Hamann Splitters for the Beast on Ebay, but for only $200? I thought they are $850 from Wheel Power??? Can anyone tell if they are original? If not, and they are replica's, how much do you think they are worth?Hamann Splitters

I believe that they are the counterfeit ones. To be honest, I would have no problems with purchasing fakeys so long as they fit. After some paint and sanding, you cannot tell the difference.

This always reminds me of the guys on eBay selling DINAN badges made froma the NISSAN PATHFINDER badges

Hmmm, on second thought, I wouldn't buy them. They seem too big.

I don't like them. They look crude, not fine enough for the M5. Sort of cheapen it.

Pardon my ignorance guys, but what are Hamann Splitters? I looked at the picture on ebay and their use is not obvious to me.

Thanks.

Thanks for the information. Won't be anything I'll rush out and buy. Might be a nice addition to the neighbor kid's Acura however.
