4th Gen Legcy sedan - Comparing 2 Ebay roof spoilers


Dispatch20

Recommended Posts

I decided to buy two roof spoilers, to see which one I preferred. I took a bunch of pictures. Both spoilers appeared to be decent quality, but I was particularly impressed by the bmwoemshop painted finish.

 

Seller: bmwoemshop

Origin: Taiwan

Cost: $79 shipped

Material: Polyurethane Rubber

Painted: Yes

I'll probably install the painted QSM one. It just looks better than a black rubber, or plastidipped roof spoiler.

 

See below for pics. The spoiler was barely held on with some painters tape just for taking these pictures. The fit on both will be much better when they are glued down permanently.

I was thinking of getting one of these. Wonder if he does DGM

I think they do every factory color (for all makes) except white pearl colors. You just send a message with the paint code, and the Taiwanese children are put right to work.

 

QSM is "AK7" paint code.

Thanks for the link to the painted one, i have the rubber one but i wanted it painted. I just have to get the spoiler king one which is attached with epoxy off.

I bought an auto be more involved in my uninvolvedness . 200k+ Club

If you can't blind them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit.

Both are nice! I like the unpainted one a little more, personally.

 

How about some pics from some distance?

 

Of both spoilers, or just one? Maybe I'll take a video from a distance walking towards/around the car so you can get a better feel of the perspectives. I always find pictures of spoilers to be very difficult to judge.
