Best SPLITTERS replica?

there seems to be a million manufacturers of replica splitters, from forums sponsors to hundreds of chinesse copies in Ebay, etc.

does anyone have any recommendations on which one of these guys has the best "fit"?

the " " has not revealed any good answers for me...

I bought these. Great fitment, great quality, no complaints. I can post pictures later if you want. PM me. I ordered these a couple weeks ago and just installed it. . I was a little worried it'd be to cheap.

My friend got JL-Motoring ones and they look pretty good on his car. http://www.jl-motoring.com/Default.asp

Course, I have legit ones, and those look pretty good on my car too.

Dude. With splitters, get the chinese replicas.. $150 shipped off ebay. Here's mine that are color-matched.





Now, with the OEM Performance Spoiler, I'd definitely go with factory. I think I paid $430 shipped from getbmwparts.com

Exactly. Probability of curbage = 0.0001% (accounts for owners who manage to flip their cars)

did not come with screws. But it came with sufficient 3m tape in the places needed on the inside of the splitters..

Two holes are also present, you can just drill in. Very easy install and they look OEM.

Everyone loves them.

Did you use screws at all in the install or just the tape?

I used 2 screws per side and then the tape that came with the splitters. Filled in a couple of gaps with black silicone.

Are the weave patterns on JL ones and bimmian splitters same as the OEM ones?
It's very hard to tell from the pictures
