I like the ACS Type rear spoiler. I may be a little biased though!

M5 for me, somehow the overhang of the ACS just lloks a little off.

I bought one off ebay, it wouldn't bend to fit the deck lid.

The AC style spoiler I ordered through ebay came in today (ordered it on 7/10) and the quality is excellent. The paint job is very high quality and matches perfectly. I haven't installed it yet but I did a dry fit and it is spot on with no gaps.. It comes with 3m double sided tape already installed on the spoiler and includes some alcohol wipes and a tube of adhesion promoter & q-tip to apply. Hopefully I'll get a chance to put it on tomorrow.

Here's a link to the auction I won, if anyone is interested.

My two cents on this...

I had same debate (with myself) about spoiler. After few months with M style (got it from Trinity) I decided to delete it.




Was thinking about ACS as my permanent choice, but not sure. I think ACS looks good with matching diffuser or roof, or something....

When I'll get my M Style rear bumper (already in the paint shop) will definitely get something. Clean for now...
