Thumbs up

I really like the Hamann style roof spoiler alot better then the ACS style spoiler and I was wondering if you guys like this?

Had any input on this ebay vendor?

Finally does this spoiler look okay with the SAT antenna right in front of it?

Anyone with the Haman roof spoiler please send me feed back...

I think the Hamann roof spoiler sticks up too high (little too WRX for me) the ACS on the other hand, though more common is nice and tight to the window! Good Luck with your decision!

Yeah I did notice that the company was from Bejing, but I did see another vendor on there with the same type spoiler from the good old US.

I was mainly trying to get feedback on the style of the spoiler, honestly I like how it stick up. I know most of you have recommended the ACS style, the problem I have with that is, to me it just lays flat.....I mean seriously, whats the point then???? no offense to anyone who is rocking the ACS...especially since I have that ACS trunk spoiler..

I am just tryin to find the taste I like, an so far Hamann gets it. Anyone have some good side profile picks of the RDSport????

Please post....thanks

+1 on not adding any spoilers/body kits that don't come from BMW. No problems with putting M5 style parts on a non-M5 E60, that's fine, but after market stuff looks a bit ricer and 80s for my own personal taste.
