    conflicted!!

    I have a factory spoiler for a 1991 318i. Have it ready to mount. I will have to drill 5 holes in the rear deck lid. Ouch. Just had it painted and hate to do it but I like the look. Any opinions will be appreciated. attached pic of two cars: one with, one without. thanx, mike( the 74 yr old in Mapleton who is having a blast with this car)

      Take lots of measurements to ensure you get it centered.

                  Plus it makes a nice handle for opening and closing the trunk

                      If you don't want to drill holes, you can remove the studs and apply some 3M double sided tape to it. Just make sure the surface you're applying it to is very clean!

                          What about using 3m double sided tape?

                                      Why not get a second trunk, that's what I did but Alpine white II is a lot easier to find.

                                          Pretty sure Austin has made himself a house out of zinno body panels.

                                              Agreed the e30 spoilers look clean. Not really one for having the spoiler not be bodymatched though, but your car can pull it off

                                                      Spoiler it is!! I like the 3M tape suggestion. On my way to town to pick some up. You guys are spoiling this old man.
