m3 lip spoiler for 330cic

I ORDERED A M3 LIP SPOILER FOR MY 2004 330CIC FROM MY BMW DEALER. IT CAME IN TODAY AND THE PART # IS FOR A SEDAN NOT A COUPE. IS THERE A DIFFERENCE AND WILL THE SPOILER FOR THE SEDAN FIT MY CAR? i NEED TO KNOW BEFORE I PAINT. I TEST FIT TODAY AND DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING WRONG BUT WANT TO BE SURE IT WILL WORK OR DO I RETURN FOR THE COUPE ONE. THANKS

first of all, your caps key must be broken, so pleas fix it

2nd as long as you test fit it, and it doesnt go over the edge of the trunk, or it doesnt look to short, (the length is the same as the length as your trunk)
and as long as it looks clean, i dont see a problem with it at all. just make sure you are satisfied with it, if you have any doubts though, send it back

Thought I replied to this earlier, but here it goes again!

Not offended in any way! I agree 100% that using all caps is quite annoying. I was just busting on you for not using any caps while busting on tigerfan for using all caps.

Sarcasm is just my defination of humor!

I don't think any feathers were ruffled, I'm sure redronin was trying to give you friendly some advice, and I was trying to do the same for him via sarcasm. One of the things members here need to realize is that we all come from different regions and backgrounds. Due to this, there is a few communication gaps that get people upset over absolutely nothing. This is a great forum to offer advice, share ideas, sell/buy parts and most of all HAVE FUN!

As a fellow FNG (f@#*ing new guy, for the few of those wondering) all I can recommend is to have thick skin for when you post something you wish you had thought through first, before posting. Just als the guy doing 179MPH while "a little tipsy" in his ///M with 3, possibly underage girls, in his back seat.

BTW my english/typing sucks also, I just try to use spell/grammer check whenever possible. As a career soldier, even though educated, my vocabulary usually consists of mostly four letter words.

If you read my first post I said I test fit and didn't see any problem but just wanted to make sure I had right parts.
