Hello Everyone,

We made our first full carbon fiber rear spoiler for the Z4 / MZ4 coupe.

It is made with 100% carbon fiber, and it is only weight 2.9 oz.

Customer gets to choose Plain weave or twill weaves.

Thanks to New Century BMW for letting me using their car to take a few shots of the car with the spoiler.

If anyone is interested or have question about the product please feel free to contact me at eric@tekarbon.com.

Thank you

Price? Is this just like the OEM one? Is there anyway we can pay more to make the spoiler higher, not by much just an inch or so.

So we can't change the height on it?

wyu177 · 05-26-2009, 05:45 PM

I don't really understand the need for this when OEM one can be had for about the same price? Am I missing something?

hmm...is the oem spoiler plain or twill? I believe it is twill right?

3002 tii · 05-27-2009, 08:50 AM

either the spoiler is too long (wide) or it was placed too far back b/c the ends do not sit flush with the trunk. i remember i encountered this issue when i tried to sit the oem spoiler closest to the front as possible in order for it to get flush with the center lip of the trunk but as a result, the ends of the spoiler was not flush. talked to my friend at a body shop and he then pointed out the lip isn't supposed sit that far back, so we pushed it up a bit and now sits perfect.

Quality of the spoiler is very good. There are some areas where it's a little wavy, but overall the weave is perfect.

My slight complaint is that the doublesided tape which is affixed to the spoiler is a little thicker than i imagined. I'll be colouring the sides of the tape with a black sharpie so it can't be seen so easily. Alternatively i might restick but the current one definitely looks like it will hold very very well.

Pretty happy with the spoiler. Looks very nice and subtle. You can see it through your rear view mirror too.

Thanks to Eric from Tekarbon.
