Ok guys...continuing my mods. Have a MTech front bumper in route for my 07' 550i, and a Rieger spoiler, to go with the M5 side rails that I just installed. My beast is Alpine White. Based on feedback from the forum, I contacted Vincent at eurorev to inquire about a Hamann replica splitter. I think I'm gonna get it from eurorev, a few questions -

1. Has anyone purchased the Hamann replica splitter from eurorev for a MTech front bumper. Any comments on fitment, or any issues?
2. Should I get it in white to match, or carbon fiber for contrast? I'm leaning towards the white.
3. How low is the bumper and splitter going to be to the ground? Will I have any issues with speed bumps hitting and cracking the splitter? My car is not dropped, it has factory springs?

Last time I contacted them they only had the "carbon" replica hamann splitter, but that was over a month ago.

perfect fitment. trust me. I go there all the time and still admire how it well they replicated the splitter.

Its not low unless you slammed the car really low (mine is only half way)

with H&R sport springs



with Bilstein Pss9 coilovers


if you look closely, its a foot in (thats not me btw)

with delje08 who has bilstein coilovers too


ps. you have to be trained in the art of angling through dips and bumps
and this is my daily car

I didn't buy splitter from them, but I bought Carbon interior and longest piece came cracked. I contacted them (with pictures of that cracked piece) they said that there was insurance on shipping and they will send me new piece, then after a week I contacted them from forum PM from ebay from email NO ANSWER NO ANSWER and NO ANSWER.
So I keep my 500$ carbon interior in package in my garage useless I can't even sell it cause of cracked piece!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So is your white splitter a replica from Eurorev?
