Which one do you guys like better? The Non-ACS style is starting to grow on me... I can cancel my order and switch it up.

ACS style is the best to my opinion. It fits right w the style of the car.

Where did you order from? Real ACS or aftermarket?

I think the auto couture one looks the best, it's a subtle touch that looks great:

almost certain the trunk on an e65 is the same as e66

I believe that the trunk of 750 is different from 745. Not so much to where you notice it but if you put something like a spoiler it wont fit. ACS e65 spoiler dont fit the E66 trunk.

patshah if you dont like your spoiler i'll buy it from you

They make a spoiler that's not a wrap around. Just fits on the upper lip on the trunk. Corner to corner like. Looks really clean and sharp.

Boing, you are correct, 745 trunk and 750 trunk are different. But I think the question was will the spoiler fit the e65 and e66 trunks the same. Are the trunks different on the 750 then on the 760 I think is the question. Unless I'm mistaken and in that case, ignore me.

the trunk we all know sure does look different but its shape is also slightly different

This one is apparently for a facelift E65/66. I love this spoiler. Anyone know where to get it? Googling "Auto Couture BMW 750i" doesn't provide much detail.

745 spoilers will NOT fit 750 spoilers, that is a fact.

E65 is regular wheel base and E66 is long wheelbase, I think some people are still confused and think E65=745 and E66=750. That is not true they are both E65/E66 it's just the i/Li that determine if it's 65 or 66.

any spoiler that fits an E65 745i will fit an E66 745Li, same with the 750. This leads me to be almost 100% sure that for the v12 there is no difference, it just matters if it's 02-05 or 06-08.

so again, for trunk spoilers, model year (02-05 745/760 versus 06-08 750/760) will be the determining factor in whether the spoiler fits, NOT whether it is i or Li

Auto Couture spoiler is so SEXY. That has been the one I have had my eye on for a very long time, but, like everyone else, I cannot for the life of me find it anywhere! I am starting to believe that (1)it is only for 06-08 and they don't make it for 02-05, and (2) you cannot just have the spoiler by itself, you have to get the whole body kit, which would cost....well, let's not talk about how much that would cost (half the resale price of our cars probably)

Is it just me, or does the Auto Couture spoiler look exactly like the Alpina B7 spoiler? That being said, Alpina B7 spoiler would likely be EXPENSIVE as hell too by itself. More than ACS spoiler.

As if ACS spoiler wasn't expensive enough....
