I had a cf splitter on my M3 and cracked it within days. This one being made of abs plastic is much more forgiving being flexible. Creeping over speed humps gives me no issues and I back in everywhere when parking as to avoid kurbs. Coming down multistorey carparks is the only time it's caught but very minor scratch underneath. I used the code BABYBMWNET2017 for 10% off MD site only last month so may still work for you.
I want the side skirts now but they are for a GC and unsure if they would fit.

Cheers for the code

Really enjoying the car! Did well at the track and the limiting factor was the old street tires ... really smooth bombing down the straights and well balanced in the corners.

That said, he spent a pretty penny doing all that work to make it look like a M6 on the outside. Even the moonstone paint looks perfect, and he would have had to paint the existing panels and blend in the paint to make it look perfect. (or not, maybe I just can't tell in the photos, but he could have just sprayed the bumpers by itself and installed them without blending the paint)

This is what the car looked like last year: https://www.6post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1424891

Yes! The diffuser was actually my first mod. They were fairly cheap and really transforms the look

New Baby

My newly purchased 2015 650i Gran Coupe M-Sport. It's only has 23K miles, and so far has been a thrill to drive! Looking to do some minor mods to it, so suggestions are welcome. Thanks!
