On my previous car, a BMW 330, I added what I thought were the 'perfect' splitters: discrete, but just that little bit sporty/aggressive and - crucially - OEM (they were a BMW accessory).

Does anyone know of a company producting similar style splitters for the Eos?

TIA :)

It's a bit like a spoiler for your front bumber. An aerodynamic aid to keep the air from going underneath the front of the car. Helps with the handling.


I doubt they'll be an OEM version for the EOS as it doesn't really have any racing pedigree. I expect BMW have designed them to help with their exploits on track, so can make them available publicly relatively cheaply. I doubt it would make commercial sense to do so for public use only.

You're probably right, though I would settle for a non-OEM piece of kit if it's discreet enough (i.e. none of your carbon fibre rubbish with holes drilled in it and a couple of blue neon tubes to light up the underneath of the car!)

You could try the one from the SEAT Leon CR, SEAT are in the same VW stable. My son fits this to his Ibiza Cupra which uses the same chassis as the Golf, its very flexible so easy to fit.

never seen it fitted to an Eos yet though, however it is only about £20. The only sange is that you need to drill mounting holes on the underside of your bumper.

If you go this way, post some pics afterwards and let us all see.
