Carbon Fiber splitter, spoiler and side skirts?
I've been looking around for carbon fiber front splitter, side skirts and spoiler that will match up best (fit front bumper, match existing hole pattern for spoiler, etc) with my 2018 RS and if possible attach via OEM hardware with no drilling!
I was wondering if anyone has added these carbon fiber body pieces on their RS and if so which one did you get (links please) and how well did it work out (pictures tell 1000 words). How much modification was required if any? Thanks in advance for your help!

Remember if you put a carbon fiber splitter on the car, and it gets damaged, which it invariably will, you can't repair it. You can't match the weave that is originally set up in the part. It will have to be sanded, filled and then painted, and will end up looking jet black so you've wasted the carbon fiber look, because it will no longer have that "look".
The rest of the parts are fine in carbon fiber because they don't get smashed against parking ingots....… |

I plan on getting those parts as well but will wrap them.using the 4D carbon fiber wrap from VVIVID. It almost looks like real CF and you can easily replace it if needed. Plus, you only need to get the parts with primer only, no need of paint.

That front splitter is definitely sharp! Is that spoiler also anderson carbon fiber? I like the style of it but I was worried it would leave exposed holes after removing the stock RS spoiler.

We carry Anderson Composites as well as other brands. IMO, Anderson fits amazing. Splitter, side skirts, and diffuser wont be a problem, The problem is depending on your car, the spoiler may have different mounting locations. The ZL1 an SS have a wing while the V6 cars usually have the blade style spoiler.
