To paint, should only cost about Ԛ£100-Ԛ£150 to paint that.

Hey M5
Is that the spoiler that you need to stick/fit onto the original Metal chin?(where the fogs are). I have been toying with the idea of an alpina spoiler for my car.

It just fits over the lower valence.

Then you screw it in from the top.

Very difficult to remove without damaging once fitted.

Must get it painted!!

I might just have a go painting it myself.......

Going to have a go today at doing it. Got quite a steady hand and a very clean garage so should be ok.

I paid around Ԛ£180 for it and it was brand new.

They just look soo cool!

This turd maybe will become turbo turd. Looking around for parts now.

Speed humps arent a problem at all, the car isnt really low at the front.

Looks gorgeous but if i fitted it to my car it would be resting on the ground.
Im still trying to find a nice splitter to get for the front of mine.

I havent actually secured it on yet properly.

However, as you have said quite rightly, will be removing the bumper and using self tapping screws.

I cant be bothered to spray it myself so will give it to someone to do. Then a permanent fit.
