First impressions: 1) The overall look is good and does change up the front of the car, 2) the CF has a nice shine to match the BMW performance CF mirrors and CF rear spoiler. 3) the overall fit is about 90% accurate with a few minor gaps that can easily be hid with black automotive decals, 4) very easy to install as they essentially fit over the bottom portion of the bumper, and 5) there is no 3M automotive tape supplied so you may want to purchase before ordering.

Overall I give this product an 8/10. Is it worth a $199 .......probably not. If the price point was $120/set then yes. Enjoy
Awesome. Would it be possible to get pictures of it in better light? Maybe when you have them mounted.

Thanks!

Hehehe, why? I have lots of carbon fiber on the rear (MP carbon rear spoiler, MP carbon exhaust tips and MP carbon license plate frame), but nothing on the front, this is why I would want those to fit the MP front splitter

Blacked out blades and lower bumper section by brake ducts of my M135i sing satin black vinyl. Could have had CF wrap at no extra cost.







Was charged about 70 bucks all in by local car vinyl wrapping place here in London.

Here are some new pics (in the sun) for those wanting a better look at the CF splitters. Great way of protecting the bottom lip.

Anyone else order? I'm debating whether to go with the $199 ones or the ones that screw through the bottom for a little more money

So these just stick on with 3m tape? How bad are the gaps with the fitment?
