Adding on a few bits!

I have a 330e M-Sport in Portamao Blue. I don't like the chrome grille so I ordered a gloss black one. I decided to finish off the sporty look of the front by ordering a gloss black splitter as well. I can't decide whether or not to stop there or go for:

1. gloss black rear boot spoiler plus diffuser,
2. carbon fibre look rear boot spoiler plus diffuser
3. none of them

Any opinions are much appreciated. I used to think spoilers in anything but body colour were naff but now I'm not so sure.

Cheers in advance!

I have a 330i Msport Portimao Blue as well and have the gloss black front splitter, gloss black front grill and a gloss black rear spoiler on order. I personally didn't like the larger CF rear spoiler and wanted to keep the look consistent with gloss back. Will install everything Sunday.

Still debating if i should get the gloss back diffuser. Have already spent too much on cosmetic stuff. Maybe in a couple of months.

Carbon fibre boot spoiler and carbon diffuser if you can!

Yes, but there's extra charge to get the matt spoiler painted to the color of your choice.

I sat on the fence for a while too, but finally bit the bullet.... was looking at the Gloss black diffuser but found a great deal on a M Perf. Carbon, so glad I did, what a difference 😀
Already have gloss black grille as have a 330i with M Sport Plus pack, and also have the Front splitter in the garage too waiting to go on, just need some decent weather....on the verge of a CF spoiler too!

Hi Phippsy81;

Great picture Love it !!

I just got my Portimao Blue 330i M Sport 3 weeks ago

Would you mind posting more pictures of your carbon diffuser at different angles please so I can get an idea of what it looks like.
I am really thinking of getting one.
Just difficult to visualize with my colour.

I think the carbon one is the one to go for over the gloss black as it has the vertical fins which looks meaner.

Still on the fence with the black versus carbon fibre spoiler.
But I see you can also get carbon fibre exhaust tips !!

Thanks for your help

Hey firetitanx 👋🏼

Congrats on the car, I'm now at 12 months and still really enjoying mine!

I agree on the Carbon vs Gloss black, the extra fins make for more of an aggressive look IMO too, and I much prefer the Carbon spoiler too (now fitted)

Here are a few pics for you :

Hi Phippsy81

It looks so STUNNING !!! DELICIOUS

Thanks so much for posting !!

Now I have to save up for that setup.

Are your exhaust tips still silver or did you do something to them ?, as they look black
Have you thought about the carbon fibre exhaust tips , or can you not really see them
