BMW OEM CF Spoiler Bad .Quality?

OrangeCrush · 05-29-2012, 08:58 PM

I received my spoiler today but I am not very happy with the quality of the piece. It has some imperfections on the top and a lot of pits/voids. Also, the edges have a fringe on them. Will those of you who have installed the CF spoiler please take a look at the pictures and let me know if this is the norm for this spoiler. Thanks!

I have some pits and dimples on mine. Maybe 3 total. Ish.

IZZY79 · 05-29-2012, 09:43 PM

Is that on the OEM? Or a replica?

I will recieve my replica on thursday and sure hope it doesnt have those details.
You should definitly complain about that.

Good luck!

This is OEM. Maybe I should have went with a replica. I e-mailed the vendor, hopefully I get a response tomorrow. I don't think I will have an issue exchanging it, I just wanted to get your guys opinions first. Thanks.

Mine doesn't have anything like that.

+1, and I have bought 2, neither showed any of these defects. Def return it, must have been made by a hungover Slovakian on a Monday.

mPlasticDesign · 05-30-2012, 12:12 AM

^ Are they made in Slovakia?

Powerbeast · 05-30-2012, 12:27 AM

Not any issues with mine, it is actually great quality compared with many aftermarket carbon parts I have seen.

It should be for the price they charge for the BMW performance CF.

I have a BMW perf one too, and mine was perfect.

Def oem id bring back to dealer

no issues with mine

hybris4u · 05-30-2012, 12:21 PM

No issues at all with the BMW Performance spoiler or mirror covers. Excellent quality and looks.

OrangeCrush · 05-30-2012, 06:18 PM

Sending it back tomorrow for a replacement. Hopefully I have better luck this time around. I doubt it though because the same hungover Slovakian probably made this whole batch!

Mine (both of them) said so in the sticker on the inner side of the spoiler

Jezzer · 05-31-2012, 02:46 PM

All BMW carbon is made there. All the carbon on the CSL has the same stickers saying made in Slovakia
