My Ride: 2013 F10 550 - Black Metallic
Default

I bought these lip spoilers for my 07 550 on ebay and I have been on the fence about putting them on over the past year. Not a huge fan on lip spoilers, but I just got these 172 19" wheels and I feel like the car needs a bigger front end. Not sure if I wanna drop 2K on MTECH package since I have 87K on the car, but this might be a short term solution. Just need to paint them...

Would love to hear feedback.

I'm looking to do something just like that. How much did you pay for the lip spoilers?

If you aren't sure about those lip spoilers you can always contact Nerweezy (member name) of Trinity Autosport, they got me a good deal on my front bumper (M5 style) painted and installed. Give him a shout and he can take care of you. I am kinda on the fence about those too, they don't look bad, just not sure if they look "right" know what I mean?

Personally, I really like them!
I've been wanting something like this for my LCI e60's bumper...I just got a really bunk lip off of eBay that would've looked fine had it not been a pile of crap! But I wish someone would make something exactly like this for an LCI...I really like the splitter look myself.

I personally think it reminds me too much of an Civic Si lip. It's a BMW not a Honda, so it's a hands down for me. If you are not a lip spoiler type of person I would totally recommend contact Nerwyll at trinity about a Mtech front or a M5 tech like Pjinca said.

I think they look great. Where did you get these? I want a pair also. I have the same bumper as you.

Sorry for the late delay, I was out of town. Yeah, I know what everyone is talking about. I like Pjinca's statement. They dont look bad, but just not right... I bought these because the cost was so low, so I think I will wait to spend the $ on an MTECH replica front...just a pain in the ass to do that. If I could find one local already painted Sapphire Black I would do that myself.

Anyway, here is the link My link

It was 150 including shipping, so if any of you want to buy them, I will sell them at steep discount. Send me an offer.

Thanks for the feedback.

I can't really tell how they look. Can you email me closer pics? I am interested in giving it a try, since I have a small scrape in the bottom right corner of my bumper. Also how much?
