eBay painted spoiler

Hi,
I recently bought a 2011 135i. Among the mods I am doing/intending to do is replacing the hideous joke of a spoiler that ships with the E82.

So I searched eBay for a painted spoiler since I don't really like carbon fiber.

I paid $125 for it, shipping from Taiwan included and it took about 4 days to get to me in California. The tape that came with it wasn't all that great so I got a bunch of rolls of 3M tape and supplies:
3M 03614 Scotch-Mount 1/2" x 15' Molding Tape
3M 03616 Scotch-Mount 7/8" x 15' Molding Tape
3M 03618 Adhesive Remover - 12 oz.
3M 4298 Adhesion Promoter, Sponge Applicator

Here are some pictures if you guys are interested.

PS: the removal process is a b*tch.

Was your OEM "spoiler" a pain to remove too?
