C-Class Lip Spoiler...Thoughts on this
I prefer the look of this lip spoiler more than the standard C55 spoiler, this is taken off of the BMW/M3 lip spoiler designs..any thoughts on this, has anyone actually seen pictures of it on a W203? Obviously this would need to be painted, but seems to be very cheap.
Thoughts?

I've requested a picture of the spoiler on a W203 from the seller, well see if he actually has it.
I will keep you all posted.
Just reviewed the sellers feedback as well, all of his negative feedback come from people who have purchased the spoiler for vehicles other than BMW's, specifically one Mercedes and one Volvo owner...makes you wonder.

this is a popular mod for the VW jetta heads. i was doing this to my jetta. its a replica of the M3 lip spoiler. its a flexible material (polyurathane?) basicly you can buy one of those that are basicly the right lenght. or buy a generic one and cut to fit. most of the Jetta people got one ment for an M3 then just cut to fit.

I always wondered how the M3 style lip spoilers would fit on the W203. The trunk edge has a duck bill kind of edge and curves up. Most of the pictures I've seen of M3 spoilers on non-BMWs are on cars with flat trunk lids like BMW has. Please keep us updated if you find a picture of that spoiler on a W203. I was a little interested in how it would look also but thought it wouldn't sit properly with the shape of our trunk.

Heard back from the seller and big suprise, they do not have a picture of the spoiler on a W203. My guess is that it would look horrible, it seems as if he is selling the exact same spoiler for numerous types of cars, obviously they wont all fit correctly.
It was worth a shot...
