Question About F82 front lip and front splitter
Not sure but I am confused about which one is which. If I am not wrong, there are there 2 splitters that go on the front right and left and 1 lip cover that goes at the bottom of the bumper? (Image attached for what I think is splitter)
View post on imgur.com The shopbmwusa.com site states: "To ensure proper driving behavior/aerodynamic balance, it is strongly recommended that the rear trunk lid spoiler be installed in conjunction with the front splitter." So adding the splitter is crucial for aeros? |

BMW calls the left/right carbon fiber bumper inserts "M-Performance Splitters". The polyurethane lower lip is referred to as the "M-Performance Lip".
Can you install the lip without the splitters? Yes. But it'll look stupid. Notice on the front view you can see that the lip is warped/pushed upward in order to get fastened to the bumper. The CF splitters actually change the shape of that mounting area; it protrudes more and makes the lower lip sit flush. No Splitters. Yes Splitters. |
