Looking to obtain a genuine M Perf M2 CS boot lid spoiler; anyone know of a possible UK supplier?

Can import but would prefer to deal in UK

Thanks

Fair response; there is a view that UK ADs will only supply if a CS vin is quoted. Have a query out with an M specialist; will see what they say

And the computer said no. Happy to sell you the wheels but not the body parts...

Now sourced; big thanks to IND in Illinois for very swift and easy supply. Turned up in 5 days very robustly parcelled… just sat atop the original lip in the second pic, hence a bit high off the surface.

Heat gun and fishing line at the ready…

Really wary of damaging the paint/clear coat- you reckon safe enough?

Certainly no tape provided but the moulding has channels for tape… the BMW installation guide states tape and beta link.

Will not be happy if it lifts!

Okay, took advantage of the heat today naturally softening the glue and the original lip is off. Tape/glue residue gone too… WD40 soak and a thumbnail soon lifted it; not as bad as I was expecting.

The CS gurney sits very close indeed on the boot lid, really can’t see there should be any issues getting it to hug when fitting. Will pop it on tomorrow.
