Awesome! I literally did this exact same thing on my 228i this afternoon. My fingers are hurting as I'm typing this, but the end result was well worth it. My dental floss count was 4! and wd40 helped tremendously removing the old adhesive.
@@Shundel A question I had a 240 convertible the spoiler from BMW was around $ 650 it was a little off I traded it the other day kept the spoiler ,do you know buy chance if it will fit a M2 I go to a racetrack in Ga there are alot of M2 thank you if you could give me an answer .
Great video. I sold my 2022 Supra and then wanted another but the mark up on the 2024 Supra is ridiculous. So I researched and bought a 2024 M240i x-drive. What an absolute bargain. 2024 Supra is $81k out the door. Got the BMW for $61 and love it. What a great car. Has more tech than the Supra and looks beautiful. I want to go with the bigger spoiler so thank you for the video 👍👍
Great video. I'm loving all the subtle cosmetic upgrades your doing. Just adds to the already subtle good looks of the 2 series. I'm liking this 'low end' model (if you can even call it that, LOL) more and more over the higher end ones.
I absolutely agree with you on the subtlety of this car. It's such a sleeper on the road until you put your foot down. And I hope to keep it that way with these small cosmetic changes. Always nice to hear your feedback, Stephen!
The 2 series is sick, I really want to get one in my opinion it is a much updated e46 but that is my opinion currently I am rocking a 2000 323i and I love it aswell
Is a 2 series expensive to maintain ? I don’t get the differences between the series. I know they just get bigger lol. And I’m familiar with the different models. I looked at a 1 series once & the guy said the 2 series are one of the most expensive to maintain. Which made me sad because I love them. But I don’t know the truth behind that. I know the 6 & 7 series are expensive to maintain. That’s obvious. I’d like a nice 2 series coupe. And they look good in blue. 3 series are too common. And I’d really only go for a 335D. But those are pretty rare.
Being my first BMW and still within the 4 year warranty/maintenance period.. I couldn't tell you! Hopefully someone else who has had the car longer than me can chime in. I agree though that most of the cars BMW makes nowadays are getting bigger by each generation and series. Luckily, the M235i/40i and M2 are still completely fun and tossable cars.
3M tape came with the spoiler when I ordered it. Other than that, you can pick up extra at almost any hardware store! Mine specifically was from Canadian Tire.
Is that the 1/2" wide 3M tape? I have the RW Carbon spoiler on the way for my M240i, but it doesn't come with tape. I found a 1/2" x 15 ft roll at Wal Mart that looks like it should lay down three strips and do the trick.
Thanks! It's all done. Ended up with a major blister on my finger from peeling off the OEM tape (even with a heat gun). Whole project took around 2.5 hrs. Picked up the car in April, so maybe my tape was more cured. It looks awesome though.
Shundel thanks Shundel. but I got a problem can you help me? plz watch this video. when Im using half clutch for parking my car , some wierd sound is came out. (I was put gear in to1st gear and reverse gear) th-cam.com/video/rXChVv89q5k/w-d-xo.html
@@midbestmtb3813 get the spoiler...it looks a lot better... i was...and am an idiot for saying that it didn't look good... i plan on getting the 2021 m2 to make amends..
I am watching videos about the M240i and the changes they invent to modify it. My friend, I found this exaggerated ... this spoiler. it got too big. I like the original more. Taste is taste.

Nice man! I think my fishing line was only BARELY stronger than dental floss in that case lol.

Excellent video, good to see it be so easy to remove the OEM spoiler, especially using WD-40 to remove the leftover adhesive.

Getting the old tape off is a nightmare.
Thanks for making this video--time to try it on my own ride!
That looks 1000 times better!!
Thanks! It really does! :)
Good thing you weren’t actually fishing with that line 😂
I prefer the OEM spoiler as with cars like that less is more I find but I’d prefer it in black as would look a nice contrast
Love your videos man, I have a black M240i. I’m getting the full M Performance carbon kit and exhaust installed, when I get back from Korea.
You need to use 20 to 30 pound test fishing line it won’t break
The 2 series is sick, I really want to get one in my opinion it is a much updated e46 but that is my opinion currently I am rocking a 2000 323i and I love it aswell
Yeah the proportions of the E46 are so similar to the 2 series! Such a great car.
Great video. If i don't have heat gun, can i use my hair dryer instead? Thanks.
Absolutely. It just takes a little bit more time to heat up but the end result is the same. Go for it!
Nice vid, picking up the spoiler tmr, damn i wanna know hows ur dinan mid pipe sound in person, u in rmd ?
Nope, not in Rmd. I'm actually surprised listening to it again in the video it sounds pretty true to life.
Good quality? Looked like 180 on Evs looks sharp
waxed dental floss works better and won't damage paint. You'll need lots of it
Great video. I've got a EB M240i and this is one of the mods I will be doing to my car. Where did you get the spoiler? Is this the Mperf one? Thanks!
Thank you. The EB looks so good and it's very eye catching when you see it on the roads. I got it the spoiler from ECS but it is not the MP one.
Shundel Thanks for the reply. I will have a look at their website.

Great vid. What is this kind of tape called??
Thanks! It is 3M double-sided tape.
Thanks for another great video. Great install. The spoiler looks amazing. Looking to get one for my car. Where did you get it from?
Thanks a lot! I got it from ECS :)
Can you link the tape you used?
3M tape came with the spoiler when I ordered it. Other than that, you can pick up extra at almost any hardware store! Mine specifically was from Canadian Tire.
Shundel thanks brother

I don't remember the width but it came with the spoiler. I'm sure 3 strips is more than enough. Good luck!
Thanks! It's all done. Ended up with a major blister on my finger from peeling off the OEM tape (even with a heat gun). Whole project took around 2.5 hrs. Picked up the car in April, so maybe my tape was more cured. It looks awesome though.
Hey would these fit on 228 or 235? Does anyone know if the trunk is the same size on all these models?
Yup it's the same chassis. Just just coupe. Not the cab version.
like the videos.Shundel, I found it late, but my car had no M badge on the side. Is the M badge missing in the 2018 model? Do you know about this?
Hmm the ones I have seen here have the M badges on the side :\
Shundel it’s so weird. i need to contact the dealer:(
Shundel can you check this video for me? th-cam.com/video/6683YPneNTE/w-d-xo.html this one doesn’t have m badge on the side aswell
Hmm my only guess is that different regions get slightly different variations of the car. All of the ones I have seen locally have the M badges on it!
Shundel thanks Shundel. but I got a problem can you help me? plz watch this video. when Im using half clutch for parking my car , some wierd sound is came out. (I was put gear in to1st gear and reverse gear)

Call me crazy...but I think it looks better without a spoiler..
crazy
Crazy
@@munguia84 Now i think it looks a lot better with the spoiler... what was I thinking..
pulldpin Looking at getting this spoiler and your comment cracked me up.
@@midbestmtb3813 get the spoiler...it looks a lot better... i was...and am an idiot for saying that it didn't look good... i plan on getting the 2021 m2 to make amends..
Is there really that big of a difference between a m235i and 240i?
yep
As far as this install is concerned, no. As far as the motors are concerned, yeah that B58 in the M240 is much more stout.
Yea the g42 body has dif rear so it needs bmw OEM m performance carbon fiber spoiler which they have but don’t sell it with the US 2022 m240i model
I am watching videos about the M240i and the changes they invent to modify it. My friend, I found this exaggerated ... this spoiler. it got too big. I like the original more. Taste is taste.
I can respect that. Too each their own :)
Awesome job man. How did u know where to perfectly line up the spoiler?
using eyes i guess?
@@mhvdm 😂 lol.
How has the spoiler held up? Have you noticed any bubbles or discoloring of the clear coat?
It's held up as good as the day I installed it. I just checked and there are no cosmetic issues from what I can see!
Where did you get the spoiler?
I got it from ECS Tuning
Shundel link?
I updated the video description with the link!
Shundel thanks man! Gonna order one for my 230i. Wanted the link since I’m in Canada too and couldn’t find one that’ll ship here.
but it’s not carbon fibre....? ....what an absolutely moronic vein waste of time.
and no it does not look better unless you have the mind of a child
I respect that you have an opinion but you don't have to be malicious about it. Bad day?
