Bling. The CF spoiler makes the car look "complete". The rest of the pieces far less so.
The OEM CF is functional, but be realistic, only barely on the 5.

Cf1 decreases lift by 75%. Per mirza it is probably not wise to only put on the rear without also putting on the front as you’d be pushing the rear down without pushing the front causing it to lift more.

I've seen that statement (not wise to do only spoiler) thrown around, but I can't for the life of me find the actual quote/source.
Seems like it's reading too far in to this
Carbon fiber PN database.
The front will be a little harder to source all parts. Back was very easy. Got mine done already.

What is "higher speeds" even? And does "snappier" mean not wise? I'm not too concerned about it for my purposes anyway, the fastest corner at the track out by me is taken at <100 mph

Ever have a car go light in the front end while you're doing +140MPH? I have. It's a very unsettling feeling.

I wanna say there was a post by him in one of the FB groups too, but it is a lot more difficult to search those for it lolI've seen that statement (not wise to do only spoiler) thrown around, but I can't for the life of me find the actual quote/source.

In my limited experience so far I've had no undue side effects from spoiler only. That is in no way shape or form intended to contradict Mirza. It's just not clear to me under what circumstances that no CF1 splitter is problematic.
Ultimately I got it for bling, but I do track my car as well, so it's providing some impact there (whether positive or otherwise). It feels totally planted and safe at 145.

If UPS is to be believed, mine will actually be here by Wednesday this week. And it will, in fact, beat my 5BW which is still sitting at the train station in Michigan.
Happy to report I’ve gotten about 30 of the spoilers built and delivered so far. Shooting to have almost all orders fulfilled by Memorial Day.

A thing arrived today. My garage has shitty lighting, so the photo isn't great. But it's here and it actually does look fantastic in person. Thanks @Terrance Sig!
Now to get the car to put it on...
