Trunk Lid Spoiler

Anyone know of a place to look for a trunk lid spoiler for the W210 body style? I have seem plenty of those spoilers for a W211 on ebay, etc. I don't like the 'raised' winged spoilers with brake like, etc. I just want a simple flat addition to the trunk like the one they have on this W211 body found at http://www.autoblz.com/catalog/produ...products_id=49.

Anyway, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
MbMiller

I like those alot too.

But for other instance, i would only trade my lorinser spoiler for one with identical quality. It was installed in 1996 and still looks like new, it´s led lights never failed.

That E46 M3 lip will NOT fit correctly; issue being the length (too short) & curvature of the unit...I know this cuz I've test fitted it.

As stated, Kenny or Matt can assist in obtaining the BC product.

Here's a snap shot of my CF spoilers.

No offence but it doesn't seem to make much sense for the stuff to be going half way round the world and back again to Asia? Why not contact BC direct? Although our exerprience is they don't entertain private overseas orders but they may be able to give you contacts to a dealer nearby....just my $0.02

Thanks bratha Those mods and among others have been installed for quite some time now, just been lagging to take pics :p

Karlson....Davey makes a good point, BC must have a distributor in South East Asia or go direct.

Hey Rich, did you try the genuine M3 spoiler or the actual featured? If the replica one on Ebay is made for the W210, it may just fit. I've always liked the subtlety of the M3 style spoiler and have been looking for one just like that for ages....

This isn't the first time I've seen these ads with their claims, just under a different name/company. I visited several shops in the Monterey Park/El Monte/Diamond Bar area (they all seem to cluster in these areas...replicas galore) selling M3 type spoilers claiming to universally fit other makes & models...what a joke and a waste of my time! A majority of the shops in that surrounding area mainly deal with Jap imports, a W210 is foreign terminology.

But hey, I'll give the seller the benefit of the doubt if he can furnish a snap shot of their spoiler on our W210.

BTW: I recall someone on the W208 forum retrofitting an M3 trunk lip spoiler on their vehicle.

Looking at the pic, I'm thinking even if they fit, the squarer corner of the W210 trunk may not match that kind of spoiler

Look into your Only Mercedes mag archives, Empire sells a very similar unit but made to fit the W210, yet rare and hard to obtain.

A replica of the brain trunk lip will soon be available from speedvision motorsport, the people who make the lorinser replica roof wing. Just a heads up It'll probably be $150.

Kenny is the owner of Darkside; he's a cool cat....Jack's a real mellow dood, far from how he's perceive on the tube. The body shop that did the work on his X5 installed my BC spoilers. UPN 13 news anchor Laura Sanchez stops in frequently to pick up goodies for her SL55...what a HOTTIE

dunno who laura sanchez is, but if a UPN newsreader can afford a SL55, i wonder what kind of rides the regular hetwork readers drive!

Found the Empire trunk lip - looks more like the Renntech one as it extends over the edge of the trunk. Not as subtle as the M3 one but looks good nonetheless. The page I found lists out the cost of each individual pc on the kit...dang wish i could work out which one the lip spoiler is
