Front Splitter - Yes or No?

Featured Replies

Cheers for the pic. Can we see some side-on shots and one taken a bit further out, at a 1/4 angle - if that's OK?

I think it looks good :thumbup:

Had a chance to look on the PC today and I really like it :thumbup: now I'm gutted there isn't an option for pre FL. :(

Modded the picture to give members an easier viewing experience.......

I do think it would look even better in gloss black though. B)

I will do but at the moment I'm thinking I might need floatation bags to get the car home it's raining so hard!!

Yeah, the more I look at it, the more I like it. It had the litmus test of work collegues this morning and found universally in favour. One of the guys said "that looks so factory you wonder why it didn't come as standard".

I'm still unsure about the finish - do I leave it alone, do I get it colour coded or do I get it sprayed gloss black. Can't decide. To be honest it will probably stay as is......

Looks good to me :) you could always just give it a spray with some son of a gun and that will wput a shine on it....thats what i use on my LCR splitter :)

K:)

I would say not to colour code, I think that would look carp if I'm honest. Gloss black defo yes, or wipe it over with a good tyre dressing - Megs Endurance Tyre Gel for example. :thumbup:

Looks good! Couldn't fit one on mine though - i'd knock it off on the first speed bump. :giggle:

My view would be to leave it unpainted.

I'd have had it colour coded I think although it does go well with the black honeycombe.

My thoughts are this.

Get the grille colour coded but leave the splitter as is.

If you colour coded the splitter it would look too long in the face, whereas by colour coding the grille the black splitter would look better

Yup, have to agree with that logic. :thumbup:

If my car was lowered, this wouldn't be a good idea right?

As it's looks so good!!!

It's not that low - only adds about 30mm to the bumper!

So if you fitted the same springs as mine the bottom of your splitter would be 60mm lower than standard? :o

DO IT!!!! :thumbup:

That would be great in the snow - you could clear the roads for the rest of us.

:p

The VRS is so high I dont think speed bumps will be a issue, Wardth the car looks great. anyone fancy a group buy on these? I could PM the ebay seller ?

I run a splitter on my track car subaru without issues just take any speed bumps very slow.

Nice one! To be honest the seller has been pretty good on email - I sent them a bit of a s&itty one the other day as it arrived without screws, glue, brackets or instructions (the auction states it comes with all of that) and they have sent them to me with a nice apology!! Of course it's not difficult to fit but at first sight you think "crikey thats not light, does it have any brackets?!!!

I simply fixed it with screws although I did add more than the pre-drilled holes suggest.

It was a nice change to find something like this that does not require nausing about to get it to fit!
