I hear that 99% of the m5 style trunk lip spoilers aren't close to the original at ALL. has anyone bought one from ebay that was exactly like the OEM one? The only one i kind of trust is the one Bekkers is selling for $30, but they quoted me another $30 for shipping :confused. TIA.

I personally can tell the difference so I just bought the OEM one from the dealer for $100.

I bought a urethane M5 type spoiler from e-Bay but, I don't have an OE one to compare it with.
It seems to look exactly like an original and it is made from urethane so it is flexible enough to follow the curve of the trunk lid.
Here are some of the ones I just brought in from overseas, they are made out of rubber and they are flexable and you can shape it all the way to the edge of your trunk. I have the regular OEM size and these new one that is thicker that I am having painted these weekend. I will post pics when I have it back and installed.
Here is the rubber one next to the OEM one.

And here is the thin one next to the thicker one.

I have an Ebay replica one that is fiberglass and a little thicker than the OEM. It has the appropriate slight curve to fit properly, so that's why I took a chance on it. Happy so far
