haha had enough of those punks, started few months back and has gotten worst.
No respect to senior members, anyways time to maybe get the trunk spoiler and roof lid for the 7. I feel bad for the girl just sitting lonely in my garage over the winter, maybe spend some time on her over the snow season.

E60.net is the BEST place period! Try to find a Mercedes, or Lexus forum equivilant to this one. You cant!
Beware of the replica trunk spoiler. It fits like ass compared to the authentic one.

You got the users name ?
As for the trunk lid i'm looking at this one http://www.jlevistreetwerks.com/BMW-E65-%2...oduct_info.html
Edit: How much it cost you to get it painted locally? I found the seller of the $28 dollar one.

Thats also the trunk spoiler I was going to use, i spoke to Nick there he said its molded from a real one, and fitment is gaurenteed, and so is color match for the price it looks good, a local shop was going to charge me 100.00 to paint the roof spoiler, but they owed me a favor so it was free. There is only 1 seller on the bay for 28.00 so that gotta be it. It fits perfect...

As for the Replica roof spoilers, all I have seen fit pretty good. You wont be able to tell the difference between a rep and AC Schnitzer roof spoiler, unless a car is sitting next to you with a real one.
For the trunk spoilers, all of the fakes I have seen are are people that have bought it from Ebay. The Ebay ones have horrible fit all around from top to bottom. They also come pre-painted with tons of fake double sided tape, and a crap load of silicone. Why would you use double sided tape and silicone together?
As for Nick at JLevisw, he sells good products. I have not seen any of his replica trunk spoilers yet, but the other stuff they carry is top notch.

If your car is older, have a local shop color match it.
