You guys should confirm with him again. They don't make Hartge replica splitter for M Tech. The make them for the M5 front bumper and the price is around $500 from Revozport. MyProjectCars.com also offer a similar piece but again, only for the M5 front.

BTW, looks great John! Just get used to it being scraped soon; it's inevitable. The first scrape is the most painful.

Yea, I think i would be better off in doing this US wise. Shipping from thailand must be painful. I think he did post pics of the splitter on the Mtech.

Let me dig them up...

A-Ha! I found the posting.

Hartage Splitter on Mtech Front from Member 525se

hmm... I dunno.. darn g/f is making me think twice.. she keeps saying it makes the ride look too agressive / ricey... and you know all us asians love rice..



If I get it, I would take it off in the winter and put it back on in the summer, due to my winter wheels being only 17's and the front drops down dramatically.


Dilemma, Dilemma.

Hey John, post some pics of the bolts / how its attached. I want to see. =) How much was labor installing it?

that certainly looks more aggressive than the hamann!

i will try and get underneath to shoot the bolts, no guarantees cuz' it's tight.

I remember seeing that thread but isn't that the authentic Hartge splitter? Maybe they do have a replica one now. Anyway, that Hartge piece looks a bit weird to me cause it extends too far out in front. It's not like that on the M5. You guys should also consider the Lumma Tuning splitter. Something unique but it's probably pricey.

If it's anything like the real Hamann splitter, there should be holes underneath the splitter that lines up with bolts underneath the M Tech bumper and you use those existing bolts to mount it.
