Performance!? FPMSL!

It's purely aesthetics! The Sport bodykit adds no performance gain... Purely looks.

have you heard of aerodynamics? FPMSL

Re: Possible new splitter found!!

why on earth would you pay over £100 for a plastic one when you could have a carbon fibre one from k tec for the same money!?

Its actually glassfibre, i thought it was plastic too.

Re: Possible new splitter found!!

Why wouldnt it fit on a non sport bumper :S

Going by what everyone else has said, its very flexible to will fit pretty much anything

Reason i said that is i absolutely hate my front end, and doubt a splitter would improve it much! Think i'm going to give it a go though, havn't lost out on much if it doesnt look good

Re: Possible new splitter found!!

Anyone fitted one to a non sport yet? Any pics?

 

[Bucko]

Re: Possible new splitter found!!

I'll be popping in and ordering/collecting one on tuesday, assuming they still have them in stock!

I forget how lucky we are in Exeter to have Marsh Barton Trading Estate, apparently it's the largest collection of main dealers in Europe or something like that.

Nice find Squibby

Re: Possible new splitter found!!

It's dark outside but it's about 3cm!

Re: Possible new splitter found!!

Good find, think a trip to the local Skoda dealer on my lunch break tomorrow is needed . Been after a cheap, good looking alternative after my cup splitter got broken on the motorway.

Re: Possible new splitter found!!

Picked mine up this morning. Totally different material to the standard Reno splitter, but looks good to me and I suspect will be slightly more forgiving against solid objects!

Aerodynamics play a part at any speed - stick your head out of the window at 20 mph and see if your hair moves......

It's minimal I agree but the splitter does regulate air movement under the car, although it'd be improved by flattening the underside of the car also - it makes little difference but every bit counts.

Re: Possible new splitter found!!

ps, can someone now find a solution to the steering wheel problem?

This is awesome! Well done sir, making the call tomorrow. Do you need a ramp to install this?

Re: Possible new splitter found!!

Fitted, was getting dark by the time i finished, so excuse the phone pics.

Before:

After:

I actually drilled and riveted it on then trimmed with a new blade. Its on very firmly as I put a rivet on every tab. Those who have purchased will understand!

Re: Possible new splitter found!!

Shed. Looks so much better.

Re: Possible new splitter found!!

Re: Possible new splitter found!!

Just got mine ordered and pick it up on Saturday. Just gutted I spent £40 on a 307 splitter about a month ago. Oh well!

 

[missvavavoom]

Re: Possible new splitter found!!

Getting mine tomorrow, are there holes in the clio bumper ready to screw into, where the original splitter used to sit, any other suggestions on screws?
