You can get the OEM splitter from places like GetBMWParts for a fair amount cheaper than your local dealership. For installation, you look for some good performance shops in your local area that should be able to do the install without any issues or you could also take it to your local dealership to install it. The dealership will be charging BMW labor rates which will be a fair amount more than a local shop would charge.

I don’t think adding the front splitter would make the overall look unbalanced and there would be a need to add a rear spoiler. There is the OEM M performance spoiler that can be done but definitely isn’t necessary just because you did the front lip.

I'm sorry but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to find the splitter on getbmwparts. When I search by my vehicle it doesn't come up and when I search front splitter, I'm not totally sure what I'm looking for. Would you mind a link to the part I need?

spoodle I just remembered I have one of the eBay BMW knock-offs unopened in my basement.

This is the one styled the same as the BMW option, in ABS black not carbon.

I found it by reading the earlier comments in this thread.

Might be worth a go before dropping all the cash on the expensive one from BMW if you like the BMW style most.

Let me know if you’re interested in it, I’d send your way for $100 USD plus whatever shipping is. That’s a loss for me but that’s what I get for changing my mind after buying it and going for the Maxton style instead.

It’s this one, for reference (this is the exact listing I bought from):

Hopefully they can be quicker with G05/6 LCI stuff.
I have a full body kit from maxton on my g06 and I have a full kit from aliexpres for my g05 when I compared material and quality maxtons products were trash in comparison.

Yes, Note, mine was more expensive as I got the extended sideskirts I wanted the full sideskirts not the half sideskirts. It’s a process putting it on but I like the look better.

Thanks to chicagofan00 helping me get the right OEM parts (with about a $800 savings, too!) I got the OEM front splitter installed this week. The installer said it was a perfect fit, easy to install.

Looks really good! I’ll definitely have to get this for mine at some point this year.

I have ordered thin carbon fiber side skirt extensions few weeks ago to match front splitter, should be arriving soon. Once wether gets better here, I’ll install and post. Hoping that it will compliment nicely with OEM splitter.

I’ve really been thinking about it lately!

Interested to see the photos of the CF side skirt extensions once you get them.

Just had it installed, quite pleased given the cost compared to OEM + BMW fitting.

Hoping it's easy to install without struggles. If anyone has a guide on installation it would be appreciated otherwise I may look for a garage around here to get it fitted.

Hi everyone! I absolutely love the way the front splitter looks and DEFINITELY want to add it once I take delivery of my m60i in a month or two! However, this is my first time leasing and I know mods must be able to be removed by lease end. Do any of you think the small amount of drilling required by the install of this will cause any issues upon return?

I don’t think dealers ever check underneath the vehicle. All they really care about are physical damages visible while standing and tire tread.

Just installed a non-OEM version. Vehicle looks so much better with a front splitter.
