I let my BMWCCA membership lapse about a year ago so if I don't wait until after March 12, to pick it up, I lose $1000 rebate. Oh well. I already made an appointment to have my V1 hot wired, my dustless brake pads installed and my ACS spoiler installed next Friday. Hopefully the week will pass quickly.

I am in Livingston and will pick up my COP 545 tomorrow. Can you share where you purchased the ACS trunk spoiler purchased and the price including paint and installation? A real ACS spoiler? I am also thinking to get the dustless brake pads installed.
Thank you.

I saw that seller's item and interested to purchase the whole ACS kit plus the spoilers. But wondering if I might get charge duty from US Customs? Are you going to install the spoiler yourself? I will hardwire the V1 tomorrow after I pick up the car.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Let me know as I have considered buying from this exact guy before, I just didn't know the quality of the parts or painting.

Have you dealt with this Ebay vendor before? Are you having the ACS spoiler pre-painted by Carking - tuning? Let me know as I have considered buying from this exact guy before, I just didn't know the quality of the parts or painting.

k Wang, we're neighbor. I'm in Livingston too. Let me know if you need help with the V1 install, I just did it 2 months ago. Enjoy the 545 tomorrow.
