Hi Guys,

We started discussing this on ImSortOfABigDeal's thread about the new subtle changes to his car but I thought I'd start a new thread for other people to chime in (and also easier to search for later on).

Anyway, the RDSport splitter discussion started around post #29 of this thread: http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=46756&st=15

I'm also posting couple pics from that thread below. What do you guys think? Anyone with more info?

KnIgHtCoM has been trying to reach Federico at RDSport for more info. I also sent Federico an email earlier today.

Thanks ECF for starting a new thread and sorry Steven for hijacking yours! Hahaha.

It's a prototype splitter so there's no pricing information yet. The pictures above are the only good ones I could find from SEMA. Here's a picture of it unmounted and unpainted:

It looks like it wraps around the bottom and there's no gap like the Hamann splitter.

I can't tell if it sits under the mouth like a chin or extends out making the mouth longer. Hopefully Federico will send some more pictures. I'll keep hunting the SEMA galleries.

Man, these tuner magazine photogs can't take pictures if their life depended on it. Found another:
