After having already searched for quite a while, I thought I had finally finished the ordeal and procured a set of reproductions to put on one of my coupes, but alas - the splitters are poorly fitting to my coupes front end, and the wing lacks hardware. Though I suppose I could save a bit of cash, potentially, by just getting hardware for it, I'd be interested in picking up a better example than the one I received.
So, looking to buy either genuine German plastic, or (good quality, only, please!) reproductions of one or both of these items. Thanks for your time, and have a good one.

Who made the splitters? I recall the Motion Motorsport reps were pretty good, though I don't know if they are still available. I think cemalakcal was selling the wing.

How bad do you want them?
White is Right, Steel Grey is OK, but Estoril is the only color that truly matters.
I like Coupes.
Badly enough to make another thread about them. I know of the U.K. route for the splitters, but I have no means of taking advantage of it.

The U.K. lies far to the East! The journey would have me cross mountains of the tallest peaks, and the shearest of drops! The flatlands the size of an entire continent, and offering little in means of sustaining the lives of those who dare tread across it! Through urban sprawls, dried corpses of dreams and promises from better, more naive times... whose inhabitants curse foreign travelers caught trespassing in their neighborhoods, shouting terrible and ancient spells of horrific powers; "'ey! I'm walkin' ovah heyuh! Wai I oughtta, 'ow 'bout deez wutz!" Misfortunes that carries in the blood, spanning generations. And then the final trial of this merciless gauntlet- a vast body of water, of such immense proportions that no man may swim from one shore to the other without first succumbing to the burning void awaiting all those who fill their lungs with the undrinkable liquid death.
And then there's the language divide. What the heck are they talking about? "Oi guvnuh six pence fo a shoe shine it is it is!" Pffft... what? I ain't no ones mate, guy. You want a whaaaaat? A cigarette? Just friggin say that, for crying out loud.

Jeepers get over yourself..........
I can recommend CemalAkcal's splitters they are a fraction of the real thing, perfectly executed, come with a simple fitting kit and are an exact fit. Payment is easily arranged thru Paypal, and fast courier delivery was a plus for us here in Christchurch New Zealand (to the extreme south of where you are JeffyD.

Yes, it is. It shouldn't be this difficult but we have Photobucket to thank for that. Some of the other free options out there are not as reliable in my experience as photobucket or imageshack once was...
We are discussing other options to try to make image sharing and hosting as easy as possible.
In the meantime you can, of course, attach images directly to the post and they will be uploaded and hosted by bimmerforums.

I don't see an option to upload the pic directly like the old days.
All I see is a box for a web address.

Believe you me, I am already SO OVER myself. Why won't it stoooop?
Im pretty sure cemal ain't making none no more. So, it looks like I'm SoL on that front. Or maybe he was just talking about the spoiler. It's confusing. I'm kind of stupid, so many things are confusing.
Also, I agree. Make bimmerforums great again! Put the 'For Us' back in forums!

JeffyD,
You already have some splitters? If so, heat them in the oven, one at a time, then grab 'em with leather gloves, run, don't walk to your coupe of choice, and push the heated splitter firmly against the bumper.

Instructions unclear - attempting jogging but burnt hands when pressing car into leather gloves in my oven with a split bumper. Tried crying, but fairy godmother will not be manipulated. Send for reinforcements. Tell my cats I love them, and they may eat my face... but not at all once! Their tummies are sensitive and they shouldn't eat their feelings just because they're bored. it's a bad habit. Blargh

This thread is like a creative writing post-off, and JeffD is winning.
In the pursuit of these requested items, a completely genuine ordeal, I assure you, I took time to respond to people's replies in the thread which I created to aid my noble quest. Strangely, as this is an uncommon treasure, there hasn't been a huge influx of offers made to me. So far, one possible but unlikely lead - a matter of intuition telling me this particular coupe keeper has a higher number in mind than I am willing to go, and not due to a lack of serious interest, I assure you. Responding to people, even if in a silly manner, seemed more polite than ignoring them.
My apologies for not taking your suggestion of more or less melting the splitters onto my bumper more seriously. In that vein, "I'm not going to do that. I don't have access to a clear path from an oven to my front bumper, and even if it technically could work in theory, Ill opt to work with more pliant parts instead. They do not line up with the bumper well enough that heat alone will bring them into line reasonably. Thanks for your suggestion."

Hi, I am still looking for these. I'm guessing my best chance is to have a middleman in the Uk to ship the splitters to, and then shipped to me. So, let me know if you would like to assist in such an endeavor and we can talk handling fee! Thanks!
Beyond that, the spoiler isn't high on my priority list, since I can make the repro more than likely work with some new hardware, but drop me a line if you have any leads, or any on offer, please. Thanks.
Finally, I'd like to point out that, for anyone who is unsure, yes - I am actually in pursuit of these items, no - I am not doing some sort of weird masturbatory creative writing exercise here... and no, I am not trying to purposefully rub anyone the wrong way. I don't know why anyone would get that impression.
Anyway, thanks for the time, take it easy, keep it sleazy, and so on.

JeffyD, I have a lead on a genuine ACS spoiler. It'll be in my possession in 2 weeks time if you're interested. Send me a PM
