Front Lip/ Splitters

Are there really only 1-2 options for a full front lip for the M2. Only ones I see so far are what's available on IND's website (RKP, 3D design) both either not my style or way overpriced IMO. Saw PSM dynamics kit and looks great but can't find it anywhere. Vorsteiner supposedly still in the works? Anything else? Need a front lip but don't want to end up getting 2 which may be the case with my rear diffuser. Loving the psm dynamics diffuser with the underbody.... (I saw another one that had the underbody and side wings on the rear diffuser but forgot the name of the company that made it- looks great IMO)

Any and all updates would be great! Thanks

And the m perf front and side winglets are not my style at all I know they're available but don't like them. Looking for a full front lip that flows well with the car. Seems like it's hard to do these days haha

thanks a lot man I appreciate it most of them not really what I would go with but the first two are ones I haven't seen before which is great. Love seeing new kits.

PSM has my full attention right now just waiting on Vorsteiner and will probably choose between the two or mix and match what I like best from each. Thanks for be help though!!

The lightweight splitter picks up 5(?) existing holes that hold the undertray and you drill another three each side and fit rivet nuts. About an hour all up.

I believe the lightweight splitter was shipped to DrKevM5 (?) with a bunch of scratches and he had to repaint it himself

I had the lightweight Splitter on my Z4, was very satisfied with it.
For the M2 they also have it in carbon.

That looks so subtle but awesome! Care to comment on daily driving with it?

It´s for an additional cooling package they offer.
There will be a similar lip without it.

That motorsport24 lip looks amazing. Best lip option so far IMO. Anyone familiar with this company? What's the quality like?

I would agree that the motorsport24 lip looks the best.

I also like that bonnet.

I installed this over the weekend on my M2. Easy install (90 min) and it does have a nice center block to secure the middle of the splitter. Came with high quality stainless hardware and it all,worked perfectly.

I love how it finishes off the lower bumper without being obnoxious. If it doesn't catch my wife's eye instantly, then I know it's a subtle mod.
Not sure it will do squat at higher speeds, maybe. I really did it for the aesthetics, since I felt the stock air dam needed some lower protection and finishing.

And it was a 1/3 of the price of most at $499.
Granted it's the lightweight poly' not fancy carbon, but it's definitely tough for the driveways I'm sure to rub on.

Btw, adding pics is a joke... no matter the resize they kept failing to load.

Saw it on the Essen Motor Show. Quality was poor imo. Looked like they have not that much experience with CFRP.

It's really pissing me off that there are zero actual functional splitters for this car. Laptime Performance looks closest, but the other options barely even stick out and will provide no benefit on track.

I really wish a company like APR would make a proper one. I like the idea of a carbon air dam with a plastic adjustable lower splitter.
