Hi guys,

I want new carbon splitters, but with the BMW dealer, they cost me 240 euro and that is toooo much !

Where can I buy (cheaper) replicas that fit 100% on an original CSL bumper ?

Thx !

PM dave1 - he usually has a couple of used sets for sale.

It's not hard to reclear the used ones and have them looking brand spanking new if yours aren't damaged.

Alternatively contact Paul from Oceans Plymouth BMW - he can get really good prices on the carbon splitters - I just purchased a new set from them for bugger all money.

You can buy singles brand new from BMW - separate part numbers for left and right.

You didn't happen to land those ones that were on ebay for like FIVE minutes or so??? They were on for £99 as a starting bid but were off the next morning...

I saw them and was most unamused when they disappeared before the auction ended! I even sent a message to the parts guy to ask about them and he simply said that they weren't for sale anymore... :smt104

Hmmmm are we talking about the same item here?? Because the one I bought was done via a buy it now button ....

A company local to me were selling the splitters on the bay for £99

www.mstyle.co.uk (http://www.mstyle.co.uk) a bit of discount over their site £119 obviously reps but may be worth a trip down to check out the quality ;)

Can't be certain but I think they are stick on jobbys for the normal M3 bumper - unless you know otherwise 2bar? :bigcry:

Just wanted to pass on the email I've had from Paul at Ocean BMW, regarding the splitters. He must have had a few people contact........

Hi Andy,

I wish that I could get more and offer them at a special price.

The set that we had were a cancelled order. I can get more but on a special order basis at £200.00 per side carriage free. If this is of interest could you contact me with your chassis number for verification.

Could you do me a favour and explain this on the CSL forum.

Thank you,

Regards,

Paul

£200?! That'll be the normal going rate for 1 splitter then... Thanks for that parts man :smt120... I'm still waiting for my 'special order' NSF splitter to arrive - a month since ordering (which i know is only the start of a long wait...) :banghead:

Maybe we should all independently go into our local stealers this week and order a set - only to cancel and then pick them up cheap on fleabay the next day! :whistle:

Hi guys, I wrote a lot of emails to different sellers of such carbon splitters, BUT they are all for the normal M3 front bumper, NOT for an original CSL one ???

So I think I have to order a new one at my BMW dealer for 200GBP... :bigcry:

Anyone knows a firm who sells original CSL splitters ? Or someone with second hands ? Bur original CSL !

Thx !!!

I was tempted Tim, there's nothing wrong with mine so it seemed a waste. If someone buys them from here they could possibly donate their old set for a short period of time so 2Bar Boost can get a copy made up ;)

Fantastic idea if anyones up for it!!

I have been told that it will take approximately 4weeks to have the sample made ready for the first shipment ;)
