Can I get some opinions on owners as to their thoughts on the aesthetics of this particular product?

Tuned1M · 01-18-2013, 10:52 AM

I think less is better when it comes to these lips. This one seems overkill IMO.

Robcut1 · 01-18-2013, 11:07 AM

I was thinking this as well. No pictures available on a VO

If the lip is flat and doesn't interface with the curves of the bumper, I don't think it looks good when it's front edge is carved that way. IF you are going to try to save money and not go the CF Revosport route, I would just stick with the LightWeight. Looks good, is really sturdy, and keeps me from scraping my baby's nose on the ground.

Doesnt look good IMO. Luckily i bought a lightweight one! Now i just have to install it

Rsmatt · 01-18-2013, 02:06 PM

I actually prefer the look of this to the lightweight one but my car is too low to have it

ozinaldo · 01-18-2013, 04:01 PM

By far the worst I have seen. Too big, doesn't match the design of the front end, you name it. Indeed, is it even designed for 1M? Hard to believe.

+1 the kerscher looked better on the 135 imho

Robcut1 · 01-18-2013, 04:19 PM

Anything that looks like the lightweight but reaches all the way to the wheel well (ends of the front fascia)??

+1

A bit more front extension would be nice too.

spyder562 · 01-18-2013, 05:24 PM

now that is ugly.

mpower2 · 01-19-2013, 12:18 PM

here are from my car, with the Kerscher Front Lip.

Robcut1 · 01-19-2013, 01:46 PM

It looks well proportioned and comes finished to the edges

I agree looks more like a Motorsport splitter and I actually think it follows the lines of the bumper, I don't get what you other guys dislike about it but if everyone liked the same things it would be a boring world!

-Z- · 01-19-2013, 07:26 PM

2nd it. Looks quite good, definitely not "ugly" as some suggested

That Sir is a stunning motor vehicle.Not sure why the other negative comments about the Kerscher Carbon splitter,suits the lines of the vehicle and at the price a bargain.In fact once the snow in scotland has gone my splitter (Kerscher) will be going on my AW 1M.
