niceeeee my personal perference with the splitters is to leave em CF on AW. color contrast looks good on it imo

haha and yeah you do need some wheels! and a sport pack or you'll look like a monster truck!

Wow that gotta be a first time on this E90 forum, painted M-tech splitters... Hum, I think I will prefer to leave them CF for the contrast, but still they look nice...

I don't think I will be lowering it.. I lowered my last car only 1.5" and I regretted it because of the roads here.. they are really terrible.

Just going to add some black rims with polished lips and call it a day I think

It looks good, but I really like to see the CF weave.

Finally someone did this. Looks good. Because of the M-Tech CF splitter design, the paint helps it blend in better with the lines of the bumper. CF looks good, but I think this looks better in this case.

I'm really interested in doing this

Name?

It just looks so much better than the normal sports kit huh?

I just got a new 330i which has the splitter like yours as well as the diffuser and spolier on the boot/trunk. My friends ask me what kit this is and I don't know. Is this called M-Tech ? See my garage for the full kit.

Well I got a very good deal because I have a friend who works @ BMW so I got parts really cheap, and also the paint/installation was really cheap..

$1,300 parts
$500 paint/installation.

Generally the kit would have cost $1800-$1900 and paint $700-$1000
