Who Makes a Quality Set of CF Splitters?

3002 tii · 10-02-2013, 06:09 AM

I see few options from cheap eBay to $700 Power Agency, anything in between? I also know of Seibon but read they that have terrible quality, is there anyone else I'm missing?

Splitters specifically or are you open to one piece lips as well?

Scopione has some good ones

Splitters, one for each side

I've searched and searched, as I thought I would need them to "match" my diffuser. Never found anything that looks right to me, and for some reason every front lip looks totally out of place to my eye. Interested to see if you find something you like because I think we have similar taste in what a mod should look like!

We do think alike, wanted something subtle and oem looking for the front to balance the rear but nothing to my liking so far

ive got a pair from jcsportline, they were 170$ shipped and the quality and fitment is pretty much spot on. (with minor adjustments to some corners)
they look pretty sweet too!

I got a set from ebay for $159 shipped. Pics on my sig. Looks the same as vicuiousgook. Love the name btw. lol

Thanks I'll look into these. My concern with the more affordable ones is that their finish doesn't hold up as well overtime so they eventually fade or turn yellow.

Thanks any close up shots from different angles? Does it install using the factory bolts underneath or do you need to drill?

Was this the one you got?

Yes those were them. Here are some pics. I did however had to do some grinding to make them fit perfect but they were predrilled to use the factory bolts underneath. Pretty easy install and fits good after some grinding.

Had mine for about 8 months now and it still looks new. I live in the south where its really hot so I was concerned about these fading and turning yellow. It came clearcoated and it is holding up really good.

+1, wouldn't worry about them turning yellow at all. I live in Australia atm hitting 30 degrees + Celsius.. Had mine for around 2 months and they still look new.
JCsportline is quite reputable.

I think I like those the best. My problem with them is the horizontal line they add to the side. That's my OCD!
