You can see it painted in the first pic below, versus the black version in the second pic. Just looks like they forgot to paint it
Is this the correct one?

https://europeanautosource.com/bmw-m...ml?vehicle=240

It's not clear, as it doesn't say "pro" and it's only $625. iND has the same one for $815.... not sure what to do as I don't want to pay $200 more for the same thing but EAS is a bit unclear as it says "large" vs pro.
Looking at the pic it's clearly the m performance pro spoiler. All the other OEM g30/f90 rear spoilers are just a tiny lip compared to the pro spoiler.
Agree. Pic is of "Pro". That price is a steal then. I would just confirm part #.

So then it's really only $625, which is an amazing deal!

What's the front kit? Kidneys, splitters and lip?

Autotechnic sells a replica of the M performance pro spoiler for $400 which I got and looks great. Not my car but here is an example.

Thanks, this helps. I guess I need to see it in person, still looks a bit bulky to me.

Also, I think I'll pass on the CF mirrors, it may be too much CF and on black, it doesn't stand out enough.
Hope this helps!

Yes! Looks great on BSM, with stock diffuser. I like that look. Thank you!

A more distant side shot of PRO. I worried about the bulk and shape too but it looks really appropriate in person. Good luck!

This is really going to depend on the person and perhaps the car color. As many have remarked this car could look a little more aggressive from the factory. It is really still in the "sleeper" category. I felt a few parts would make the car look a bit sportier but still classy and not boy - Racer.

For me I wanted only OEM BMW performance parts carbon fiber. I bought my car already on the ground and it came with a lot of carbon fiber, including the diffuser, front kidney grilles and splitters and the side gills. I added the pro spoiler (in place of the flat cf spoiler) and the mirror caps. My cars is black So the parts provide a nice contrast. Again this is completely an individual choice. Congratulations on the car and good luck with your choices!

If you think that's bulky then you should just stick with the spoiler it comes with. The pro is one of the smaller profile options. Especially since it sits on the rear edge and not the top like the 3rd parties.

I've recently fallen in love with the pro spoiler on these M5's...makes the rear look nice and aggressive and it's not too much, it's just right.

I initially thought the pro spoiler was too much but after recently seeing it in person on one, I really like it. My thought was it was too much although the M5 is a sport sedan. My opinion its a beast of a car and will tear a new ass hole in most cars but you don't want them to know until its too late. After that, you can pull up in front of church or country club.

Not the best pictures, as it is still wrapped. This is on mine. Sitting at the dealer on the sales hold. Will post a few more once I get the car.

Love the look of it.

Loooooove the color. If I ordered again I may well have switched from MBB to SRB.

Atlantis may be my favorite BMW blue and snapper rocks looks almost identical.

Thanks!

Saw the color on a M235 (I think?) at the dealer when we finalized the deal. Fell in love with it. Pictures don't do it justice. I wanted something with a little "pop" that makes the car stand out.

Loved the Imola launch color, and was disappointed when I found out it was a $5k option. At the time I was actually frustrated that they would launch the LCI with a special order paint.

Additional pictures of Pro spoiler/BSM

Took these at the dealership today. Pretty sure you've made up your mind but thought you might want to see additional pictures of BSM with CF Pro.

Thank you! I decided to go with it, it just arrived today! I have the M perf CF side grilles, kidney grilles, pro spoiler, and I got the side splitters too, and they look good! Will post pics soon. The only thing I skipped was the rear diffuser and mirror caps. I still may do the mirrors, but I think the stock diffuser is the best.

Did you order from EAS? Was it really that cheap compared to other vendors? I am tempted at that price...


BTW - The diffuser is pretty darn nice!

Oh yes! It's so much less. I paid $625 and $1300 for the spoiler (pro) and side splitters. BMW matched the price from EAS so I got from BMW directly. I saved $500 total.
