Poll: E92 Decklid Choice? Vorsteiner, Hartge, or Rieger?

trick50 · 11-19-2007, 07:03 PM

Trying to decide which spoiler to get for my E92.

What do you guys think..
Rieger, Vorsteiner, or Hartge Decklid? I was leaning towards the Vorsteiner myself because it almost looks as if it is part of the trunk which I like cuz it is nice and smooth and clean looking...But I have like the Hartge and Rieger ones since I first saw them almost a year ago. I think the Hartge one looks a little better than the Rieger as the Rieger one is a little chunky looking from the side.

What do you guys think?

Out of those three, I'd say Hartge.

But if you could chose from any possible one, I'd look into the CSL.. but that's just me

Who makes the CSL one? I didn't know that anyone made it yet? Any info would help.

Thanks

So i have to spend an extra $227 for them to sell me one that fits?? That doesn't sound like such a great deal...

If I wanted the carbon look then fine but I am planning on painting it anyway...What a bunch of crap....

For that money I can get the Hartge.

How exactly did it not fit? Why would it have to be bolted I don't get it?

Vorsteiner all the way it has the cleanest lines and is the classiest looking

+1 on Vorsteiner not fitting right. It's like you have to push it with some force during install to fit. And there're still a little gap on both side of the spoiler, just look at OC_335i's pics and you'll see what I mean. Also, the surface quality is not great either, there's alot of "pin-holes" on the surface that body shops need to fix before it's ready to be painted, unlike OEM where the surface is perfectly smooth. Now I have the option of upgrading to the CSL trunk whenever it comes out, but I'll see how good the quality is first.

Hartge ftw.

True and not so true.

The CF ones seem to fit pretty nicely. Longtran's/Jenn's e92 fits perfectly. I'll be upgrading to something else sometime in the near future.

I know the CF one fits better. And I never said they don't fit, you just have to sort of bend it as others have said in the past, where as oem spoiler just fits perfectly without having to "adjust".

The CF one really doesn't bend though. The PUR one flexes more.

hartge for me.

3thirty5 · 11-20-2007, 09:22 AM

you should include the OEM E92 M3 trunk spoiler on there too, cause I think that one looks the best!

picus · 11-20-2007, 09:23 AM

I think Vorsteiner is coming out with a CSL bootlid (entire piece) soon. I'm waiting on that.

I would if I were even considering it! Personally I don't like the M3 spoiler...I think it is too suttle.

This poll is about what I should get for my car and the three in the poll are ones I am considering and I would not consider the M3 lip..

Thanks for the suggestion though.
