Anybody purchased these? Look like good quality......since they get trashed so often could be worth a set....

Have messaged them to ask if they fit the OEM CSL Bumper....

from the Ebay Page

THESE SPLITTERS WILL ONLY FIT IF YOU HAVE THE CSL STYLE BUMPER. This item will not fit any OEM or original bumpers.

No chance, I was going to buy some ones from CA Automotive but you
Had to drill holes in the bottom.

Trouble is when some genuine ones do come up your bidding against every fooker on here.

Are yours cracked or in need or a refurb

A picture speaks a thousand words ... in this case a couple of thousand words:

They won't fit, don't bother.

It says it all in the title:
CSL 'STYLE' BUMPER CARBON FIBER SPLITTER SET E46 3 SERIES

Which from past experiences this means it's neither; genuine nor does it fit correctly.

I "may" have an answer soon....


I have a mate who works in a high end carbon manufacture and he's going to take a mould of my splitters and copy them :beer:

It'll take a while so don't expect an answer back with the next few weeks, it'll be months due to how busy he is at work.

If they do fit, they're not even the same twill, these are 2x2.
