Anyone have an original M perf front lip with aftermarket CF splitters?

Would love to hear your feedback as I'm trying to save some money on this setup by using aftermarket splitters.

Thanks

It will work fine, they just MUST be OEM replica splitters. Alot of cheap splitters are not OEM replicas. The oem ones actually protrude more when compared to chinese ones.

Is it possible to install the lip without the splitter?

Only aftermarket ones I know for a fact work are the RW ones, I have seen it done with these.

Possible? Sure its possible. It will look like garbage. There will be huge gaps where the splitters are supposed to sit
