Looks kind of like mine, but my spoiler is super rare zender lip spoiler, which overhands the sides of the trunk lid slightly, but looks killer.

They should have it at http://carshine.com.au

this is what mine is...

can you post some pics of your car? some close-ups of the spoiler, but also some that show the whole car with the spoiler in view.

I bought one (like shown in OP) off ebay for my e320. It was color matched perfect to my silver 94'. It actually hangs a bit over the trunk edges to the fenders. Looks awesome.

I don't remember the name of the seller..plus i gave him - feedback because the item came a bit damaged (but i fixed it in my paint booth). But it is just a simple piece of rubber with 3m adhesive on the back..flexible. No need to spend big bucks on the lip spoiler..just get one advertised as "m3" type...like i did. Fits the same and i think it hanging off the trunk about 1" on each side looks alot better, like a mini AMG type or something..lol

Man that looks good. so it's wider than the trunk and you just took off the adhesive where it would have stuck to the fender?

Yeah, i just left the adhesive covering on. Actually its a bit less than an inch overhang, like 5/8 inch or so. It makes the lines flow better like it was meant to be that way IMO... THe rubber is firm enough that it doesnt droop or any problems with rubbing the fender.

wow, who knew that those $25 spoilers could look so damn good! How much did you have to spend on the paint you used to color match it? did you have to buy like a gallon or something?
