Another round of ICE
New Roof Spoiler
Just installed new painted roof spoiler from BMWCHOP ($130)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...d=587545158012
The piece has a precise fit to the curvature of the roof edge and rear glass in plan view and appears to be of high quality. The leading edge is a bit thicker than I expected, so it's slightly overflush to the trailing edge of the roof in side view. Color match is good, although seems a bit lighter from some angles, perhaps related to the metalflake component in the paint. Attachment was made with the included adhesive tape and a series of urethane "dots" placed the length of the part between the two strips of tape and taped in place for 12 hours.

I bought mine from emotors2000 (100% positive feedback) on eBay, and I am very satisfied with the quality.
I paid $95 painted +$40 shipping, and shipping was fast considering it came from Taiwan.

There are some issue with the SW affecting various things on MBW. IB, MBW owner, is having some UNIX tech look into things. Please PM Vraa as he is the most savvy on SW and opinionated on UNIX Thanx
