Hey John can you snap some before/after pics?

..When the mod bug bites, it bites hard! I just ordered some M5 sides, and a few other goodies as well!



Have fun!

Ok, after a minor set back - I removed my old trunk spoiler and it took some paint with it. Also, I decided to not use the M5 rep spoiler, just because I wanted something a little bolder. So I went with CF instead. Let me know what you think.

The carbon fiber spoiler and trunk finisher literally finish the rear very well!
I think it was a good decision to go with cf, because it works nicely with that cf lip down under the bumper.

Thanks Antti, I liked the contrast as well. There seems to be a Silver Gray w/black accents theme developing on my car. Which is good, keeps it from being too monochrome.

Looks great John. CF trunk spoiler compliments the lower CF lip on the bumper. Further, the trunk finisher makes the car look flush.
