I will call dibs on this from the sponsor side, I will need to work out how long this will take to build the mould and what to charge per piece, I can update the thread with the $$ and how long by tomorrow afternoon.

Do you guys think 15 to 20 people would be interested?

There were plenty of guys wanting this awhile back... pretty sure there is still some interest... I was thinking of adding a VCSL 1 piece to my OEM but I knew it would take some fab work. Here's a shot of a member's OEM euro bumper w/ VCSL 1 piece:

The easiest route would be sourcing through V. for the lip since they have the mould already, provided the members don't mind the fab work involved in fitting it. The original design was for the CSL style front bumper.

I hope the members here know that the pricing for this will not be equivalent to what V. charges for it when combined with a bumper purchase. I believe provided a CSL bumper is purchased the upgrade to a 1-piece splitter is something like $100 bucks or less...

That front splitter cannot be made for $100 bucks without additional margin from another point of sale (like a bumper).

If I was to build this I would be way more than that.

You are correct... V charges around $300 or so for just the splitter. I think the majority of members who wanted this just wanted the carbon splitter. The only problem with that was that you would have to cut into the OEM bumper to get a secure fit. Unless you can make one that can screw in from the bottom and use some sort of adhesive for the top, which might not be the best fit. Or make an entire bumper and splitter which would obviously cost more...

I have a couple more shots from different angles on my laptop. I'll try and post em when I get off work. It actually looks very good from all angles! If you'll notice, the tabs on the top are where it needs to get either cut into the bumper or shaved off.
