Im looking at some of the recent pics of the m5 spoiler mounted on the CL-S and I must say it does improve the look at least a little bit. I would much rather have the sema but since thats not available I was actually considering trying it out...except I have some questions

1- How much $$$ and where to get this spoiler unpainted?/

2- I have seen replicas for $60 on ebay is it worth it or cheap knock-off ?

3- for the people with the spoiler does it fit like OEM or is it a bit small. Judging by the pics it seems a bit too small but overall not bad.

4-How long do you think the 3m tape will hold it in place not like the door sills

5-whats the total price for the mod painted and mounted ??

 

I can't really answer any of your questions, but I think it looks great, particulary on that Blue CL that was is MattG's post.

 

it looks awesome in person. it fits perfectly. it will last the life of the car if installed correctly.

thats what i gathered looking at Brians car today.

 

its too small and hardly noticeable... i dont have a preference for it... no dislikes, no likes

 

I don't have the link to the site right now where I ordered mine... but they sell the real M5 spoilers, not the knock-offs.

The spoiler itself is a bit small.. its more for people who didn't want a spoiler in the first place, but want to address the sloppiness of our trunk problem. If you want something more noticeable, this might not be for you.

The 3M tape I order from the site works great, and like Matt said, only if installed correctly. And the spoiler fits just right.

I think the spoiler, paint and install cost me $200 total. Hope this helps.

 

Installed one on my silver CLS and love it.Paid 139.00.Had a friend paint.Gave me some tape too.

 

post pics og.

 

is there any difference b/w the m5 and the m3 spoiler?

 

what about the ones on ebay for 60 bucks? im kinda tempted to go for those but dont know about em.

 

don't go fer that shit on ebay

 

I've had nothing but trouble when buying cheap knock-offs off ebay...

 

Street Effectz was using M3 spoliers a few years ago. At a PAA meet, I borrowed one from him and put it on my black CL. I really liked the look. I posted the picture awhile back but it was stored on photopoint which is now bye-bye. I'm not sure I still have it.

 

I found 'em:

 

 

 

Too small a spoiler in my opinion. I have the Acura spoiler and I like it. Not to high, just right. In the pics I can hardly notice the M5 spoiler. Maybe it is better in person. If you are the type of person that hates the Acura spoiler then the M5 is a nice way to add an accent to the back of the car IMO.

 

BTW, the spoiler is pretty cheap but the paint is what is expensive.

 

Too puny - IMHO.

 

where can you get that spoiler?

 

Its better than the factory spoiler IMO

 

Wow you really dug up an old thread. I thought lou dumped the CLK for another CL for second.

 

I just put my lip on my car, it fits good. I bought a replica off ebay for like 45 bucks shipped and it was painted for 52, the only problem with it is I didn't see it before it got painted and there are injection lines on the back, i would have had them sanded off first. You can only see it up close, when i get my new hood, ill have them sand and paint it agian... but i like it better than the OEM one and it breaks the trunk up a little.

 

its sweet IMO better then the acura one, and it looks sporty

 

much better than OEM spoiler IMO

 

funny how old thread's get dug up....m5 is the way to go

 

How do I post pics....ive never done that before....thanks

 

not a fan... i like the stock one....
