So I went to my local dealer and they quoted the 764 for spoiler and 1300 for front splitters. They will also give me 21% off the parts so that's significant. They said their body shop will do the install for 4 hours labor and the reprogramming is 350 for the DTC. What you all think? Anyone have pics of the front splitters installed?

Does anyone have details on the DTC reprogramming? My dealership had no clue what I was talking about and said they couldn't find anything. I did the M Perf Pro rear spoiler and front CF splitters.

I put mine on with 3m tape and let it sit overnight with weight on it. So far it’s held up great and I can barely budge it when I try to move it. Prepping the area and making sure you have full coverage with the tape helps a lot.

The parts guy wasn't sure about the DTC reprogram. He did go speak to the shop foreman and he said they could do the DTC reprogram. They indicated it probably wouldn't make a difference unless I was planning on tracking the car where the DTC reprogram could provide added benefit. Haven't pulled the trigger yet but close to doing it.

Fitted my carbon pro rear spoiler myself this weekend, and in the end, i did use the Betalink. It looks perfect, and is rock solid. The only issue i had, was the Betalink started oozing out, over the top of the nozzle like a volcano erupting, and i admittedly panicked a little, and started putting it onto the spoiler with my fingers. Big mistake, this stuff is like black tar, i cant get it off my hands yet. But the job is perfect, so im pretty stoked.
So if i did it again, i would tape the tube of Betalink into the supplied nozzle, and not panic as much, or dab it on with a coffee stirrer stick ?. |

You need to spend time to clean off the residue left behind. The spoiler comes with a little 3m tape, that's not going to hold the spoiler on the trunk lid. Use Betalink to adhere the pro spoiler but be careful cause it makes a mess if you put too much and is a pain to remove. Once it's on, use some painters tape to keep the spoiler in place overnight. It took me probably 2.5 - 3 hours of hands on time, most of which was spent removing the adhesive. Warning - the old spoiler once removed will have etched the paint. It's not super visible but it's there. The new spoiler doesn't sit on top of where the old spoiler was so it will be visible. |

The consensus was that if your old spoiler was attached with 3m tape which the body colored ones did, then it didn't leave a residue. But if your car had the same shape spoiler but carbon which was attached with Betalink, then it was going to be etched. That's what the consensus was but not sure how scientific that is. There's a chance they may have broken the original spoiler but like you said, there's no use for it. I have the original carbon spoiler sitting in a box in my basement for 2+ years now. It's underside is covered with old Betalink and I haven't had the will or want to remove it. |

My ppf installer pull the whole thing off my M5 comp and its double sided tape. Took off clean and no residue! (note however, I'm individual matte paint so not sure if that makes the removal/ factory attach method different)

Love my new spoiler!
Looks pretty nice especially with the carbon fiber roof since it's the same carbon weave.
