When do you think you'll have your car fully finished?

After inspection quality wise is spot on! Carbon weave pattern is pretty consistent. No blemishes or imperfections that I can find. Overall, very pleased with the product! I would recommend this! Install will probably be this weekend when I'm off and I'll post some install pictures than

I'm still negotiating on the carbon fiber side skirt extensions/M5 side skirts but no response yet? Probable another 3 weeks for the carbon fiber rear skirts to be done. Once I get everything in I'll end up dropping the skirts/rear bumper and roof spoiler off to paint. It's getting there slowly but surely KWv1 coilovers next month!

Looking at the inside, I'm wondering is it made of some kind of plastic with a CF overlay?

Probably... my last Vorsteiner replica looked the same way

So after doing a test fitment with the 3m tape I feel that maybe because the wing sits or hangs pretty far off the trunk it feels like it's going to fall off and not as sturdy. You press on the edge of the wing and I can feel it give a bit. I'm sure it'll stay but I'll feel more confident if I go with the Betalink Adhesive. Its $34 bucks from getbmwparts.com but they want $13 bucks for shipping! anyone know where else I can order from that offers free shipping?

I personally wouldn't use any type of adhesive that bonds permanently to the car. That means a respray would be required down the road if you ever want to change the look or sell the car.

I have the double sided tape that you can get from O'reilly's for $1.50 and my spoiler has stayed on through multiple washes, rainy days, etc (even at 130mph+ multiple times)

You can get Betalink at any BMW Dealer, however, like I said, if you ever change spoilers it will remove paint, in chunks.

Was able to order it from another BMW dealership with free shipping! I'm wondering if I should do the same with the roof spoiler or because it's on glass am I better off using 3m tape?
