Happy with CS style CF rear spoiler from Kies
https://www.kiesmotorsports.com/prod...=shopify_email
My PPF installer put on the new spoiler while they had it in. It's nice quality and I like the pop of carbon amidst all the white. I know there are dirt cheap aliexpress options but for $188 I like the results.

That helps. I’ve looked at this spoiler but wasn’t sure if it fits all the way across

Here ya go! Disclaimer: Yes it's dirty. I am waiting for my first wash with the PPF installer to go over care.

I went with duck bill style and had painted to match kind of like CSL look.[corner. Something looks off (literally)...unless my eyes are deceiving me, that is full mounted on the driver side, front corber. |

Honestly, when it is all said and done, I think the G87 looks best with no spoiler. If I hadn't already gotten my Kies spoiler when I saw photos without the spoiler, I would have just removed it. I think painting white makes sense with no carbon roof, definitely gives a cohesive color scheme. Cheers!

To each their own but it looks unfinished without a spoiler and the OEM is an absolute joke. IMO, the spoilers manufactured to not go to the lip of the trunk or span the width of the trunk (yes M Performance, I am talking about you) look poorly designed (or cheaper out on material). My top picks are the TRE-01 and Unit 17 OEM++. |

Either way, it's definitely subjective. After all, the best selling BMW cosmetic modification has to be M colored grill stripes...

I've seen several pics of this spoiler and it doesn't seem to fit flush on the trunk, same in this pic. Zoomed in, the color also looks off from the rest of the car in this pic.

[QUOTE=JABCAT;31593537]Idk - but it appears off-white in that photo. I had my tre-01 painted to match & it's a pretty perfect match to my trunk.[/matching.
Yeah, I did my calipers and purchased the Brooklyn Grey from BMW so it would be an exact color match. |

dissident111 and JABCAT: When they painted your spoilers, did they do the spoiler alone and then install or did they install the spoiler and then spray it and blend it into the trunk etc? I am not too comfortable with them trying to spray/blend into my new car's paint. However if they don't blend, I also worry that they will not be able to adequately match my Skyscraper paint for the spoiler. I am in the minority that I actually like the MP spoiler even though it doesn’t go to the edge of the trunk. From the rear, it blends nicely into the existing body lines. From the side, it seems to extend the trunk lip vs sitting on top of the trunk edge which is nice to my eyes. |

While it doesn’t extend to the side edges, the lines are a perfect continuation of the side profile lines. Also the fact that it extends the trunk lip instead of stacking on top of it (which the other V shape spoilers do) makes me think of the the aerodynamics of that design (MP, Turner high kick). I noticed that BMW stuck with the MP spoiler for their race version M2. My fav v shape spoiler is 3D design. But even that has a weird side profile (see attached) Last edited by nicoG87; 11-20-2024 at 04:06 AM.. |

Now I just need to find a good place to buy one that will have good fitment. I think that 3D v style would look bettermif it sat back on the trailing edge of the decklid. |

There are dozens of us! haha. I am about to order a new spoiler and was trying to love the TRE-01 since I just had the M-perf one on my 240, but I just cannot get with the look of it sitting on top of the trunk lid. The MP really blends the trunk lines the best and completes the rear end imo.
