Looking for a bike rack that will fit over stock spoiler, can anyone recommend one? I know there are some bike riders on here!

Trailer Hitch Bike Rack
Look into getting a trailer hitch and a hitch bike rack attachment. This will keep your bike/s clear away from the body of your car and the possibility of body damage. There are some good threads on this if you search archives for "trailer hitch". You just DIY bolt the hitch to your car.

Thats hideous!! Just remember that it will be almost impossible to open your trunk with this god-awful apparatus attached and bike on-board. Also any hooligan with a harbor freight pocket knife will soon be molesting your precious bike after he slashes through those wimpy straps while you're inside starbucks waiting for your venti double no-whip mocha frappachino. Please consider a roof rack! Or if you are more concerned about looks like me, take the front wheel off and put your bike in the back seat,,,,,,,, it will fit!

i agree but bike rack are not meant to be styles item on any car there serve a purpose..i trial ride as soon as i get home i take the bike rack off ,it **** me off when i have idiots in my area buying Thule to put it on there car and rice it out i even ask you ride and there like "nah it look hot and S***"
also i dont recommend puting in the bike in the back seat it will fit but it will dirty your interior or and even worst rip your seat up not worth it ,or sale your gs and get BMW 3 series and by the factory bike rack

Trailer Hitch for Bikes covered on CL numerous times
I think a trailer hitch is a better solution.
I don't think they look so terrible , especially if you can appreciate the overall practicality.

Good luck!
