Title: Edition 30 front splitter
Post by: Duffmeister on December 03, 2016, 05:15:53 pm

It's probably been discussed a million times but I'm after a front splitter alike the edition 30 or open to suggestions,  but can't seem to find one from a UK seller plenty in the US,  any ideas people?

I'd go for a second hand edition 30 from eBay. As much as some of the aftermarket ones are good, they're never as good as OEM fitment

Sadly sellers want stealer prices or selling complete bumpers for £250 then you'd need to have it painted so is it really worth £350-400+ after painting  :stupid:

I'm in a similar position and pondering what to do. Is there a huge difference between just colour coding the existing splitter and replacing it with an ED30 one? They look a similar size and shape but can't find a decent pic that compares the two.

I think the edition 30 is a bit deeper, but similar in overall shape.
