Good try boys

But APR works exclusively with M7 when it comes to MINI parts.

As for the Aero kit splitter, and why we have not made one specifically
for it......Very simple, you don't call us, but take all the time in the world
to ***** about it here

I will take another look at the possibillity of making one that is Aero specific.

Well, you don't make one for the aero kit so you can't stop us from talking about making our own. I don't think anyone here has "bitched" about it. I even said I might consider the M7 splitter for my personal car, but with your attitude I don't know if I will. I'm sure Berk and I can find a way to have one made in San Antonio, or at least in Texas. America is a free country and you gotta love that.

Yes you gotta love that.....
But if you read my post it was fairly clear, that if people called us and showed interest........We would make em.

I've had my M7 splitter since it became available two years ago. Still one of the must haves and will always stay on my Mini. Flimsy? I think I'm qualified to say this is absolutely untrue 40,000 miles...exceeded 135mph many time...look like new

found it

Here is the link to the info regarding our splitter and an aero front end.Damn this took a long time to find I have to be honest and say that as you can see from the pictures it is recessed back, similar to the Hamman, and will therefor be less effective than we would like. As Peter said if there is enough interest we could have one made that would extend to the same distance as originally intended. Give us a call.

to Randy at M7

First,



After long hours of work, we will produce front splitters, c/f wing, air scoops and everything else you guys make in half the price j/k

We are not bitching, I would rather buy it from you guys instead of manufacturing one for myself. There will be a serious interest if guys spend some time on this. I promise you, and the whole NAM community is witness, if you make one for Aero Kit, perfect fitment, no modifications, I WILL BUY. I am first on the list.

Hey, man, don't use that "bitching" language, we love you....

Back to topic, I found a way to produce real carbonfiber wings, retail $99.00 got you again, Randy, J/K

At first, I thought the M7 splitter would be entirely CF. Until I really thought about it and then realized it would have also cost 3 times as much and be too brittle for road use, to boot. I'm thankful my M7 splitter has the ability to flex more than pure CF under a live point load (like hitting a curb or parking lot wheelstop). I would've broken mine by now, otherwise.

But don't be mistaken, once that thing is screwed in, and the turnbuckles are tightened, it's pretty damn rigid overall. I've tracked mine at high speeds with no problems whatsoever.

to M7.

Any news on this yet? I mean you've had like half a business day... By now I would think that you would have pricing, a list of applications and dyno numbers

J/K. Mainly just wanted to express interest in the proposed product.
