Rear spoiler

Just picked up my x6 50i over the weekend. Alpine white with every option possible. I've owned alot of nice cars but this is by far the best one. Does anyone know where to get a trunk and roof spoiler that look and fit good without having to spend a $1000 for each little piece. Thank You

If you're looking for a discreet looking spoiler, I had something very similar to this on my prev SUV:

It's not as functional as a bigger spoiler but looks good and believe or not, I gained about .5 mpg with that little thing on my FX35.

here's another image from another seller:


Just search for "bmw x6 lip spoiler" and you'll find it.. The spoiler has a thin layer of molding tape under it. You just warm it a bit with a heat gun, align and press on the trunk. The one I had on my FX stayed there for 2 years in snow, rain etc and didn't even nudge..

If you want to go more expensive you can opt for lumma's lip spoiler.

I saw those listings on ebay. I just don't know if I trust something coming over from Taiwan. Then again it is cheap enough to not care if it doesn't work out. I put a spolier on my CLS, and it was really easy.

Obviously, it won't create as much downforce as a regular trunk spoiler but I think it's about the same thing as Lumma's on that link. Here it is on my FX:
