I emailed the company about the return policy and this is what they said,

"Thanks for your interest. If you do not like the part, you can return it
back to us. Welcome to check out our website, all of our parts had test
fit on local customer cars. If you have other questions, please let me
know.

Best Regards,
James"

No contact number or address on website, you most likely have to email them to setup a meet. LOL

They've been around for a while and have a shop. I bought a 335 lip from them a couple of years ago and it was good.

But still with the original iCarbon lip it does not fit 100% onto our bumper.


No you don't.

No you don't.

I wouldn't recommend it.



I had the iCarbon lip, and after figuring out that I was using the wrong style tape, once I put the right tape on the fitment was pretty good. There isn't enough area in the middle to drill holes and not risk them being visible from the front of the car. Not to mention, do you want to drill holes that far up on the bumper? The holes themselves could be visible from the front of the car when the lip is removed. Double-up the 3M automotive tape and you will be more than fine.


The reason why its not on my car now ies because it didn't survive a 100mph run-in with a fox.

I just did to my bumper, drilling extra holes. They are just tiny holes to put in small screws for extra security.

The holes are not visible from the front unless you bend your head underneath.

I'm just saying, drilling screws into the lip and into your bumper are not necessary.

I actually ordered a diffuser from this company a while back. I live in Norway, so I had to have it shipped for around 150$(then add custom fees). It was supposed to be in carbon fiber, but when i got it, it was just plastic with CF overlay on one of the sides. To add to that, the diffuser was crooked and bent like a mofo, aswell as to short to fit the car. The company refused to do nothing eventhough i took several pictures. Only thing they asked was if I could ship it back to them for 200$, just so they could "take a look at it".

Pfffff, I hate LJ-motoring....

Ask them when the performance quad diffuser will be ready. They told me 2 weeks but you should push them for me!

It is BMW Performance spoiler, I would rather pay more $ for quality CF parts aside from the front lip.

It is PITA to remove it if you bought some cheap replicas spoiler and it turns yellowish.

Cheers.

Uhhhhmm......that's not a BMW spoiler.....unless you are talking about maybe the rear diffuser? I believe the poster was asking about the front lip spoiler.

Edit: And....then I see your sig that it is icarbon.
