Looks great! Something I also plan on adding when I receive my car. Did you buy yours straight from BMW?

BMW NA is sold out when I tried to order and there was a huge back order timeline so I found one in the UK with AUTOID. They are a BMW parts dealer as well I'd suggest checking out their website. They overnighted it to me.

Also FYI they have added this as a port installed option along with other M performance parts. Of course they way overcharge so I'd recommend buying it elsewhere if possible.

Use automotive 3M tape with adhesive promoter not the Bmw glue. That way you can take it off if you ever change your mind without destroying the paint 😎

Right on, I will do that. Anything else planned for yours? I believe I have a near identical spec that should be arriving in a couple months. I'll make sure to keep up with your build

Check out and subscribe to my YouTube Channel for updates as I post a lot of M240i related tips, reviews, updates etc

Channel is - Awtobahn

I was thinking of the front splitter at some point, but that requires coding from BMW as well and it's pricey so I'll wait a bit for that one. I may lower it and put spacers at some point.

I'll definitely sub so I can check out your progress. Most of the BMW parts I have seen are expensive. The spoiler is the only thing I'd really splurge for. Michigan roads would eat the splitter lol.

The price of the spoiler keeps increasing so I'd get it asap if you can.

Factory installed Spoiler

@Awtobahn looks great and probably saved you a bunch of money over a factory-installed one!

Here is my factory-installed one. I think they balance and finish off the rear look of the vehicle nicely.

Looks great! I agree it makes the car look so much better. The backend is odd looking without it. I removed the xDrive badge as well.

Hi do you have a link to the correct tape ? I picked up my spoiler a couple of months back and hopefully will have a car in the next 4-6 weeks. I’d read the tape wasn’t great with this spoiler but figured I’ll give it a go before trying the stuck forever bmw adhesive

Don't use the BMW adhesive trust me. I used the 3M tape and adhesive promoter and it feels glued for sure. Everyone I know used the 3M.

Just search on Amazon for 3M automotive tape. Get the skinny one. It's red and make sure you use the adhesive promoter as well. Sold separately

How much does it cost if added to one's build?

I think it's around $750 in the US.

Sorry only just saw your reply. Tape ordered. Any idea which adhesive promoter, seem to be a number of options. My black m240 badge arrived today amongst a number of other parts

The spoiler looks really good!

I'd black out the M240i badge since you have the Shadowline package with black wheels. The chrome badge looks a little out of place next to all the black accents and carbon fiber spoiler now.
