Seen this at a friends place. Looks to be aftermarket, but was old, perhaps period correct.
I do not know much about front spoilers.

Is there anyone that recognizes this one?
Seems to be mounted under the front chin, compared to most that wrap up and over the front chin part.

Looks very similar to an Alpina Type 1 version……
read this forum article.
I have pics of very similar Alpina spoilers, but not with both ‘air flow holes’ and the central cutout for lifting the car front the front/ for air flow to the oil pan…

Anyone know this air dam?

I really like the air dam on this coupe. It is slightly different than the alpina "chin" spoiler. Does anyone know where to purchase one? I've checked the usual sources (coupeking, W&N, zaprace) without any luck?

Agreed. At best this is a copy of 'Apina' style (per there website) -- Also the center 'hump' does not look the same but a closer eye will be able to tell if both spoilers are indeed a match.

Comparing the black spoiler from my 1st post, it does match to the one on the red car, and I think also the white repro from Jaymic (=zaprace?). Anyone knows the origin of the red car?

Does the small sticker on the spoiler in the original post tell anything about it's possible Alpina origins?
 
Good eyes Erik,

Seems like they are mixing and matching pictures...time for the expert detectives.....
