Maxton design parts

[Pessimal]

Does anyone have any opinion on these?

 

I'm thinking of getting the splitters skirts, defuser and the boot spoiler for my grey superb estate.

 

I'm a little torn between gloss black and carbon effect does it look like real carbon at all, or is it fooling no one?

 

I like the idea of carbon with the metallic grey on our car, possibly with carbon mirror shells, although that might be me trying too hard wanting it to look like an RS6 or something!

 

I'm also unsure of which from splitter to get, from the pics I'm struggling to see the differences esp when the pics all show a gloss black splitter which doesn't photograph well!

 

And how have people got them fitted, is it a diy job, or is it better to get maxton or a body shop to fit them.

 

Sorry for all the questions, but thanks for any advice/answers!

Personally I think the carbon “effect” always looks cheap and nasty; they’d have to be colour coded to the car so it’d have to be a bodyshop jobbie.

Gloss black was my go to.

 

the carbon doesn’t look real/3D and looks just like a wrap.

I prefer the gloss black over carbon effect.

 

I've got Rieger front lip and side skirts.

 

The front lip is screwed on with 20 odd screws.

The side skirts use automotive sikaflex adhesive and the same lower screw points as the mudflaps.

I have maxton diffuser and rear splitters on my car. 

 

Diffuser is gloss black, splitters are plastic finish.

 

Installation is pretty straightforward, as long as you have some basic tools, it is an easy DIY job.

 

I also cut and modified the splitters. As you can see from the pics, they are basically flush with the bottom of the bumper. The original design is a bit too boy-racer to my tastes.
