiber more of what you pay for.

There's 3 different kinds. BMW M performance style, Vorsteiner/DTM style, and then they have just a CF version of the OEM M6 diffuser. I take it it's the OEM style?

Cool

Since they are banned, the forum won't even let me post a link to their site.

Coupe and GC spoilers are different. At least every time i've been shooping for one they have different part numbers.

The vorsteiner is different from the dtm replicas. The dtms are just the m6 one but a little longer. The vorsteiner ones have two little horns at the end

The M6 coupe standard BMW painted spoiler doesn't fit the GC as the bootlid is different.

The BMW performance carbon spoiler fits both Coupe and GC

It's because the M Performance spoiler fits on a slightly different part of the bootlid and therefore fits both.

I bought a coupe spoiler, painted it and then tried to fit to my GC and it didn't fit. Genuine BMW parts all the time. I also have the M6 diffuser fitted

I bought my M Performance from Germany for £380 a £200 saving over the uk price.

Andrew
