The ACS Splitters in my opinion look amazing, but every topic I read about it everyone says it only looks good on dark colored cars. Since My 535 is AW this is making me feel sketchy about getting them. If you have pics of the splitters on a light car plz post, AW especially. I've been unable to find any through searching the net. Thanks

I don't get it. Just looks like someone slapped another piece on the bottom of the car which I guess they basically did. Not feeling it at all.

I have had my ACS for 1year painted ready to fit, but have been reluctant to fit for that same reason. They look good on dark coloured cars but mine is titanium silver. May sell them and go for the aero carbon splitter

You can see pictures of my Silver Grey following this link:

IMO adding ACS splitter to the light coloured car you get at least the advantage that there is no ugly black plastic insert around the foglights, which you have on the standard M-aerokit and that is very distinctive in particular for light colours.

I wonder how it would look if the splitters were jet black on an alpine white car
