That's just a regular BMW Performance E92 spoiler that IND paints at their shop -- it's certainly not the OEM CRT spoiler (which is for E90s only). You can buy one yourself and have IND paint it, you can buy a replica and have IND paint it, you can buy any spoiler and have IND paint it, or you can buy any spoiler and have it painted wherever you want.

CRT style paint job is a nice touch. I guess you could try buy a E92 Performance spoiler replica and then take it to a body shop and ask them to do as you wish, but for the fitting and finish I'd be inclined to do it right first time round rather than regret a sub-par replica!

Atleast getting it from IND it will be done right, plus you'll get a bunch of MF towels with it lol

I have one from IND, paint was a perfect match and flawless and it fit like it was made to go on my E90 (go figure). Would much rather do that then spend $300 for a replica, $200 for paint, then realize I only saved $100 in exchange for mediocre fitment.

whenever i need microfiber towels i just order something from IND like a keychain, and i end up making out with about 15 towels.

for my more serious towel needs i just buy superchargers from them.

The ONE disadvantage to living 20min away from IND. I don't get MF towels since I pick up stuff at the shop, haha.

To the OP, as others have mentioned. I say do it right the first time with no worry. Get the BMW Performance Spoiler with the IND CRT-style pin stripe.
