Trunk/Roof Spoilers
I`m a newbe here. I have a Artic White 2009 C300 Sport 4 Matic, I`ve made a few modest mods and looking to do much more. First I`m going to install a trunk lip and roof spoiler and looking for parts and places to buy.
I`ve looked on Ebay, PVC, Polyurthane and Fiberglass looks to be the materials these spoilers are made of, Whats the recomendation, which is the best material or what not to buy? What looks and holds up the best? Are any of these products from China any good?
Other than Ebay are there internet places to purchase good quality parts?

Thanks for your response. I looked up BMWCHOP on Ebay. What color paint do you have? Looks like you`re happy with the paint they did.
I also read that there may be import fees, when you ordered yours did you pay any fees? If so how much were they? Did the shipping take a long time? It`s the first time I ever order from China so a bit concerned on the outcome. Thanks Jim

My paint color is Palladium. Both spoilers have excellent color match, but in my obsessive-compulsive (re)examination(s), JBSpeed was slightly more exact. 99 of 100 people would say both are perfect, however. There were no additional fees. Shipping took about a week. I would use either/both sellers again, depending on pricing. It's easier than you are worried about.
Yea Palladium was my second choice but my last 5 cars were silver and was in for a change back to white. I have had 5 Mercedes in white so now it`s 6. Does JMspeed sell on ebay or do they have a USA store? Sorry for all the questions. Thanks Jim

Yep, I`ll be doing lowering soon, H&R and Eibach have been what I`ve been looking at, just yesterday I saw B&G suspension, they have lowering springs for 4MATIC`s. I don`t know anything about B&G so I`ll have to do some research, they are about $288 a set. I`am having some trouble finding more info, maybe some here have some experience. I`m not looking to destroy the ride though. Jim

[QUOTE=Royce118;4045461]I'm still not too sure whether I'm getting the 2011 Facelifted version ones for the w204 or the Hockey stick ones from the W212. I saw the W204 version here in Melbourne that day and to be honest they look freaking awesome and are very bright.
cool, wonder how much they'll cost!

I'm not too sure how much they would cost at the moment. I'm waiting for the price to be released as well.
