Best/cheapest trunk spoiler?
Really want to get a subtle trunk spoiler to make the rear of the car stand out a bit. I don't want anything crazy expensive, the best deal I have found so far is this one, it's a great price and pretty much exactly what I'm looking for - https://mbworld.org/forums/w211-amg/...0-shipped.html - but I don't know if the guy still sells them or what.. anyone have some suggestions?

I think the aero function lip spoiler looks very good.

And I'm good on the Hondas, I can hardly drive those things without stalling and I never stall any cars so you go ahead... I guess my genes won't even allow me to drive that slow economy stuff.

I sent gary@suvneer a PM yesterday and email today but no reply so far.

I bought on off ebay color matched and it fits perfect for less than $80 shipped.
Been on for three years with no problems
Believe it or not no one has come up to me and flamed me for not going OEM
Guys, its a freaking piece of plastic, not a brake or engine component.

You have any keywords or links to the spoiler you bought on ebay so I could check it out?

It's a freaking trunk spoiler for god sake. No reason to pay the premium for OEM. Any aftermarket spoiler (jbspeed or suvneer) will be fine. I've had a suvneer on for over 3 years and it's held up fine.
Of course there are some scenarios were OEM would be the better option, but this is not the case for a trunk spoiler.

Good question, but the easy answer is they're cheap. I've yet to see a picture of one of those installed that looks like it fits right. Gaps and spacing is off on every one I've seen. But you get 90% of the E63 look for about 30% of the cost of OEM. That's why people jump on them.

I bought the cheapest one on EBay I could find that came with the roof spoiler. It came in last week, I sanded it and painted it, it looks 100%. I have gotten so many compliments on it's fitting in the past few days. I sanded some corners a little to smooth them out. Think I paid $120 for both and $13 for a pint of paint.
