I need to get my hands on that splitter, the gloss black lower grilles, and those Recaro seats!

That current exhaust setup with a catless dp would sound amazing! the cat just limits the flow too much to really appreciate that muffler!

Me too! I want that splitter badly. I found it on AliExpress and it's like $300 but shipping is $200, I wonder if we can get a few people and split the shipping. Also found the gloss black grills. Do you have quad exhaust ?

No I do not have the quad exhaust. I dont really wanna pay 1.5k for the remus so I was thinking about making one myself. Might do a muffler delete or just a universal flow master or something.

If a few more people want that splitter Id be happy to do a group buy.

I have the gloss black kidney grilles but did you find the lower vent grilles?

There are a few guys one our FB X3 group page that did muffler delete with quad tips and it looks and sounds great. Not too loud at all. I want to do the same, but I have a cat-less dp that I want to put on, so it might be too loud all together deleted.

I checked with Aliexpress and the shipping multiples with each lip you add to cart, so you'll be paying $500 no matter if we order 2 or 10. Their manufacturer has an eBay page with this lip listed, I'll try to reach out through eBay and see what prices we can get if we buy 10.

I found the bezel grills on Aliexpress but they are a part of a X4 exterior upgrade package that consisting of front lip (which would fit X3) and rear diffuser (will not fit), but when I reached out to the seller, they refused to break it up and said they cannot sell separately.

Hamann sells the grills (its their original design) but they are $500 plus shipping

These are 3.5. Not insanely expensive and look like they will work nicely.

I saw those but I don't like the big gap between the tips. If you look at the total width of the dual tip it's 7 3/4 inch, which means there's 3/4 of an inch between the tips, should be 1/4 or 1/2 inch maximum to look good.

Good call! I never saw that until you just pointed it out. Have you seen anything similar with less of a gap?

And I think i'm gonna try and weld up the exhaust myself so If you could get some pics from the guys in the FB group that would help alot!

All the studie cars are very nicely done. I do wish the videos were subtitled, cause I don’t have a clue what they’re saying...but I manage lol.

I have wheels on the way currently, vmr v801s. Once I have these on and springs installed, I’ll be finishing aero mods. I’m personally a big fan of the AC Schnitzer spoiler elements. Doesn’t seem like anyone had installed these

I have these currently (replicas, at least) and had the first lip in the thread before that. There are pics on my instagram if you want to see @ alpine_f26. Thinking about switching to the hamann one - I like the fins on the sides.

Are you selling the lip or splitters by any chance?

actually I spoke to someone at Maxton Design, which is what all those parts are in that link and they told me that if we buy 10 front splitters, shipping would be same price as buying 1 splitter. They have a 35% off today too!

Anyone down for a group buy ?
