Thumbs up

I found this spoiler from a webshop, but I can't identify which one is it. They have named it only as a trunk spoiler. Made of ABS plastics and is cheap as chips!
I started to think if I should invest into a spoiler, but not sure which one to choose. How do you like this? Sorry this is the only pic of it that I could found...

I don't know what is it, but doesn't appear to be OEM M5.

Thanks I think so too.
What do you people think of this one?

edit: It is very difficult to tell on the picture, but is it larger like AC Schnitzer spoiler?
edit2: Or Hamann?

It doesn't look like a good fit to me. Its almost as if its a generic spoiler for cars that size

I think there are better options out there:
- M5 spoiler, subtle and tasteful (I had that on my last E60, looked great)
- ACS or Alpina, more pronounced that the M5 spoiler but still tasteful
- Vorsteiner with the carbon insert, somewhere between the M5 and ACS spoiler for size, slightly different style, I think Nigxdoof has this one, looks hot

I think a roof spoiler or trunk spoiler would complement your splitter nicely

Not to my taste. Look for ACS style replicas, Ebay is full of them. Dont't buy one those that are made of fiberglass (FPR). Look for a spoiler that is made of PU or PUR (poly urethane).
