Trunk spoiler just came in. It’s not mounted yet. I laid it over the OEM spoiler just to see what it would look like. Love it. Can’t wait to have it installed.

You’re welcome, counselor! 😉

I believe that stock spoilers always come in body color.

My spoiler on 2021 Competition is gloss black like all the other exterior trim pieces. I thought only the base M5 featured the body color spoiler. May it changed after 2021.

I wanted an aggressive diffuser to go with the aggressive trunk spoiler.

Looks great. Are all of the CF pieces from BMW? If not, what’s the brand and where did you get it? Thanks

Speed bumps not so much. However leaving parking lots and gas stations you need to be careful. Just exit at an angle. I’m very used to driving low vehicles. I’ve been lowering my BMWs for decades. Even my X5 4.8is back in 2006.

Do you have some sort of aftermarket lens on your phone or are your pictures distorted with editing? Your front and rear end look extra wide.

The new pics look better. The 0.5 zoom made your car look like it had one too many cheeseburgers.
