F32 front splitter. Those who have one, where did you get it?

Possibly going to get one of these for my F32. Not keen on spending £700 or so on the M Performance original, so looking for good quality options.

Suggestions with pictures, especially on an AW would be extremely helpful

Thanks

I got mine after a search on EBay. Despite the list price on EBay of £730, I managed to get it for £630 delivered. Genuine BMW part from Benham BMW, dealt with Chris.

Looks very nice.

Did you fit it yourself?

Unfortunately there are no good replicas of this splitter in carbon fibre, however you could get an exact replica but in plastic which personally I think is a better option for any front splitter.

Would actually prefer Matt ABS to match the rear diffuser anyway.

No mine is Matt black and effectively cost me £75, I wouldn't want one that cost much as I've already scraped it twice!

This is the best ABS rep you can get at the moment and looks the same as the one sold in the U.S.

I kept an eye on eBay, managed to pick up a used one in need of a bit of TLC which I didn't mind as I wanted to part paint it anyway. Didn't fancy paying dealer prices for carbon fibre to then paint over half of it. Anyway a fresh clear coat on the carbon and some alpine white later and it looked as good as new for under £200

I bought one from eBay used. Underside is terrible but figured no-one sees it anyway! Got it for just over £100 and the fitting kit was £30 so not too shabby for something that's £600-700 new.

RW Carbon do a replica carbon one and the fit was perfect. But it's from the states so you need to take into account shipping and possible import taxes

I think Mocca bought his F30 splitter from them, it's fast lane styling in Romford.
