RKP F10 M5 "McRae" Splitters are here!

mattkim85 · 12-20-2013, 02:44 PM

If I'm lowered on H&R's will these be an issue?

The reason I ask is, I usually have to go in diagonally up on a driveway, but with these, I might just run out of option but to go straight in.

Eh yeah, that won't be happening! I HATE Dougie Park's

Anyone else I can contact? I suppose I could ask my dealer that I use to contact them

Looks great, IND - price painted body color azurite black?

lol! Not while it has those stripes on it! What gives? Doesn't suit the look. Would look sweet on just plain solid white. M5 form lends more towards subtle mods.

Driving diagonally will always help prevent scraping so I would encourage you to continue doing that even with these splitters installed.

The splitters are no lower on the sides of the bumper than the original M5 bumper itself. They simply take the lowest line on the sides of the M5 bumper and stretch it toward the center of the car, so that the center of the bumper is slightly lower. The ground clearance is not dramatically affected.

Does anyone know how much they actually produde from front..Thanks

jbomb · 12-29-2013, 03:21 AM

Just to say I have got my front splitters (UK) won't be fitting until Monday but I will post a few teaser shots of them in place. My car is MCB so this might add another dimension. First impressions - beautiful quality and the fit looks excellent. It is going to make the front end look extremely angry (in a good way)

Goranot · 12-29-2013, 08:09 AM

Can't wait to see the pics and your opinions..do you think they will be protruding out much

Literally offered them up to the car, installing tomorrow

Goranot · 12-29-2013, 07:26 PM

Looking good..can I ask why you didn't go for the full spoiler like the vorsteiner

avlnch · 12-29-2013, 08:27 PM

@jbomb - since I just broke my neck at your post, figured I would fix the photo for you.

Because...
There are so many pros for splitters! Dont even know where to start

They dont stuck too much towards the front, they are not lower than lowest point on your front bumper
They look awesome and it looks like M performance e9* m3 front splitters!
Etc etc etc

Goranot · 12-29-2013, 08:53 PM

So I did make the right choice..mine should be coming soon as well..

Thanks Aaron, also I would like to thank you for perfect service and delivery on these parts, you have been a star - thanks again.

Goranot · 12-30-2013, 11:35 AM

Any news now you have probably had them fitted and done some miles..

Ny noticeable difference when going over bumps or dipped driveways

Neil McRae · 12-30-2013, 05:52 PM

there won't be any impact on driveways or speed bumps. it literally wraps over the bumper and maybe adds a couple of mm. This is why I wanted them

Goranot · 12-30-2013, 08:35 PM

For a relative newbie it helps considerably with opinions and advise from other members as sometimes with so much being offered it's a balance between aesthetics and practicality and cost effectiveness and not having physically come into contact with most of the products have to make a choice taking into account your own requirements and others experience with them and with this in mind have to give a Big Thankyou to Neil for his help and advise
and am glad I opted for them..

jbomb · 01-03-2014, 08:28 AM

I have been talking to a guy about him creating the 3m templates to protect these. If he comes up with something I will pass on his details for those interested.
This is why I haven't posted pics yet.
Next Wednesday they will be fitted regardless so will post pics.

Goranot · 01-03-2014, 11:05 AM

Thanks ..just keep us updated

Nate@IND · 01-03-2014, 11:16 AM

Just so you guys know we can always ship any RKP part (splitters or lip) with a 3M clear bra pre installed.
