So i called Garry for a quote today on these CF Front Splitters. He said that there is not a listing on the splitters for pre-LCI cars. Only for LCI.

My question to all here is, is the LCI M-Tech front bumper the same shape and size as the pre-LCI M-Tech front bumper? My assumption was that they are exactly the same. The only difference is that the LCI has the reflectors by the front wheel well and the Pre-LCI does not.

Heres the diagram from realoem.com. The part that I am concerened about is #2. Will these fit or not?

Then i'm pretty sure the LCI should fit, but I can be wrong.

It fits the same. PM me for the splitter.

The M-tech front bumper for pre-LCI cars and LCI models is the same, except to fit the LCI M-tech front bumper, it requiresthe reinforcement bar to prevent the bumper front sagging.

Part #2 (Splitters) will fit both the LCI and Pre-LCI M-Tech bumpers. Did Garry quote you a price for these with the 25% discount? I want to say member poleposition paid around $175-$200.
