We decided to buy some cheap carbon pieces online for our BMW E90 335i's and serve as the guinea pig for you guys.

And I feel like this Channel is really helping me the best because most of the other videos I see don’t really give me options on what to choose and somtimes they don’t source what they use and it’s annoying

    Maybe that shark fin cover is for like say the E93. I don't know if it's smaller. But it's on the trunk so maybe it is. Too bad that lip won't fit my 328i E93.

  • @rushcustoms6202
    @rushcustoms6202 3 года назад +2

    There are two sizes for shark fin covers. 180mm and 193mm. Some lci cars have 180 and some have 193. You must measure yours before ordering from anywhere. I've also seen a pre lci e92 and pre lci e90 have the 180mm. BMW was weird and didn't keep it uniform like most f series vehicles who use the same same shark fin.
    I hope that helps you on why it did not fit.
    I've installed some auto tecknik 193mm and theirs don't fit that great unfortunately.

    If the CF trunk was plug & play with all the hardware, i would prefer that, but since he had to modify it so much its a NO for me even if it looks miles batter!
    Sooner or later when change it back to sell the car or something, the lights and etc will not fit as before... just my opinion, maybe me a more expensive/quality one will have all of that 🤷‍♀️

    The thing which “scares” me or makes not wanting to put one of those stick on spoilers with double sided tape is the possibility if it going flying, if I decide to go down to Germany and the Autobahn.
    So I’m probably just going to stick to the OEM stuff or OEM like stuff (with a TÜF certificate).

    Lol I bought the shark fin “cover” off eBay and complained that it didn’t fit and even sent pictures to them showing them that it was way too small to fit on the antenna cover and they apologized and said they would send me a new one but when I got it in the mail it was identical to the first so I just took the entire original cover out and used heavy duty double sided tape in every corner to tape it down. I really didn’t think it would stay on my car for long but figured I can put the original one back on plus I have another of these carbon fiber covers. But it’s actually been on my car for over a year and hasn’t came off my car, even at 170mph and through touch less car washes with high pressure sprayers countless times 😂😂😂
