How easy are these to fit?

Doddle ! You should get a tube of black gunk that it thats a seperate part number and there are two recesses in the bits of the spoiler that touch the boot lid to squezze the gunk into. When the mastic has cured , you would need a hammer and chisel to renove it !
just hold the spoiler down with masking tape while its drying and don t be tempted to drive for 12 hours.
Not many on here seem to go for this mod but I think it looks pukka on my stratus grey

I like the spoiler, had mine for 3 years and the body shop fitted it at the same tie as it was sprayed. that way it was all their fault!

as you say, some do, some don't. I prefer the Alpina Z4 boot lid spoiler, however they were way too expensive for my tastes.

Glad to hear they are easy to fit but nothing looks worse in my opinion. Personally I have avoided buying cars on the basis of having a spoiler fitted (it's not called a spoiler for nothing...) but I understand that this is down to individual taste.

Whatever you do though, don't go drilling in to the metalwork. Good luck.

im a great fan of spoilers but not sure on the z4 it does it any favours so have avoided the temptation, someone commented once that the z4 bootlid was already spoiler shaped for a purpose so doesnt need one.
