I voted for Hamann. Where is the vote for M-tech, M5, Breyton and others?

Since that second picture is of my car, I voted Hamann....

I actually wanted an ACS splitter since I have the ACS roof, trunk and rear diffuser but I thought the ACS pieces look like shovels or two tusks protruding from the front of the car (no offense to anyone who has it). It probably looks better in person but from the pics, I thought they weren't for me.

Thanks!

What about the replica Hartge splitters. Check out the pictures below. I really like them. I think they're replicas made in Japan.

I was waiting for someone else to say something about the ACS splitter. Thanks, ECF. And, I voted for the Hamann as well.

haha thanks for the pic ...yours and freedoms cars have been very motivating during this mod frenzie iv been in!!!
I just recieved all my ACS parts last week including the splitters, wasnt 100 percent on them but liked the idea, so i was hoping like you said that theyd look better in person, but When i put the splitters up to the my bumper to get a feel for what theyd look like, it just seemed like to much, not really the look i wanted...So now i think im going to sell them and maybe pick up the hamann splitter or just swap to an m5 bumper...
