AC Schnitzer Splitter ECS

Anyone know if another vendor for the splitter?
ECS just raised it to $420, PLUS $120 shipping.Which is ridiculously high.

I would get the Sneed Splitter, less money and free shipping, but its way too aggressive for my taste,

So is ECS the ONLY vendor selling AC Schnitzer? Vivid Racing only sells BMW Schnitzer products.

No drop ship with ECS, even though Schnitzer is just across town from me.

I ordered mine from their office in CA. Dealt with them on the phone. Don't remember what the shipping was exactly, but I do know it was closer to $20 than $120.

EDIT: Correction. I did get the splitter from ECS, but got the mounting hardware from the CA office. I stand on the shipping costs though. With my Military discount + shipping it was under $400.

Found it:

Sub Total: $380.00
Shipping - (FedEx - Ground): $13.57
Total: $393.57

Good Lord! I just checked ECS website and shipping to me is now $157 and change! I'd go with the S4S. If the ACS part + shipping was $577 when I bought it, I would have never even considered it. I think the S4S looks good especially with the stanchions. Took a while for it to grow on me too. Wish my Grandson hadn't thrown my ACS away, I would've let you have it for $400 shipped, with both sets of mounting hardware.

With that discrepancy, I would give ECS a call and see what’s up. Sometimes their website shipping triggers are wonky.

They probably have the JCW version in stock, but the S version has to be shipped from Germany.

No doubt. Can't believe the ECS Rep on here hasn't chimmed in. Surely it is a typo of some sort..
