Anyone Bought A Front Splitter Off Of Ebay??

Aright people,
I like the look of these, but sometimes on eBay and on pictures not all is as seems.
So I thought I'd ask the pros..

Any help, guidance, info or experience of these would be awesome

Cheers

Charles

I've been keeping an eye on that same splitter. The only thing stopping me from purchasing is that the carbon version doesn't appear to actually be carbon fibre. It just looks like some grey material with a black pattern layed over it to give the appearance of carbon fibre.

I bought 3 different splitters for my old E39 from eBay. 2 fit perfectly and one just fit well. I haven't yet bought a splitter for my E82 but I won't hesitate to buy one from eBay again. The ones you linked to are a replica of the Kerscher splitter. They have more than likely been made from a mould from a genuine Kerscher so the fit should be good enough.

I would avoid the second one as it's fibreglass and will be a lot more fragile. The seller in the first link also has the same in black ABS plastic which would probably be the best way to go.
