LCR splitter on

[jasc1988]

heres my new Leon Cupra R front splitter, camera on phone took a bit of a knock so is fubar'd but you get the idea.

Will get some nice shots with a new digi camera in the sales if you lot aint seen enough of it by now

i thnk the leon cupra splitter makes the front end of the car look so much better.

[jasc1988]

/\ agreed its an absolute transformation!, should look amazing when lowered what with the 312's and octy alloys im going to be well chuffed

[TDi Vrs]

i c you have the octy wheels on in that pic

[jasc1988]

yeah the only thing that needs fitting are my eibachs which will be on in the new year, should look smart

[TDi Vrs]

ive gotta get my springs fitted to and get sum rubber for the octy wheels

[jasc1988]

hmm great minds think alike!! your car sounds awesome, wouldnt mind a strut brace.

You do need a Helix clutch and fly though, those things bite like fook

Did the splitter cost alot, and was it easy to fit?

I really like that

[Mossman]

Looks superb! Something I will be doing in January!

[jasc1988]

Splitter was £20 and so many pence from seat but since as i had no change Seat gave it to me for £20

I fitted it with 15-20 self tapping screws, i used some super duper flat headed galvanised ones.

theres a guide for this mod!

I jacked the car up and sat it on axle stands to do this job, (£15 from halfords)

All you need is a hacksaw (trim splitter and cut off 2 prong things)

i used a 5mm drill bit to drill the splitter for fixing holes and a 3mm drill bit to drill through bumper. then simple jsut screw away.

Easy peasy job to do

[Kiwi-VRS]

Let me know when you want to do mine.........

[jasc1988]

it isnt hard, all in all i think it took me around an hour to jack up sit on axle stands etc and i was in a rush too so grafted away like a real trooper

tidy

Ye waiting for the clutch to start slipping, then i will start saving lol:)

[jasc1988]

you lucky bugger, cost me around £1,000 that i didnt have. put it all on the credit card, yikes!

[TDi Vrs]

I'm not looking forward to the day when it starts happening, but on the upside it may not cost me as much as i wil fit it myself.

[ultra_joel88]

did you have to cut v's in the corners as in the guide?

I tried lining mine up today, doing it on my own is going to be a bugger.

No i didnt cut v's, i did it by myself! wasnt too hard just a bit frustrating, i trimmed down the 2 centre pieces as stated in the guide but i didnt see the need to cut it, it fitted rather well.

I just marked the centre of the bumper and splitter and then lined them up!

would be a lot easier with a hand though

is your camera cracked?

splitter looks awesome tho, they really compliment the fabias front end.

[Mossman]

BTW, is the front VRs badge a new Octavia one? Also, is it easy to remove the old one and fit? Thanks in advance

Yes that is the new octavia badge. Its easy peasy to swap over, just prise off with a screwdriver then stick the new octavia mounting plate to the grille with some strong PVC glue, i just used superglue then you stick the new badge to the new mounting bracket, comes in a set . Its a big improvement

Yeah camera is cracked, getting new one tomorrow in the sales though

[Mossman]

Many thanks for the badge info - can you get these ordered from a dealer ? I presume you can

yes they will have them. They shouldnt be too dear! i got them thrown in when i got my 312's and octy 17's. You can also get the rear badge from the octy2 which is also a vast improvement

[Mossman]

Looks great! Thanks :-) How is the removal process on the rear badge?
