Does the Maxton Design roof spoiler have any effect on how dirty det backend gets?
My F11 rear is always dirty

Nothing a spoiler can do about it. The back of the car creates negative pressure, causing air to get swirled towards it, depositing a lot of dirt. Your best bet is to ceramic coat it so cleaning is as easy as a simple power wash.

Hi friend.

Yes it does! Whenever I look at it, I shit myself and get a dirty back end because it's so pretty

Haha yeah nah, no difference. Its not big enough to shade from rain and stuff

Evaporator and side skirts going on in the next 2 days!

Have you considered getting the gasket material for the kidney grilles? P/N 51134819903. I added it and it really helps hide the gap between the bumper and the kidneys.

I can't seem to picture what you're talking about. Is it just rubber? Got pics?

It's a foam gasket material. It helps make the gap appear more seamless.

Hmmm very interesting. I didn't even know these existed. I'll consider it as I do like the look of that!

Thanks mate

Yea I only found out a bit ago when browsing realoem for a different item. It really helps make the aftermarket grilles look more OEM.

Apparently also helps cut down on wind whistling.

I can't wait to put it in. The steering wheel too

Bounceme · 01-02-2021, 12:05 PM

Does your car have Alcantara seats?
Mine do, and i also bought the alcantara wrap for the interior trim pieses, but the alcantara wrap is darker than the alcantara seats

I don't

What do Alcantara seats look like? Mine are just black leather. I would love a bucket seat outa the new F M cars!

Yeah the Alcantara is always a hit n miss. Try wrapping something as it might change colour after stretched a lil? The stuff i bought is very thin and "see-through". Not like wraps I've used before

It's a bit of a mongrel tbh

Steering wheel from a 6er LCI (wreckers)
Centre trim from an F80 (local seller)

Interesting to know i thought only the f10 complete kit would fit the f11

Gives me some more options to look for then now as the f10 are a fortune £600 just for a standard second hand one

Yeah the market for 5 and 6 is still much smaller than 1-4!

The airbag part number is the same across them though so that's universal. Make sure you get your region specific airbag. I assume you're in Europe so I believe US ones wont work as they are dual stage and yours/ours(aus) are single
