No Vorsteiner boot lid for me bros. The F10 one is not in production yet.

I am talking about molding a OE spoiler to my existing lid. I have ordered the spoiler already waiting for its arrival and it needs to be painted. And I need to fix my trunk lid too.

Sorry bro. What I am saying is molding an OE spoiler on to my current boot lid.

Those material is really damn light! I think even lighter than plastic
nothing is lighter than plastic but CF is much much stronger but heavy than plastic

What's the difference is the hood was added two subtle M3-like vents and the trunk was added a subtle spoiler
I think those parts can be tailer-made to maintain OEM-look, or suit individual.
+1 if they seen the car I dont think they will say MK look
335 mod brings the life out of the BMW car

Any thoughts?
I seen some F10 with the boot spoiler and it dose look good.

I think the 1 piece looks much better than adding bits on.

RC3 Yo, I think it will look nice if you mold the trunk spoiler into one pc. I think it looks even better if the spoiler is wider. But OE tiny one still very nice, you have to paint the boot lid anyways, so why not? Ask the bodyshop to do better workmanship

Tempting but not sure how it turns out. May be too adventurous. Really have to consider. Hehe.

If I don't mold it I can change to another spoiler anytime. That's one thing to consider.

Correct, that's one thing to concern, unless you mold another bigger piece on top. But if you don't mold it, will you really change another spoiler? thinks not bro.

Hehe, not sure. Those spoilers are 3M tape on anyway.
