182 Carbon Splitter fitted

[Wirral 182]

Fitted my air feed and carbon splitter yesterday, and bought some silvertek bulbs from motorworld for 7 quid (bargain). Anyway, took a couple of pics of the dirty car today. I did the work on my drive, but did not realize how low it was, and got stuck trying to get her off the curb. The next door neighbour (about 101 years old, bless his soul, helped me by lifting the front so I could reverse off).

Next to come, in this order: A good wash & clean, a carbon bonnet, wheels resprayed black or anthracite. (Hopefully all by the end of the week).

Looks ace fella, have to get me one of those now to go on my new 182 bumper.

[TimMB]

Jeans with flip flops got to be the worst, lovely splitter by-the-way.

 

[Ali]

humm...Stickers look a bit Busy on the front. Good effort with fitting tho.

 

[Neil G]

Splitter looks good.

Fitted my K-tec one a few weeks ago and decided to remove the bumper too.....took a while but end result is great

Its not so much the jeans, its the socks with flip flops thats the crime !!

How much lower than standard is this Clio? I'm currently on Apex -40s and mine looks similarly low (with splitter fitted), but I've survived over 2 months so far without so much as a scrape on the splitter. Including some dodgy multi-storey car park ramps...

Although I am occasionally worried about it and will be going slightly higher once my FKs arrive :evil:

I think jeans/pants are sound with flip flops, especially in this weather, why you'd be wearing jeans in this weather is another question though. He might have just put his flip flops on to nip outside, not expecting to be more than a couple of mins, hence the socks. Another point is, who is it with the flip flops? my money is on the old neighbour, assuming Wirral182 is taking the photo.

[Batman]

[Ally]

Yup, I'm being a big shytebag but other members can verify that my Clio ain't going to survive any further offroad antics* if I keep it as low as this



* accessing mountain-bike trails and car parks, usually in forests...

Ha ha, the guy wearing the socks is the old geezer who helped me. I was taking the photo.

It's on Apex -40mm, and with the splitter on now, I will no longer be able to park on the so-called drive, so it's gonna be sleeping on the street from now on.

Thank god for that. I can forgive an elderly gentlemen wearing socks with sandals....just about

 

[JoelDee]

Get in, I was right! lol

Kev, get the council round to drop the kerb, if they wont do it/want silly money, get a mate round with a load of concrete, accidently drop it on the road right outside your house, and make your own little ramp up to the drive.

 

[Nick_R182]

Not keen on the stickers. splitter looks cool though!

 

[The Bear]

OP - Looks good, well low!!

Ally - Looks more than a 40mm drop on your car!

I'm debating whether to fit my CF splitter or sell it. There's a fair few speedbumps round here, so don't want to fit it only to smash it within a week. Don't venture onto drives much so that shouldn't be a problem.

What do you reckon - Fit it ot not?:
