McLaren 540C/570S (2015-2020) Prepreg Dry Carbon Fiber Front Lip

Engineered for McLaren 540C/570S Sports Series owners (2015-2020), this Prepreg Dry Carbon Fiber Front Lip adds an aggressive splitter character to the front bumper lower edge and contributes downforce to the front axle at speed. Manufactured in Europe to factory-spec mounting tolerances and quality-controlled by BYC Performance, this McLaren 540C carbon front lip bolts directly to OEM mounting points.

Matched to the high-speed character of the 540C/570S 3.8L V8 twin-turbo M838TE engine (540C 533 hp, 570S 562 hp), the aggressive lip/splitter geometry is both an aesthetic and aerodynamic upgrade.

Key Features

• Prepreg (Dry) Carbon Technology: Autoclave-cured under high heat and pressure.
• Sports Series Aero: Aggressive splitter / lip profile on the front bumper lower edge.
• Downforce Contribution: Adds front-axle downforce at high speeds.
• High Strength: Very high strength for its weight.
• 2x2 Twill Carbon Weave: Glossy authentic pattern under UV-protective clear coat.
• Direct OEM Fit: Bolts to factory 540C/570S front bumper lower mounting points.

Prepreg (Dry) vs. Wet Carbon

Prepreg carbon is autoclave-cured under high heat & pressure, a more consistent weave, a controlled resin ratio — the production method widely chosen in motorsport.
