Been almost 2 weeks waiting for a splitter. Dealer does not recommend changing the order to remove it?
Wtf. This is getting ridiculous.

My car was delayed 2weeks at VPC because of the CF splitter and the spoiler. I almost cancelled them, but am glad I didn't as they were well worth the wait. Your patience will be worth it!

Here's a few more of the spoiler and rear view. And apologies, I meant CF diffuser in my first post. Definitely worth waiting for the M Performance parts.

I posted about this a couple weeks ago. My car was delayed and I ended up removing my carbon fiber spoiler/mirror caps. The car showed up at the dealer 3 days later.

Nice! Does the diffuser affect the kick to open feature? If you got it on your m340

Did you have to get the M performance rear to get the diffuser? Or will it go right in the m340 bumper?

Correct you have to get both together, it won't fit the regular bumper. Also the folks here are spot on, my car was marinating at Port Hueneme for almost 2 weeks because of my M performance parts

Take note that they will not include the M-Perf gloss black lower tow hook cover if you opt for the M-Perf bumper. They just slap the original (gray?) one back on. I had to order it from overseas. Shipping costs more than the part.

That's just crazy 3 weeks, god damn. You did the right thing canceling, I would've done the same.

We are about to place an order and I reallllly want the M perf spoiler. But 3 weeks in ridiculous. What is the hold up? BMW should really have a more efficient port install process. I'm not sure we should add it.

The M Perf bits do spruce it up a bit (I think ) but need a better pic of the diffuser/ bumper. Hard in black with my iPhone.....

This is the M-Perf lower tow hook cover you need to finish off the rear M-Perf bumper. It's gloss black and it will sit flush with the M-Perf bumper.
