BMW rear spoiler

Well I just bought what I thought was an e-bay trunk lip (bmw style). When I got it home I found it was an AC Schnitzer real BMW lip!
Has anyone ever mounted or painted or know about this lip?

If you got it on ebay, and the price is too good to be true, then its fake. Just like Mugen seats and valve covers for 1/4 the real price. There knockoffs of everything on ebay, and you can put whatever name you want on it.

No, I bought it at a local tent sale! It has the German instructions and model numbers! Its for an E46 coupe. (It is missing the ends that go on the rear fenders)The number in on the end of the lip!

I dont think AC Schnitzer makes rear "lip" wings

Perhaps you got the roof wing

Anyways, AC Schnitzer is expensive all their products new (wings) are all above $300

I may not be the smartest guy on the block, but I can tell a roof spoiler from a trunk lip!
(the papers in german show how to mount it)

can you take a rear shot, I think it might not look that bad, also, it kinda runs unflush towards the ends, does it bend easily?

Yes it bends very easy, if you look at the book its bent. I think it "straightened out" from laying around in the box.

Honestly I think that will look pretty damn good even if it doesnt have the extra pieces at the side. Get that painted asap.

IMO, it looks like its missing something without the end sides. i bet it'd look clean and flush with some ends and paint. other than that, nice catch. i would sell for killer prices if you cant get the ends for cheap

are you getting the trunk lid piece painted as well?
