My DIY Cup splitter

[Kieran..]

well while the car is off the road means i been getting round to doing a few things, first up was spraying my cup splitter

i done it in ford sea grey, i think it will look better once the wheels go anthracite too but i wish id of done it gloss black instead tbh, also i sprayed rear insert and exhaust surrounds sea grey too.

i literately just gave it a quick spray with the jet wash as i didnt have time to detail it like i want to next.

Gloss black would be nice.

That looks tacky imo!

Thats being polite!

 

[Scotty-boi]

f**k me that's bright!!!!
Gloss black mate tbh! Looks like you've done a decent job though!

 

[Russ_16v]

Unfortunately mate to me it looks like when you have plastic bumpers that fade to grey - thats what it looks like has happened to the splitter I think gloss black 100%

 

[Clart]

Not a fan.

 

[Kieran..]

I no my mate told me to do it black but I thought it might come out same brightness as a carbon one, but unfortuneltly not I think I will be taking it off again and doing it black

Makes it look faded a little at first glance. As said gloss black would be ace.

 

[JaredHasNoBrain]

Probably looks better in person, but It looks like the colour on the plastic has faded.

Looks s**t, much better gloss or matte black IMO

Lol at gray. Who would even paint it gray you may aswell have wiped it in polish and let it all dry.

 

[Jekyll]

Agree with the others Kieran that it doesn't suit it. Defo stick with black, either gloss or satin.

Is carbon not grey? Lol I'm just trying different things rather than following everyone else on cs, look at my old iceberg, it's just experimenting

It will be going gloss black in a week or so

 

[s0fty]

No carbon is not grey. It's black with a high gloss finish.

 

[Kieran..]

I was going to do the splitter in carbon but realised I didn't have enough. It is grey and black to be fair.

 

[Chip-mk1]

looks gash, paint it black

 

[James28]

I'd say matt/satin black would look better than gloss

 

[Kieran..]

The more i look at the pictures it does look s**t lol so as I say will defiantly be going black

 

[s0fty]

Its not grey and black tbh I lay up racing boats in carbon fibre as I'm a composite laminator/fitter/trimmer etc.

 

[plymcl172]

looks gash, paint it black

Agree

 

[Lal B3N]

Matte black for the splitter.

Grey looks a bit shite.

 

[Kieran..]

Bumper is off and tomorrow morning it will be gloss black

 

[J22TYR]

Satin Black Splitter & Spray the Fog surrounds satin black too, that would look ace.

 

[Alex5]

spray the bullets silver to break the car up a bit, tad too much black

 

[The Fatty]

so the only thing 'DIY' is the spray job? I was expecting a home made splitter!

 

[Kieran..]

Hahah yeaaa mate somehow they're a deep scratch in it already
