I had an ECU Remap on my 530 and it made a difference. And on the current car, it's even bigger. Get the ECU Remap. I have a great guy that can do it for your car. He's done a bunch of members on this forum and was one of my Sponsors for one of my Meets, last year.

Duh - that'll teach me to read the OP properly before replying.
Still, he could go for a white roof for the contrast![Laughing](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/laughing.gif)

Thanks but that is not a crowd that I run with.
Why not Scott, it would look "cute"

You can do the install of the spoilers yourself, seriously, just follow the DIY here in the forum and you'll be fine.

OK, here is the update. I am going to be buying an ACS style spoiler from theXman. I am going to Vlad's guy to have it repainted.
Now the part that gives me pause.
I called Vlad's hookup for the spoiler install. He strongly recommended against using tape and told me that he would want to install it using silicone. When I asked why, he said that silicon gives a much stronger bond and that taped spoilers usually fall off with time. I told him that I was concerned about lease return. He claimed that most car companies will accept a lease return with a spoiler.
Your thoughts please. Once my lease ends, I have no problem turning the car in with a spoiler but do you think BMW will accept it?
