Hello, I recently picked up this 2022 G30 M Sport, I think it looks bare without a spoiler, what do you think would look best on this M Sport with this Phytonic Blue color.

I'm in my 50s and don't want to over do it, just something that gives it a sportier look from the rear.

I appreciate you all and thank you in advance for any feedback.

I went with a body color one from eBay. Color was pretty close to match.

DNYC1919 Very nice! I will definitely check it out, did you consider a black one to go with the black trim? Either would look great I'm sure. Thank you for sharing sir!

I didn’t want to go too sporty. Already have the black wheels, colored brakes, blacked out roof. To keep it a little more classy but sporty went with body color spoiler.

Did it come with 3M tape? Is that how you attached it. My previous experience with attaching a spoiler on another car was frustrating as the edges kept lifting, so I returned it. I see yours lays flat over the top bend, which probably less problematic and no worry about the sides popping up? .

It came with tape. I didn’t do it myself as when I got the spoiler unlucky a car scratched my driver door so I had to get it painted. The body shop put the spoiler on for me. But it lays flat, had it on for 3 years and no issues.

Stock OEM spoiler or equivalent aftermarket in your body color will do the trick in terms taking the edge off and giving it a touch of sportiness.

It's really easy installing a spoiler on a car that does not have one to remove first. 3M automotive adhesive tape, 3M adhesive promoter and a roll of painters tape for marking out where it will sit before securing. Creating a rip cord with the red tape backing will make it super easy to install correctly.

Me too (from RW). Were you able to buff that trunk? Looks rough.

Not fully, although it looks better now. I need/want a full detail plus some paint correction. I’ll likely do it after this winter season.

Did you do that damage trying to remove the original tape? A paint correction by a pro should help. I only missed the old tape with the eraser wheel a few times which left some scuffs. I had a paint correction and ceramic a few months after and my detailer got the few I had out.

The only lines/scuffs now are outline from the original spoiler and a few scuffs from the wheel

I bought this car used although low mileage 24k it doesnt appear the previous owner cared much about keeping up appearances. I feel like i need a good paint correction and ceramic for the whole car… I see swirls in other parts. Not overall bad, but definitely annoying.

Actually, you have the Pro and I have the CS. The CS sits exactly where the OEM one does. When you commented on marks where the original one was, I was puzzled. Now that I look closer, you have the Pro. They are very similar, just that the Pro sits on the edge of the trunk.

Got you on the paint condition. A paint correction and a ceramic will do wonders, trust me. It will look like new paint. I bought my 2003 Jet Black E39 in 2018. It had never been corrected. Swirls and micro scratches everywhere. I had a multi step paint correction done and I could not believe the results.

Ah thats right! I actually think I might like your style better. Especially since it sits atop like the former. We’ll see, so far so good - I was worried about if tape would hold and it does so thats good.

That E39 looks amazing! I’ll definitely have to splurge on the multi-step correction.

Hi Joe, where did you get your spikier from? Thanks.

RW Carbon, I would link it for you, but this site blocks RW linking.

I bought one of these and attempted twice at an install both times the edges kept lifting, so I gave up and took it off. I'm afraid of buying another brand. I need one that sits above of the top curve of the lid, meaning it has to be flat on the lip, not hugging the curve, right?

I know exactly what you mean. Aftermarket ones are prone to lifting so its hit or miss. I went with the Pro version from Autotecknic.
I think OEM might be even more flush to prevent the lifting.

If you want one that sits atop the lid then you definitely are looking for the version like Joe’s
