While browsing ebay lately I noticed this spoiler with LED. This same vendor has it either painted or unpainted for the e39 5-Series BMWs.
I'm hesitant to pursue this item without some user feedback.
Curious about the quality and also how difficult to connect the LED portion.
No, Ken don't do it!! Just my opinion, but while I'm usually a fan of spoilers I think anything other than the M5 lip spoiler ruins the lines of the E39.

Thanks guys for the feedback. I didn't think that particular spoiler was too obtrusive though. Not like some of those I've seen that look like they were made in the basement and then bolted on!!
I also have a Chrysler Sebring LXi (1997). I like the way, when viewing it from the side, that the lines of the car start low at the front and get progressively higher as one goes toward the back. I thought I small spoiler, like the one mention above, would also give that same sort of visual illusion.
