M performance splitter - what’s in the box?

Mine has arrived, no bag, just wrapped in foam and no fixings, the dealer says they come like that and the screws to bolt together and fix to the number are extra?

Also suggests the spoiler and lip have to be beta linked?

Exactly as you described. Poor packaging - mine arrived scratched with the box torn to shreds. I assumed the fixing kit had fallen out as well but turns out you have to order separate.

Ended up going aftermarket which was packed amazingly and came with the fixing kit! Quality was on par with OEM too.

Mine came well packaged to be fair, wrapped inside a foam padding in the box, well taped.
It did state on the ad that it was Splitter and Fitting kit though

Screws and rivets were 8 quid, I mean, really!

Got some strange tale about changing emission rules meaning the parts don’t come with fitting kit, can’t get my head round it, but the parts were quite heavily discounted, so can’t complain too much

Thinking of the autoid diffuser as it’s all CF

Where did you buy them from and what were the prices? I'm looking to buy them for my G21 M340i that should arrive within a month hopefully, lockdown dependent.

Seems a bit odd not to supply the fitting kit but maybe a way of just making a little extra.
I guess like you say, the decent discount kind of takes the sting out of £8 for a fitting kit.
Like always, different dealers, different rules!

I looked at a couple of Auto ID bits, but decided to go with the OEM stuff in the end...
I'm happy with the Gloss Black trim and Carbon splitter as it goes well with my shadow line trim of the Plus.
You're in a 340i I guess as the Auto ID full carbon diffuser is for that...

Yep

Just the black splitter, I was looking at auto ID carbon splitter and spoiler, but I prefer the oem spoiler and I couldn’t face trashing a CF splitter, in the end it’s cheaper for the two oem parts and the AID diffuser, might have to wait for that though
