Side Skirts Splitters.



Im sure we all seen the post about side skirt splitters with this beautiful e90. After seeing that I went on the hunt for a set I know a few vendors sell them but in carbon fiber but didn't want that look. I did come across a person on ebay who sells them and makes them himself and was asking for 140 or best offer. I figured if he'll take 100 ill take the risk well he took it!! I talked to the guy, seem like a cool guy said hell have them made and shipped no later then tuesday. Ill keep anyone who is looking for a set also posted. By the way if anyone can pointed me in the direction of where I can find that hood on the picture for lci id appreciate it i'm having no luck.

Heres The link to the item:

No thats a different guy. If you look his splitters flare out near the rear skirts, while mine does not.

The length is perfect, literally.

The problem is when you get something thats super thin, they will be pretty much invisible at certain angles when taking photos. Should be atleast half an inch minimum in width to insure they show up.

Just my 2 cents. There are always multiple different designs for the same type of product because we are all different and all of us have a different taste for things.

Also the ones pictured on the red E90 in the original post are the same ones we have listed on the forum and same ones carried by LT.

I agree also that's my biggest concern that there going to be thin but I thought I'd take the chance at that price. I Didnt want to do carbon fibber. Fingers crossed

Just food for thought, 350Z guys use ones made by Roush for new Mustangs. I haven't checked the length yet, but they look good otherwise and they have some thickness to them since there is an edge and it's not just a piece of flat plastic. Price is decent, I think ~$150.

Haven't had a chance to upload a picture but I'm happy with them. Painted them Saturday installed Sunday easy install. With the front lip it looks good. Once I get my car washed I'll make sure to post some pictures.

I have to agree.. The splitters are not overpriced at 550 and the results speak for themselves!

I recommend the carbon splitters
