Aftermarket front lip option w/ OEM MP Splitter
Hi,
My car came with OEM m-performance carbon splitter from the factory. Since this came from the factory, the carbon splitters are almost impossible to take off without getting a body shop involved. Im currently in the market for a new carbon front lip and wanted to ask what aftermarket front lip fits the m-performance carbon splitter w/o modification to the splitters or at the most, just requires a bit of trimming. Trying to stick w/ companies that has developed the lip themselves and not replicas. Have been doing some research, but wanted to get some real world answers and examples! Thanks |

Nothing fits like OEM. I managed to find a used one after I cracked my first OEM but it's def $$$.
There's a Latvian seller on ebay that is talked about pretty highly on the ebay seller thread section (at least regarding CS lip) that makes the M Perf replica so you could look into that |

For the carbon splitters, I would just order an oem m performance lip. The splitters you have most likely were glued on using BMW's Betalink which is a very strong adhesive.
Some people here have been able to fit a CS style chin spoiler without trimming them and some people had to trim them. If the splitters cannot be removed, your options are probably a new bumper or the M perf version.

They have a VERY poor track record here. Buy at your own risk.
