I had seen these splitters when I was in America a few months back visiting friends. At the time I didn't bite the bullet with the purchase. But earlier this month I decided to get 3 of these shipped in by one of the friends who I was visiting.

The fit seems quite good. It is nice and tight on the bumper, mine was secured in place using some 'mammoth tape' (purchased from amazon). And hasn't moved an inch in the 2-3 weeks it has been on the car.

I've never really had any other CF parts and to be honest I have no idea if it is genuine CF.

What I can tell you about the items:
- The are sold by a custom parts store in Michigan (USA)
- They are very light (quite thin also/ but so far seems reasonably durable)
- There seems to be a 'fibrous' finish on the back/inside. (I'm not sure if these means they are genuine or not?
- There is a gloss/laquered finish on the front

For me the important parts which told me if was worth the purchase:
- Looks the part
- Didn't break the bank
- The friend's (the one in USA) neighbour had it on his car for over a year and still looked the part.
- Seemed a safer bet than buying from china/ hong kong vendors who are the only others I've known to supply these for under £300-£400.

Anyway, I have one set on my car. So there are 2 more up for grabs, will be sent out in plenty of bubble wrap and hopefully I can get a suitably sized box from work over the next few days. Posted from Leicester UK to anywhere in the UK.

£110 for each set.

You have made a good point there!

I have it on a Facelift e90 M-sport. As far as I am aware; the front bumper on the is the same on the e91 M-sport.
