Ivano,
That's a really nice touch. It seriously changes the dynamics of the front of the car in a good way. Did you end up using a different adhesive altogether and if so, what was the alternative choice? Also if you don't mind me asking, where did your GF buy these?

Happy motoring!

good questions,

I used the glue that came with the splitters,because I wanted them mounted ASAP!
So I mounted them and fixed it with strong adhesive.I left the adhesive for about 24 hours,then I removed it and voilà, next mod was ready..

To be honest, I arranged the splitters and my GF paid for them
You can take a look at ebay germany, just search for bmw e60 carbon..

Thank everybody for the compliments, I told my GF that everybody in this forum is jealous about her, she was like , then

The next 3 weeks I'm off from work,so hopefully there will be better pictures, but only after adding the black roof


bye,
ivano
