    Does anyone still sell Mtec1 Spoilers?

    I can't find anyone who does - not even knock offs that aren't fiberglass.

    Any guidance here? I'd like to get my hands on one to attempt a mold.

    check out the group buy section. CF or FG replicas are available from eurostop.

      I may be able to replicate Mtec1 spoilers in rubber and I need one to make a mold from. I'd prefer an actual Mtec rather then those Fiberglass ones. Their fitment looks off and the edges aren't very crisp.

            If you will send me one of your rubber replicas, I might consider letting you use mine for making the mold. It's just sitting on the bed in my spare room right now. collecting dust.

                It's hard for me to promise a replica since this is just a test run to see how it comes out.

                I'm going to need to experiment with molding and rubber compounds to get the right densities. I mean technically I only need to borrow one, so if anyone would be willing to let me - I could pay for shipping both ways.

                    Euro Stop's are made from Fiber Glass.

                    These would be cast in rubber with a urethane insert and retain every aesthetic detail from the stock Mtec1 spoiler - including the grooves in the lip.

                      What's the feeling on 5series Metec1 spoilers?

                      Personally I like the overhang on the edges more then the 3series version. I've found one for sale but I want to know if there would be more or less demand for reproduced 5series mtec spoilers as opposed to 3series versions.

                      5 series mtec1 (overhanging edges):



                      3 series mtec1:

                        if youre going to make a mold start with a new spoiler. it will be worth it. i sell them
                        it may be possible to mold in the cock n balls logo on the bottom

                          id rock a repro if it looks right, dont know about the cock'n'balls logo though

                          edit: forgot to mention 5 series looks better imo, BUT if you could make it have the 3 series bolt pattern i bet youd get more buyers (which you seem to have thought of before my edit)

                          Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.

                            I'd be interested in acquiring a repro 5 series mtech spoiler at some time... in my opinion it does look a lot better then the 3 series ones.

                              I could use a lot more opinions, so everyone chime in if you could.

                              I'd have to see one in person, but I may be able to relocate the mounting points of the 5series wing to the 3series location.

                              This is still a feeler to check what the demand is on these and if it's even worth trying to reproduce better quality repos.
