Front Splitter/Splitters/Lips

Afternoon All,

On my list of mods is to make the front bumper more aggressive.

What Splitter/Splitters/Lips are other people running?

Hi

First things, what front bumper do you have? SE or M-Sport? Pre-LCI or LCI?

These all have different options so need to know that first

Interested... Same colour and model as my 330d, and a splitter is next on my shopping list.

I *think* I want a full width splitter, rather than the flippers, but there's not a lot available. I'm eyeing up this one at MStyle:

It's just a shame they don't have a picture of one fitted.

First off, is that your car? If so, loving it mate. Wheels and stance look perfect!

I did buy some 'flippers' but they weren't genuine and the fitment was shocking. Every picture I see, other than the one you've posted, the fitment isn't perfect enough for my liking.

Like Parapaul, I think I'd prefer a full width splitter but can't seem to find one that just jumps out at me and screams, yeh that's the one!

Having said that I do like the what ******** are doing in this thread with there kit:

Not 100% sure, but think that lip is the same style as the one on the red e91 here: Link

My favourite lip for the pre lci msport

Hmm. Now I've seen that I'm not sure if I prefer those flippers. Anyone know which ones they are? They look more aggressive and a better fit than a lot I've seen.

There is the 3D one that looks a tad like the touring car one.

Nobber, if still interested in a splitter, I am looking to order a replacement for mine. See thread here:

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=923872

The replacement would be plastic (PU RIM) so much better than the fibreglass one I have on right now that is shattered to bits.

Let me know if interested, and maybe we can get a deal on a pair and save on shipping etc.

Hi Mate,

Cheers for the heads up. Although it's the best full splitter I've seen yet it still doesn't do it for me fully, sorry buddy.

Having said that, your car is epic!

I'm waiting on Chris @ ******** to release some more info about the above kit as I think it looks spot on.

No problem mate, just thought I would ask. As for the kit from Chris, I am interested too, but just cannot convince myself over the materials as yet. I have never been a fan of fibre glass parts, this splitter shows why, and to have the whole bumper from it just doesn't sit right with me just yet. Not to say the kit won't be superb, I am sure there is some decent stuff made of fibre out there, but as much as love the design, its just not 100% for me.
