Hey S,

Now that you've had the roof and trunk spoilers on for a week or so, how do you like them in terms of quality and fit? I'm thinking about ordering the same set from Delsa on eBay, but I wanted to check with you first. Also, how long did it take him to ship out the order?

Thanks!

CTC:

Got your msg and PM. Sorry for the delay in getting back to you--been hectic this week.

I love the fit and the look of the roof and tail spoilers. For the cost, they are absolutely worth the money. Alex from Delsa shipped within 48hrs of ordering and they arrived within 5 days of my placing the order. Make sure you mention you are a forum member when you order as I had told him there might be others interested..ie: discounted rate. I think it's worth it and easily done. Plus, I can tell you everytime I pull up in my dealership now...heads turn!

UPDATE:

Had my roof and tail spoiler on for almost a month now. We've had some serious storms here in the south and I was a little worried about the weather, rain etc but the spoilers have held on well and really look bad ass. There are no issues with fitment, quality or paint fading at all. This is a top notch replica, worth every cent and a very easy upgrade. I highly reccomend it to all.

I just ordered CF grilles for the front and will post a DIY for those once I get them in!

I concur. I have had the ACS replica roof spoiler on my car for over a year now and no issues. The bonding agent is great and I'm not even using any tape. Fits like a charm. I had the paint job done by a local body shop and the job is outstanding. It still looks new to this day and looks better than the paint on my actual car! And yes, it makes a world of difference with the lines of the car. Helps edge out the rear of the E60, which to me is somewhat ugly (when I compare it to my old E39).

hey jgt,

thanks for the props. No..I have no intention of posting an ACS front lip spoiler install. I, honestly, don't like how they look to be quite honest. I think it's an easy install though. Good luck with the tail and roof spoilers and let me know if I can help!
