Maxton front splitter

[kenreid7]

ive just taken delivery of a maxton front splitter. Can anyone advise on fitting please? Do I need to remove the front bumper? I know some have fitted them already. Thank you in advance

Have never even heard of a Maxton splitter. The most popular splitter option is the Seat Leon Cupra splitter, which you just bung on to the bottom of the bumper with a few self-tapping screws.

This is it here. But it comes with bolts and glue! I'm sure self-tappers would be ok; but I just want to do it right and learn from other people's experiences

When I contacted them they told me part of it was bonded and the remainder was screwed. You don't have to remove the bumper but having an assistant help would be better for alignment.

I think the Maxton one is better looking than the DTM design (and cheaper).

I was chatting about how to fix my seat Leon Capra r splitter... Self tappers weren't on the list. We talked about glue and bolts but I think we're going to rivet it on instead.

Welcome

Did it come with instructions?

Self tappers are fine for this, it's how we used to put Cupra splitter onto the C4s and on most other cars they were not intended for.

The instructions were rather scant. Merely showing where to glue and how to use the glue; and to show which side up it was lol. I guess I was just blind-sided with the nuts and bolts provided thinking that I would have to remove the bumper to fit it correctly

I hope all goes well. Put some photos on here when you've done it

Will do for sure. Thanks

[kenreid7]

fitted by a 'guy' in the know! I love it. At last the front end is a bit more muscular.

[chrisgreen]

Does look very good I must say.

[Stormchaser]

I do like that very much. Nice stance and aggression on the Spaceback

I'm jealous now lol.

Absolutely love that!

There's another thing on my shopping list lol

[Stormchaser]

Is that standard suspension as it looks quite low?
