This is not a great view of the splitter and I will take some more to give you a better view.

Sorry, another stupid question 
When you (referring to M7) say the struts are adjustable, they are adjustable AFTER you install them right? You don't have to take them out and redrill into the bumper, right? Can you explain how to adjust them up and down without unscrewing the whole assembly? Again, my apolgies from a non-mini owner who is so close to pulling the trigger and will get a front splitter! LOL

There are NO stupid questions with regards to auto parts LOL . The struts are actually threaded barrels . To adjust all you do is loosen two nuts and turn the barrel. As you turn it it either retracts the threaded rods or extends them depending on direction. Re tighten nuts and you are good to go.Randy

those lips are supper sexy!
the only thing that is holding me back on buying on, is knowing i drive all most 200 miles aday. I've hit so much crap on the freeways in my golf, and i have a fiborglassed bumper that has been repaired to meny times.
When i move closer to work, i might get one of these for the mini
