SGM 135i Vert w/ Carbon Fiber bits

I can't leave well enough alone and added the carbon fiber mirrors and spoiler. Enjoy the pictures!

Special thanks to Dan @ United BMW and the guys Tischer BMW for giving us 1Addicts such great deals!

Not bad at all, I thought they might go well with that color. Still would like to see it in person first though.

Does that rear spoiler go right over the stock little one? Is it a bolt in or a stick on?

Does anyone have a picture of the spoiler on a black metallic? Would it clash or look good? I'm tempted......

Looks great. I think these may be the first two things I do to my car once I recover from the down payment.

The convertible doesn't have a spoiler, don't know why. The coupe's spoiler must be removed, check the DIY section for instructions. My shop used BMW Betalink as an adhesive. The owner said that it reminded him of windshield adhesive.

I was debating the CF spoiler and other bits like the rear difuser and mirrors, but you have made my mind up for me..
The rear spoiler is hot.

That looks great!

I didn't like the spoiler at first, but it's really growing on me, especially with the CF mirror caps. I'll keep this in mind for my AW.

Texas, Where did you get it done and what was the cost? Classic BMW wants $129 for labor, not sure if that is a fair price or not.

The mod's look nice although personally I'd like to see more contrast with the paint. Not a dig, I have an SGM coupe at the port. SGM looks most excellent in Vert form.

Quality Body Shop on Lamar north of 183 in Austin, charged me $100.00 total and that included the Betalink adhesive that they purchased for $17.95 (?) from the BMW dealer. They work on a lot of BMWs & Mercedes and I know from experience that they are a "Quality" Body Shop.

$129 isn't bad. My dealer tried to send me to a body shop in Pflugerville and when I called the Pflug shop they didn't sound too interested in a BMW spoiler installation, so I blew them off and told my dealer that they needed a more responsive and more central recommendation.

I tried to find purple carbon fiber--it's just not readily available for the 135i yet.:wink::wink::wink:
