Are there splitters (not lips) available for the M5 style replica front bumpers? I'm talking about the 2 black pieces that go under the fog lights.

Thanks!

I don't think so. I posed that same question a month ago or so and got little response.
Let me know if you find one....I'm in!

Yeah I thought Umnizta or Trinity would be making one. Hopefully they would chime in and enlighten me. I'm not really into the full lip look.

The choices are limited for the M5 style bumper. There is no plan in near future for anything besides what they have now which is the Hamman splitter for the M5 style bumper. Recent fourm members has tried adding on corner splitters (Vorstein Rep) and they don't fit needs heavy modification to make them fit. So you may look in getting an M-tech or the Real OEM M5 bumper which will have way more options.

Unfortunately the Hamman splitter is garbage, it makes every day driving a chore. Don't get me wrong, the thing looks sick but you have to ask yourself is it really worth it. I ride on 20's which raises my car up slightly. Even on 20's the hamman splitter sits about 3 inches or so off the ground so you have to drive around like a true pro. After 4 months of driving like a "pro" avoiding every pothole, steep driveway, and dead animal in the road. I eventually had the splitter literally torn off by one of those drain things in the ground the gas stations pump their fuel into, it was sticking maybe 4 inches out of the ground so that was good game for the splitter.
