eBay Front Splitters - Performance Bumper
Just put these front splitters on today. Got them for $90 + $30 shipping on eBay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Carbon-Fiber...ff6098&vxp=mtr
The are fiberglass with carbon laid on the leading edge. Thin, but fairly rigid. They didn't come pre-drilled for use with the factory screw holes. Made a cardboard template to line one side up. First fit I was a bit off so I had to make the holes slightly bigger. After finishing the drivers side, I just traced the final holes onto the passenger. Also had to make a new hole by the innermost leading edge to get it tight to the bumper. Think they look great for under $100... better than paying $800 for the BMW ones. Anyone who's interested in getting these, let me know. I'll take one off and make a template to save you some time on the holes.. |

No kidding, looks very nice! Also another big plus in my book is that it looks like BMW would have done it.

I re-visited this post before bidding on ebay, & realized that it says "for performance bumper." Well CRAP. I've got the regular stock bumper on my 128i vert...so it won't work???

Looks nice! I will have to check them out. I haven't been able to find a lip spoiler I really like that didn't cost a fortune.

Can anyone tell me the difference between the "Performance bumper" & a stock one such as I have on 128i vert? Eyeballing it, they don't look all that different of a line across the bottom, but apparently there's enough difference that these splitters won't be compatible....?? I really like these (& the price, of course). Haven't been able to find anything as nice for as good a $$.
