F30 v style spoiler

MY340i · 02-01-2020, 01:44 PM

Just fitted my v style spoiler and quite happy on the fitment. Next on the list is the m performance diffuser but will need a body shop to fit that as it’s a bumper off job!

Anyone else have a mineral grey/gloss black combo?

Diffuser is not a bumper off job at all! Remove the old one, clip the new one in and put the bolts in!

Spent a good hour trying to get it on but the heatshield gets in the way. It won’t physically clip in no matter how much you try to work it into place.

Think it’s an issue with some 340i’s.

I don't know what that is, but it is certainly not an F30 diffuser!! I think you bought the wrong thing mate.

Ahhh a bit of a confusing pic, that’s two diffusers together, top one is original bottom one is the m performance one

Oh I see. I've never heard of anyone needing to take the bumper on, even on a 335i/340i though

Kies Motorsports has a couple of videos on YouTube on how to do this.

Thanks - look like a potential DIY job. Hopefully the weather holds next weekend

Old one off & new one clips in and bolts underneath 10 min job. Maybe tourer has something different behind
