I actually might return it. I was looking at it today and the fitment is a bit weird. There isn't contact with the 3m tape and the trunk all the way around the spoiler. I contacted the seller right now to see if I can return it. I'm a bit worried it might fly off while driving aggressively haha. RW carbon has a carbon rear spoiler as well that I'm probably going to buy instead of this one. I'll leave the link here if the one that I have. And here are some more pics of the spoiler. It's a shame the fitment is slightly off, I really love the way it looks.

Can't beat free, and I get it, it's a boat ride, but it's a bit like putting your Z4 on a truck & then driving the truck instead of driving the Z4 - why wouldn't you want to drive 20 miles in your new Z4????

(Just trying to be funny, not a serious post.)

Update: The fitment of the carbon wing is okay, had some shops look at it and they said everything was fine. I also installed a carbon front lip from RW Carbon. It's subtle but adds some serious road presence/anger to the car. Here are some pics of the whole car.

Mixitt Yes I spent bit too much USD 25000+, I had to change brake system because after first day of track, stock disk deformed because of overheating. Also full exhaust system is for more power, since we only get 340hp... But now its faster than M2 Comp!

Mondolemite Most of them are non-branded tabao find. You might find it in Ebey as well in US. Finish of carbon is pretty good but fitting is not so great. But they are way cheaper than unreasonably pricy brands like Ac schnitzer. Only branded carbon cosmetics I have is carbon engine cover by Eventuri.

Honestly thank you so much for posting this, I have an alpine white and I'm going crazy because the aftermarket body styling for this car is near impossible! Really great inspiration

No problem, comrade! There are millions of aftermarket body styling reference for supra and none for Z4 hahaha.

G29 has rather shorter wheelbase for its car length, thus car looks bit chubby, especially in white color. So blackout decal on the bottom is meant to make the car look longer and agile. BMW pushed for a longer wheelbase roadster feel like old Z4 but Toyota side requested shorter wheelbase for better handling...

It is a good car, with the right tune, it easily outperform any of its class in the tracks! annnd its convertible :P

Tapping on the lock button right after locking turns off the internal alarms (alarm light lights for 2 seconds). I think that includes the motion alarm.

Anyone else know for certain?

Does the front spoiler lower the front end?. Does it reach the bottom side of the 2 plastic air diverters located under the front bumper?
I sometimes ear these plastic parts scratching against the floor in some steep parking ramps.

It does reach the 2 plastic air diverters. So yes, attention is required on steep ramps.

Nice mirror caps, are you satisfied with the fitment? If yes, where did you buy them? Thanks!
