I dont think BMW will come out with paintable splitters, your best bet is to pm Jeff at Fusion. He is a sponser now, so try him!

I seem to recall a poster mentioning sometime in the next few months...

I also believe replicas are coming out soon, as well.

I am waiting for these, too.

ugh. i personally.... was kinda bummed about the fitment with the carbon fiber, but hey, its carbon fiber, its suppose to be a lip, you are suppose to be able to see where the car ends and the carbon fiber starts. when people first started PAINTING carbon fiber, i was ok with, it was different, looked ok. but i dont think i like the way factory painted ones look. cause you can see where they are glued on. and it kinda makes it look cheap to me.
this is just my personal opinion. im sure a lot will disagree.

HRC · 07-07-2006, 02:56 PM

No worries man!

It doesnt bother me that you or anyone else doesnt like my car. I just don't like it when people talk shit (not that you are). There is a way to say you dont like it, either say nothing or say nice but not my style...Not everyone will like everything.

I think it looks great

KL2DC · 07-07-2006, 03:27 PM

Hey Danny,

Your arktis 330 looks great

. The splitters are very subtle.

Are those real painted OEM style CF splitters from Fusion or fibreglass OEM style painted? How much were they?

I think Jeff may have a couple more sets. Ask him if he can set up paint for you. I had mine painted by a friend.

myfirstbimmer · 07-07-2006, 06:54 PM

Thanks

HRC · 07-07-2006, 07:03 PM

Dude, read the first few posts!

Danny

myfirstbimmer · 07-07-2006, 08:05 PM

OK, how do I contact Jeff at Fusion? Does Fusion have a website? I checked our sponsor section and have no mention of the spliters at all

TIA
