Fiesta ST2 with Triple R front splitter fitted.

[Matthew]

Hi,

I fitted the Triple R front splitter a week or so ago. Gave the car a well deserved clean so decided to take some snaps..

The car is ace, just keeps getting better. Pulls strong, handles well, seats are quality and its averaging 35mpg in mixed driving. It also turns alot of heads, which I didn't expect...

That looks great, the splitter really finishes the front end off nicely.

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

Looks brilliant

 

[Ash']

Looks great Matt!

 

[Matthew]

Cheers lads. Looks a million times better with the splitter.

Looks like the cars been lowered...

 

[JackJack]

Looks good. Got the triple r stuff on my mk6 good quality stuff.

 

[Jack!]

Looks good, but think it would look even better if they did a full aero-package, with a bit on the skirts etc, because now the skirts and rear look like they're from a 1.0 in comparison to the front.

 

[Gally]

Stunning. Splitters are a must on a lot of cars these days.

1st shot is press worthy showing off the car.

Lovely car.

 

[Paul.M]

I think that looks great, I really like these.

Splitter does definitely make a difference - looks great. Try not using the turbo - the mpg rockets up. Actually don't, it's seriously boring! I do a ten mile round trip commute at the minute and been driving sensibly and the range is heading for 415 miles which is brilliant given that it's on 30 roads in traffic. Done 250 sensible miles and got just under 170 range. Was out on my road bike tonight and one flew past and sounded mint, really low growl and wasn't modded from what I could see.

 

[aucky]

Nice touch!

 

[bigup7]

looks ace mate

 

[Matthew]

Oh, forgot to mention - the noise the turbo makes is hilarious.

On every up shift and lift off, you get some chatter. Sounds mint.

My Golf GTIs didn't do this.

Mine whooshes on every change, sounds so good. Think mountune slightly amplifies it with the airbox.

Do you miss the presence of the golf? I was going to get a mk7 gti before I got this and opted for this because of the reviews etc. as much as I love this I keep seeing mk6/7 GTIs and still want lol!

Not at all. To be honest, a golf is a golf and has little or no road presence.

This little thing, for some reason, is the opposite. Gets looks all the time, and people coming upto it in car parks/petrol stations to ask questions. It's crazy really.

 

[markkram]

Love the splitter. Going to be the first thing that I order once mine arrives. Looks epic.

 

[_Tom]

Much better.

Just use some self tappers yeah? lol

 

[MarkCup]

Looks better without etc.

Glad you're enjoying it. Get some miles on it...at 10k my engine had changed character completely.

 

[DrR]

Really like it! It's hurting me waiting another month for mine, not sure if I should have ordered this blue instead of red lol.

 

[Advikaz]

Nice addition mate.

 

[Matthew]

Much better.

Just use some self tappers yeah? lol

Yeah, used two of the bolts supplied, the rest were useless as you cant get access to the inside to hold the nut.

So... I just used screws, about 15 of them and screwed it on, like a Clio splitter.

Looks better without etc.

It's done about 1,700 at the moment and it feels great already!

It's only ever had Vpower in it too - without exception. Should be doing it some good I would have thought.

 

[RDH]

I was going to put V-power in, but considering it isn't really mine, it gets what ever sh*te is closet.

 

[Matthew]

Ha! I figured the better MPG you get with v power would mean I pretty much broke even..

 

[chris_p]

Looks awesome buddy.

I'll probably buy one of these at some point in the same colour with the same splitter!

 

[Matthew]

Ill let you know which auction it will be at in about 22 months time

 

[Jaff.]

If it's anything like my car the difference between 95 and 99 is negligible.
1 maybe 2 at a push

 

[Alan]

Very nice Matthew

 

[Mork of Ork]

Like it, very FRP-esque.

 

[McGherkin]

Hnnnnnnnngggffffhhhh...

 

[Stan.]

Matthew. Where did you buy your splitter from? Have they an official site? Price?

 

[Matthew]

Jam Sport mate. Google it and it will bring up their website.

 

[deutsche_blonde]

2nd image it actually looks 'ok'. The rest, let's be honest it's a bit of a dog.

Beg to differ. The back isn't great, but it looks awesome from the front/side profile.
