I actually had this weird idea of getting the OEM carbon fiber add-on with the Hamann splitter. What do you guys think of that?

I vote Harge lip too! So smooooth. Oh and if you go for the OEM CF lip + Hamann lip, make sure that hamann lip is made of plastic or urethane or else you're gonna crush that thing within a week!

punkster, what color is your car? If it's black, I think the AC Schnitzer would look awesome. If it's a lighter color the Schnitzer is too wild I think. Then go for the Hamann lip or Hartge Lip.

I'm not a fan of that front either.. too spaceship like. Maybe you can mix and match - ACS sides and back and Hartge front lip? That would be awesome.

I will be getting Harge lip, as well as Hartge Classic 2 19", but Hartge is not yet ready with the 19", only 21" available now. :rocks:

I know of a few places that sell AC Schnitzer parts (but I'm sure there's more if you search around on google):

http://www.hmsmotorsport.com/store.php?b=acs

http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/

http://www.cecwheels.com/

Their websites might not have Schnitzer stuff available for the E90 yet but maybe you can e-mail ahead to find out availability/prices, etc...

I think the OEM spoiler/lip looks nice - have you seen lots of pics here? The rear deck spoiler even comes prepainted and you don't need to paint the CF front lip obviously so it saves you the hassle and cost of getting things painted. Maybe the ///M aero kit will come with sideskirts?
