I saw 99WDP's ride today, looked very nice. You might send him a note and see if he has a picture of it.
I think there might have been one in the gallery too, I was looking but the java script to enlarge the pictures wasn't working.
Whoops you replied as I was replying, I was thinking the moonroof visor, never mind.

The picture of that 5 series is not clear; but I think what you meant is "Rear Window Air Deflector".
Usually SUVs and Vans have that installed; hard to find it on a regular car.

AC Schnizter calls it a roof spoiler...the purpose of this thing is to provide a more stylish look (in other words, useless 
) whereas an deflector on a hatchback/SUV is designed to prevent stuff from landing on you rear glass by killing the suction area
can anyone tell me the width on the top of the rear glass on a 5 series? thanks!
does this picure help?

I was thinking of doing the same thing. Hamann has one that is actually raised a bit more and looks awesome. I guess all we need to do is find the width of the 5 series window.

Go on down to your local Bimmer dealer, tape measure in hand... and measure a 5er window. 
That will surely get a dealers attention. But, if you told them you might buy the spoiler from them, they shouldn't mind. Heck, they may have one in stock. Keep us posted, Yee.

I was down at CEC today...man...talk about people with attitude....anyway...I wasn't there for that, so...
the 5 series AC Schnizter roof spoiler DOES NOT fit our TL...
the piece have sharp corners on top. I'm gonna go and try the 3 series(E46) ones on Monday...I saw a picture of a roof spoiler for E36...and looks like it may fit our TL...but the place doesn't have it.
