Maxton rear spoiler on 2008 "facelift"

I did say there were a few questions coming ;)

I really like the look of the Maxton rear spoiler lip but they list it as 2002-2006 pre face-lift.

Posed the question to them about it fitting a 2008 to be told "our parts are 3d scanned so can't guarantee it will fit".

So....has anybody fitted one to a face-lift z4 please? I can't believe that BMW changed the boot lid with a face-lift!

Cheers

I've got one sitting in the garage for my car. Bought it a couple of months ago but not 100% convinced I REALLY like it :roll: Photos of it are just resting in place :thumbsup: 20220128_164548.jpg20220128_164431.jpg20220128_164453.jpg
 
Thanks for the pics..... I think I may have to get one. Possibly the carbon finish.

Love that last image and will be stealing your trickle charge hook up idea! :thumbsup:

I ordered and paid for a rear spoiler 3 months ago, haven't heard a thing from them yet.

For me, that needs to be colour coded or on a black car.

Least of your worries the Supercharger under the bonnet now :thumbsup: :driving: :evil:

Go for it ! :D I have a Noco Genius charger so fed a shortened Noco extension in to the boot through the PDC cable grommet which conveniently is on the right rear panel close to the battery and connected it with the Noco piggyback connectors direct to the battery terminals. I re-soldered the connector back on t'other end and fed that under the bumper carrier to a little box section just inside the towing eye cover. Easy and very convenient :thumbsup:

It'll be staying gloss black as the front grilles, alloys, tailpipes and most of the interior are black also...bit of a theme going on :thumbsup:
Got a few more jobs to complete this week and then hopefully a supercharged test drive at the weekend :D
