AC Schnitzer roof spoiler

[xtremecro]

Any one have this on their car? I just ordered a trunk lip and roof spoiler. Just curious for roof

Hmmm... I haven't seen one around here xtremcro...

Looking forward to pics when you get it. Some of the shots of cars I've seen are zooming away or from impossible angles to make an opinion on how they look. Here's one that I saw popped up on e46fanatics:

You planning on color matching or going black or something else entirely?

I've seen one in person. It's 'OK', depending on what other visuals you have on your car. It could look good if you match it with the right visual mods, but usually looks out of place on a completely stock car.

It will be color matched. And only other mod is clear corners. R/c/r tails coming soon as well as ae

Roof Spoilers are for cars with an actual raised deck lid spoiler...It helps guide the air flow directly onto the spoiler to improve downforce at high speeds. I really think they look tacky and are anything but useful on a stock e46. I'd skip this mod.

I had one of those for a minute. Got it in, held it up to my car and said.......umm no! It is now collecting dust in the corner of my garage. I even had the CSL boot on the car at the time and it still didn't look right.

But hey, to each his own. Some cars look good with em for some reason. Other cars, like mine, no. But it may have been because I had the bike rake on when I tried on the spoiler

Hey bullfrogs. Maybe you can lemme give it a shot? :)

Do it. I think they look classy. I've seen many e46s with roof spoilers.

I will do it. If I like it is on! I try to tune out peoples opinions if I listened to every I'd be bankrupt. Now I need angel eyes. I'm scared to open them up. And I better off buying a new set from depo?

No sir, factory Xenons are probably a better bet. This reduces the issues you can have with the Bi-Xenon function of the lights, unless you don't have Xenons. If you don't, then the P46's are a good upgrade. Plus, AE's by themselves are cheaper than a whole new headlight upgrade.

Opening up the lights isn't a big deal. It's super easy for sedans. If you had a coupe, then you'd be running for the hills, though, as those are sealed units. For the sedans, the lenses come right off.

thanks sir! i will just buy a set of angel eyes and wire em up!

I really wanted one only because it would go with my ACS front lip. I haven't got one yet and I do have an M3 rep on the trunk so idk.

Funny, I was planning on getting a roof spoiler as well, you beat me to it and this thread! I figured most guys on here wouldn't be fans but I think they look smooth. You'll have to take pics when you get it on so I can see exactly what it will look like on a silvery grey ZHP! I was gonna get this one, and it's on sale now too.

Angel eyes are my favorite upgrade, I got the Orion V2's through Umnitza and I love em. Good price, easy install and they look mean!
