Front splitter choices ph2 182

[OL11TAL]

Hi,

I've got an inferno orange 182 (2005) with a ktec carbon splitter. It was about dead anyway but after I hit a rabbit at speed it split in two. The options I see are the genuine replacement and the fabia splitter (http://www.skodaparts.com/product/front-bumper-splitter-spoiler-fabia-2007-2011-33930).

Are there any other options I've missed? What "modifications" need to be made to the fabia splitter?

Loads of screws to hold the Skoda one then cut off the end with a sharp knife. Job done. Or pay over 10x the price for a Cup splitter and it'll smash into bits as soon as you touch a kerb.

I got a gloss black GRP one from streamline carbon, not cheap but much more sensible and durable than the carbon ones that are as useful as a chocolate tea pot!! :up:

At the bottom it says GRP, different finishes, colours etc...

I've just put a splitter from a seat cupra r on mine...love it!

That GRP one is way too expensive. I'd rather keep my broken carbon one on trying to decide between the cupra r and the fabia!

I quite like the megane one, its like a bigger oem cup one..

I personally can't stand the cheap nasty plastic of the fabia type splitters, gloss black GRP looks so much more stylish although I know not everyone wants to spend that much and that's fair enough. Mines been on 3 years and still looks like new so I feel it was worth the money, particularly for me as my wheels are gloss black and it matches nicely..

The espace splitter is another cheap option if you can find it used.

Just fitted my cupra splitter on the weekend

Great numberplate!!

Cheers! Not as many RS kicking around down here, so a bit easier to find a good one!

I've had the Fabia one on as prefer it over no spitter at all... but compared to the OE Cup one I hate it.

The Cup one looks miles better, but I'm too scared to fit it and smash what is second hand gold dust, may have to raise the suspension a little I think

Apologies for reviving the thread. I bought the larger 307 splitter but I'm having second thoughts about fitting it as I'm going to be a bit ocd about the gap. What's the lowest clean looking splitter? I'm going to wrap the centre of the bumper so I think something plain and smooth will look the best.

I'm also planning on getting the grill, mirrors and fog surrounds sprayed satin black.. Is spraying the splitter a good idea or will it come off/chip and look a bit naff?
