I'm partial to the ACS spoiler 
- the OEM 5er spoiler is too "boy racer" and the M5 spoiler is almost absent and too understated IMO.

Any one has one of these trunk lid or spoiler installed?
Did you use double sided tape or drill hole and screw it on?
Thanks,

Hey Mr. J, your car look very OEM and elegant. That's what I call classy BMW
I want to do all the mod like yours, but I don't think it's worth it on my wimpy 225hp 530i. Once I have 535 or 550 next year (car fund allowance for next year has been approved ), I'll do the same mod as yours.
I want M5 lip spoiler because it make the rear look nicer and different from Kia Rio. I might not go with trunk finisher because it'll make the car look taller. M-kit and OEM M5 wheel is a must!

Thanks my530i!
I'm considering replacing the Euro trunk lid finisher with the US version. Like what freed0m and lakerpride05 have.

I had a BMW OEM M5 spoiler on my trunk, it is so light that the weight won't make a difference in ease of closing/opening trunk.

I'd rather go with M5 spoiler. It has more clean look, better aerodynamic. If someone as M5 alpine white spoiler, I want to buy...at an discounted price
The reason I like it is that it make the trunk close easier due to heavier weight.
