I don't think Alpina sell their spoilers separately, but only offer them with their cars. But I live by the moto "don't ask, don't get", so its obviously worth sending the an email.

If they confirm that their spoilers fit to the LCI models, but they won't sell you one, you could approach your BMW dealer and ask them to order one. They should be able to order it from Alpina as a "spare part" for repair / replacement.

One word of warning, the Alpina spoilers are not cheap!!!

That Alpina one looks sweet !

Please bear in mind that these adds are prone to getting scraped on our indian roads+speed bumps

You could also ask Hamann if they have an LCI spoiler. The one in the picture is pre-LCI.
This is my personal favourite, compared to the OEM CF (above), ACS or Alpina.

note to Insane Devil... you were orginally looking at a $70 ebay replica spoiler and are now getting advice on some significantly more expensive kit... now's your last change to make a run for it before the E60.NET modding bug gets you... unless it already has

Thanks all for the replies!

@ Sahil : Hey buddy! Sahil, thats the reason i am not keen on the Alpina kind of spoiler, as its fitted very very low, and would surely scrape around indian roads a lot! the eBay spoiler i have posted up there, is a bit more higher off from the ground, its fit along the bumper, and mostly to cover the empty space between one foglamp to the other...Sahil, maybe that will suit your car? or is it that u too have similar bumper as mine?

@ Syed : Thanks for the pics Syed, but unfortunately what u post is for the PRE-LCI, not for the latest version of bumper.

@ xBMWx : Hey there! well, u know, the bug is definately eating me up slowly, finger by finger, limb by limb! hahaha! Well i surely dont want an expensive thing, coz here we tend to have ppl hit our bumpers from front and behind frequently! ppl are a lot careless around here, and the bumpers are the first point of target.. so anything expensive on that portion is just waste of money (EVEN IF I DO LOVE THAT THING)! know what i mean....?


Still waiting for a good 2008 LCI model bumper addon! desperately!

Thanks again!

My cars LCI too so we have the same bumper. Only difference btwn our cars externally are the wheels.
Go for the ebay listing i doubt you would find anything at that price range, it looks decent too

@ Syed: Unfortunately there is nothing at all as of now for the NEW LCI model bumper.

@ Sahil: Bhai! i luv the ebay spoiler, but unfortunately i cant go in for that, as that doesnt suit our bumpers! If not, it would have reached me by now
