These M7 splitters though touted as functional are really more of an aesthetic thing than a functional thing, Sneedspeed makes a splitter that is the best of both worlds.

I've seen the sneedspeed one, but that's for the R53. They don't make any sort of splitter for the R56 that I could see.

I bet that front bumper would need replacing when and if the splitter on the sneedspeed splitter somehow snags something on the track.

Another option is the Group 4 splitter:

Track tested and a pretty good price on it as well.

Did you have that installed by a shop or did you do it yourself?

Care to share your data on the validity of that statement?

On another note, does the M7 splitter work with the 2011+ JCW front end?
