I know there are so many post about front splitters for the G87, I was researching for a minimalist lip and came across the one from eas. I’m sure the quality is there but for 800 dollars plus shipping? Should I go with a different look maybe, I was looking at the threads here but some don’t have images. I want to avoid the wings for sure.

Is this the one you're referring to?: https://europeanautosource.com/colle...ler-bmw-g87-m2

I would consider this if they made one for the G42.

Yes that’s exactly it!

I think the general consensus/favorite around here for a "minimalist lip" is the Alpha-N Carbon GT model: https://ind-distribution.com/collect...n-gt-front-lip

Downside with this one, is the price: $2,195 US. Me personally, I think it is the best looking and highest quality "OEM+" option for a front splitter for the G87 on the market, so I took the plunge a few days ago and ordered one. Deep down, I knew I wouldn't be happy with anything less.

Of course opinions on front splitters is highly subjective, but you were looking for suggestions so this is one.

That looks really good! It looks like it came from the factory and that’s what I’m looking for… do you have any pics installed on you car already? They don’t have any side pics on the website

Looks aside, the Lightweight lips offer someone all other lips don't - they can handle the punishment from the roads. A piece of tire or road debris can make a CF lip a distant memory in a split second.

I prefer the minimalist look Lightweight offers, and the abuse it can take.

I haven't received it yet (was supposed to be delivered today, but I'm sure it's delayed due to weather in my area), but once I do and get it installed, will be posting up pics.

If you Google the exact description of the splitter, and look for Images, there are a few pics out there of it, and from the side too. I think there's a post somewhere on Bimmerpost that shows side shots too.

EDIT: found a post here that shows a side shot: https://g87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=2135802

This is great thank you so much! If you could please keep me updated once it arrives.. definitely appreciate the link of the post 👍🏻

This is the only lip I’m really considering Alpha-N looks great but is just too much for a ‘fragile’ CF splitter.

I’m interested in the real world difficulty of installing the Lightweight. Watching for feedback…

I think the Lighweight lip looks pretty good. Only draw back for euro spec cars is having to cut away the stock rubber under spoiler for install.

Agreed and you can buy 4 of them for the price of the EAS.

I can’t believe the price for this!

I had the lightweight lip. It was in fact indestructable. Best lip out there if you want bumper protection from driveway, hit curbs or want curb protection. Its SOLID as a ROCK. I just wish it went from fender edge to fender edge instead of it being so narrow. I wish they made a full size.
It will literally stop your car dead in its tracks if you roll up to park and hit a curb stopper.

Really good to hear that it’s worth the money then, I think I’m going to go for it then… thanks

Received my lightweight yesterday from EAS. Really solid piece. Instructions still a little confusing as the one provided is for an M3.

[Whytar]

I went with the Aeroflow Dynamics option because I had to factor in the reality that this item will be absolutely abused where we live.
Therefore price was a major factor when considering my local conditions.
It also doesn't lower the front clearance area as much as some others.
Just my preference... of course everyone has varying criteria.
