D'oh.....Snapped My Front Cup Splitter

[Haybails1980]

Parking up at the dentist this morning and misjudged how close I was to the kerb. As the road was on a downslope and the pavement wasn't I suddenly heard a loud scrape as I parked. D'OH!

Upon reversing the centre section of my front splitter was lying on the ground.

Pics to follow but means I can think about getting the Carbon Fibre one instead...........

Gutting.

As you say gutting but makes way for the Carbon Fibre splitter

* Renault want £128.51 + VAT
* Cliospares want £122 + VAT
* K-Tech want £95 + VAT for a carbon fibre splitter

At £95 it looks like we have a winner tbpfh!

as said in other thread the carbon one will just stone chip and look kinda poo

ouch, no chance of repairing?

 

[Haybails1980]

Repairable?

very symetrical snap!

 

[Bodge!]

quite like it!

Give the carbon one a go. They look brilliant, just an expensive mistake if you hit a kerb again.

This is the reason why a lot of cup packed 182's are missing the splitter, they get broken and not replaced.

looks like the Ibiza splitter now lol

The stonechips don't really bother me.
