im indecisive of picking a splitter for my car. Which one do you think fits best?

Hartge



Hamann (delje08's car)
Hartge ! Looks meaner and more balanced, too many "seams " in the Hamman. IMHO

Cheers

I've posted about this in other threads, but I'm debating on the same exact splitters. I personally like the look of the Hamann splitter much better, but after seeing various pictures of this splitter installed on lowered E60's, I'm getting second thoughts if my car will last on the rugged SoCal streets, let along climb my freakin' driveway. Tony (quad_m) is just waiting for me to give him the 'go' sign to add the Hamann splitter to my M-Tech order

I think you're gonna have issues with either splitter. They both flare out the edges and that's where you're gonna be most prone to scrape. Are the splitters urethane or fiber glass? fiberglass + black paint = ugly rock chips :thumbsdown:

Dam John! Thought you were done after your exhaust. And how many new toys have you added since?

Anyhow, between the two splitters, imo the Hamann is nicer hands down. Sure it's more common, but you mainly see them on the forums--which is full of enthusiasts. How often are you gonna run into another E60 on the road with the same splitter? I understand being unique, but the Hamann is flat out gorgeous.

Pros for Hamann
- smoother appearance (lines flow better)
- more functional
- nicer

Pros for Hartge
- cheaper (1/2 the price)
- more unique
- better clearance

Don't get me wrong--the Hartge is nice too. But, if you're asking which is better, I say Hamann. Maybe Chris could get you a deal on one at the WP clearance.
