    Update:

    Good News: I found a supplier who sells the materials in 5gal and 55gal drums - as opposed to the previous one who only sold them in 1gal containers.

    Bad News: The 5gal is only $3 less per gallon :loco: and each spoiler needs more then a gallon of material so this really does nothing to the cost per product.

    EDIT: Better News: just talked to a supplier who sells the materials for about 20% less per 5gal container, and 30% less if I purchase 5 - 5gal containers. and so on.

    Their material is also more flexible and shatterproof.

          Still trying to locate an e28 Mtec. Anyone selling?

          I got all the material samples in, and the urethane plastic feels good. It's lightweight and easily sandable.

            FWIW, i vote for the E28 reproduction. I prefer the overlap onto the quarter panels, and the grooves on the lip of the spoiler.

                        Is the rubber currently painted?
                        Pictures?
                        $?

                          I still dont get why your making e28 repro's. Kids get e28 spoilers b/c they're more readily available and cheaper than the genuine mtech 1 spoilers.

                                And you don't have to drill extra holes in your trunk this time.

                                And they'll fit like they were made for the 3 series.
