F10 Sun Roof Wind Deflector?

mikekilpatrick · 04-07-2015, 12:04 AM

Has anyone successfully found a sunroof wind Deflector for a 2011-2013 BMW 550? Well, 528, 535 or 550 actually. Really didn't want to put one on that uses 3m tape and it has been next to impossible to find something that bolts on for better security at high speeds. I have been successful in the past of using wind deflectors made for other cars which also fit the car that I own.

Has anyone found one that fits the 2013 550 body style?

Much appreciated in advance.

I found one that uses 3m tape, but I wanted a bolt on solution.

I notice the rubber jagged type material that pops up a little when the sun roof is open is why you don't need a sun roof visor. You don't hear as much wind going over.

Those are useless. I have had a wind screen on every car I have owned for the past 15 years. At 70 mph, you can drive with the roof open and barely get any noise coming into the car with a wind deflector. The pop up OEM strip just does not do much of anything over 20 mph.
