Rear spoiler?

Is the trunk identical to the other 1 series models or is there a very small spoiler lip attached to it?

Asking because I'm trying to figure out if some of the aftermarket carbon fiber spoilers (TMS, iCarbon, etc.) would fit.

Thanks.

Neil

I'm guessing it would be pretty easy to detach. Did it look that way to you?

You could fit the BMW Performance Carbon rear spoiler on it.
Anyway.. the gurney flap which is on by default, is much better regarding aerodynamics.
