Anyone else get one? Carbon Fiber Z4M Front Lip Spoiler

Just ordered this on monday of this past week and it arrived promptly on friday afternoon all the way from Germany.

It's basically a carbon fiber version of the mustache spoiler. Looks to be of good quality and as I have some time I will post up some more pictures.

I saw these as well and was considering ordering one. I'd be curious to see how it fits. Get that thing on there!

Very cool. Although it's obviously carbon wrapped fiber glass vs full carbon fiber.

probably better that it is for taking some on the non lateral hits. Carbon is lighter and stronger, but only in one plane, Fiberglass i would think better for this application, esp if its a street car.

Agreed, but should still look nice (hopefully).

Going to the body shop this week for an estimate and hope to have it on after the new year.

Why not just install it yourself? Looks like a fairly simply bolt-on part

Sorry, nothing yet. I plan to get this mocked up and mounted when I return from Vegas. I'll post pics as soon as this is done.

I did test fit the piece the other night and all looks like it will go smooth.

I don't now what kind of version you have. But I had to modify mine to get a perfect fit... Good quality carbon, flat and has a very nice weave

I think you have a great part there. I was thinking it was that stupid looking snow plow thing that looks utterly stupid.

But this adds some visual texture and some more "race bred aggressiveness."

It flows perfectly with front valance and that thin red strip is an excellent detail.

I hope you didn't nick the thing already? There seems to be a small gouge just left of the driver's side fang.

I bought the same piece a couple of months back and the fit was really close. I did buy a set of RPI skid plates to help secure it. It does well with keeping the lines of the car. I actually have a guy custom making the brake air intakes out of carbon fiber as well.

I have been waiting on some better weather and the lighting is terrible in the garage. I also did add the Nav-tool Front and Rear Cameras to avoid any damage.

How did you get the rear view camera onto the factory display?
