I haven't added any mods to my car in the past year, mainly because I was going to sell my car but I think I'm just going to keep it a little longer. So what better to do to make me feel my car is a little newer than to buy some mods. haha! Trying to decide between the ACS M-tech splitters in jet black OR the Hamann splitter/Lip in either carbon fiber or jet black. My car is all jet black so I don't know if the carbon fiber would look weird or not. What do you guys think? Help me out! Heres a pic of my car for reference.

nice e60. since your e60 is black, for sure either will look good. i wouldnt go carbon fiber though since you said everything is jet black. just my opinion.

Thats what i was thinking. I think i will go with jet black but I've always liked the ACS Splitters but lately I've been seeing a lot of Hamann splitters on fellow e60'ers cars and I must admit i looks pretty sweet too.

I'm also worried about scraping though. The bottom of my M-tech kit is pretty scratched up and who knows what will happen if i add something underneath it. My car isn't even lowered either!

Go with the ACS if you are worried about scraping because it has more clearance.

Here's a pic of the ACS....stole them from i'msortofabigdeal (sorry). The more a look at the pictures of it, the more I am leaning toward the ACS. I think they look meaner.


A la Imsortofabigdeal

One vote for ACS!!!
(not just because i do have one

I was in same situation and I am glad that I have ACS instead of Hamann.

While I was shopping for splitter, I leaned toward Hamann....
because it looked better inside of COMPUTER SCREEN....(i looked at many pictures in every color & shades)
But in real life, ACS looks better ---> 100% in my opinion.....haha.....don't gang up on me now....

1. ACS looks more aggressive & looks better on dark color car
2. ACS gives Batmobile-ish look to the car (it really does)

oh, and carbon fiber looks good on black car.....i wish i had daytime picture...but i have one taken from parking lot.
member IamSortaBigdeal has black ACS, and I have CF ACS splitter...so u can kind of compare

I drive around Fullerton a lot, so if u get to see me on street...come say hi to me
