M5 style splitter

Sam_M550i · 07-08-2022, 07:22 AM

I like the look of the F90 M5 splitter. Yes I know the M5 has a different front bumper but was curious if anyone knows of a front splitter that looks like the M5 splitter shown in the link but designed to fit the M550i bumper?

I bought this one from eBay. Doesn't look like the one you're looking for but this is what it looks like on my G30. Honestly happy with the way it looks

I have a similar one to yours on my pre-LCI M550i but was curious about my options. The M5 splitter looks much better, specially how it has that scoop look that extends out.

I got the same one put on by a shop but they didn’t put it on correctly so I’m taking it back.

Debating on if I should keep the side pieces or just have them removed and only keep the big bottom price .

Any thoughts/opinions on the look now would be appreciated

You're a brave man running a splitter in our area. I've been thinking about it. My drive will eat it up though if I don't come in slowly at an extreme angle. I'd definitely go the cheap eBay route because it will be short lived. I think I'll do side skirts first.

I think LCI front lip splitter looks the best

Yah I went ebay route and honestly I have scrapped anything but even then it's better than destroying the bumper. I was thinking side skirts but many kept saying it builds up dirt.

I started this post mainly cause the F90 splitter looks so much better than G30 one. Flows better and more aggressive.

I agree. I love the F90 splitter.

jiggyboiswagg Did you ever try this w/o the 2 side pieces and just the bottom?

Don't worry about the side skirts. They're not dust traps.

How hard is the installation of the side skirts? 3M tape and screws?

Yup. The fit is perfect. I did add a couple screws to each side for some extra support, but I was super impressed with the fit.

Where did you purchase the side skirts? I'm thinking of going the cheap eBay gloss black.

540iSUP · 09-04-2022, 10:48 PM

I went with RW Carbon. I'm sure the gloss black ones will fit the same.

Jerry P · 09-05-2022, 04:54 PM

I also did the rw carbon. I love the look on my ride. I added the 3d side skirt extenders also.

Sorry for the late af reply, I just logged in haha. Yes actually I had the shop remove the two side winglet pieces and I would have to say it looks much better without them!

Ordered. Thanks everyone.

I doubt we'll put on the extra side pieces, we want it subtle.
