ive been trying to find an m3 or m5 style spoiler for my car. I like the way they look with a lip kit, and a roof spoiler. I dont feel like paying 200 for a fiberglass sarona spoiler, but i found these on ebay. I know they are cheap, but if i dont like it i could chuck it. what do you think
M3 style
m5 style

 

my friend has one of these for his 198x volvo. it looks pretty good. i dont know if you can paint it though. its made out of a flexible rubber/plastic material.

 

if i got it id paint it with some krylon fusion primer to see if it would hold

 

ahh i see. i say go for it. its only 5 dollars, what is there to lose

 

really its 30 but still if its trash, trash it. i will get it when i get my check

 

you must have missed the 27.00 shipping....

 

whichever one you decide on definitely post some good pics with it on so we can see how it looks.

 

If you do get one & don't want to have a shop professionally paint it to match your car perfectly, then all you will need to do is the following.

1) Wash it with soapy water to release the mold agent.

2) take some Ajax on a scotchbrite pad & scrub it gentley.

3) Rinse it with clean water (No soap)

4) dry it well

5) Spray some bulldog adhesion promotor. http://www.repaintsupply.com/pd-bull...n_promoter.cfm can be purchased at pepboys also.

6) spray it with some color match rattle can...

 

I'll be honest, I can't figure out the difference between the M3 and the M5 spoiler

 

Looks like junk to me. You could try it, shippings pretty hight tho.

 

Try it. 30 dollars is cheap enough, if it's junk just trash it. if you do get it put up a pic, i'm interested in how it would look.

 

i got it on my 99 max looks very sweet clean and sleek i just wanted something different from everyone else with a regular spoiler, i got it painted when i got my car repainted and put the stillen kit on paint stuck really well no problems only thing that was hard was putting it on the car evenly from side to side. i say go for it if you want to see pics just let me know and ill upload them. picture on my sig is before i repainted it.

 

the difference is in the height the m3 is 3/4" and the m5 is 1"

 

can't you make any decisions for yourself dude? How many threads do you have asking the org whether you should buy something or not.

 

its your car so why care what other people think about it...
we most likely wont flame you unless you put a high rise carbon fiber spoiler with bright green flames a fart can and gtr symbols on the max...so in your mind if you think its clean... do it

 

oooooo, 1 quarter of an inch

 

it dont matter whether its a quarter of an inch or a mile, winning is winning

 

m3 style FTW!!! that will look real good man. and who cares if he posts threads asking our opinions why else would this forum exist???

 

because i know that im not the first person that thought about buying it. i want to know if what i am looking at is trash!

 

 

Awesome thread title btw.

I guess it would have been too much trouble to say, "Fitment/quality questions about the M3 style trunk lip spoiler found on ebay""

 

You're right man. This forum exists for the sole purpose of us asking each other which cool ebay crap we should buy for our cars.

 

do it, post pics

 

THIS THREAD FAILS!!!!

 

 

on a 4th gen itll look good cuz you guyz have that sharp 90 degree drop on the edge of the trunklid. id go for it.

 

im liking it. will order it when i get my check

 

Question: has anyone ever had one of these molded onto the trunk instead of double sided sticky tape?

I've been considering these as well when I upgrade to the 97+ trunk and I'd like to get both painted at the same time.

Anyone? Pics?

 

now that would look good

 

That's really not bad at all. Certainly gives the spoiler-less max's a nice option. But I like my stock sun damaged one, gives my car character.

 

I was cosidering it but I thought it was too much work for such a small mod

 

im goin wit the m3 one on mines

 

MISTA0406 do you have any somewhat close side shots, so we can see how it looks from the side, but not so far you can barely see it

 

Everybody was doing this a while back, there have been many posts with pics.
