Skoda splitter disaster

[.GAZ.]

I'm confused.

 

[Stunty]

I'm confused.

By the hatred towards this fellow Clio owner?

 

[LiamR172]

Duck tape will fix it mate...

 

[RDH]

Isn't it common knowledge that your meant to cut the Skoda splitter down so it fits properly?

 

[@Spoonie]

So in summary it was your own fault for removing screws that shouldn't be removed?

No you dont, you take the arch liner off...

 

[Joe#]

Just lol:banghead:

As least you've learnt something though.

 

[RDH]

I'm pretty sure that instead of that you just cut it down. I could be wrong. Either way it is his own fault.

And I'm pretty sure that it would be cheaper to buy a second hand RS bumper.

 

[not normal dan]

You'd be cheaper getting a second hand bumper as said, but next when you remove something put it back. Expensive lesson.

 

[The Fatty]

lol at this. theres a guide on here and everything. Why would you remove screws and expect it to be ok?! Almost everyone just cuts notches into the splitter to go 'around' the screws.

 

[Mike_RS]

Gutted mate.. Cat C?

We're not dealing with 'almost everyone' though. This is Jordi. A guy that promotes domestic violence and is possibly dumber than a carrot.

 

[SC03OTT]

Pretty insulting to carrots tbh...

Is he related to you??

 

[Austin-182]

Whyeveryone hate jordi, whats he done?

Bad luck though mate, could be worse so dont worry to much

 

[Will.]

He annoys people in Football chat (I think, I don't enter the fag zone) therefore he's a r****d in life (probably is tbh)

 

[Bluebeard]

Andy Carrol, Lee Bowyer, Joey barton.... All have been defended by Jordi as being 'misunderstood'. When in fact they are supercnuts.

 

[RDH]

That and telling someone who had a 7 year old 182 on 50,000 that had never had its cambelt done that, 'he shouldn't really worry about it because it's only done 50,000 so the belt should be alright for another 20,000.' Muppet.

 

[Vish]

The level of retardation is high in the OP. It's the easiest thing to fit the splitter, couldn't imagine anyone doing it wrong, until now of course.

I still haven't fixed mine mate since hitting a hare, my wheel arch liner is split and currently stitched with cable ties, also got a cracked splitter and a cable tied under tray. FML. This was all because I hit a hare.

Hi matey. Been quoted £42 plus Vat for the plastic wheel arch liner from Renault. Plus £100 for the bumper to be fixed, so about £150 in total which is a nightmare really.

Did you get quoted on the damage you did on yours? is it cracked like mine?

Oh and also, came back from Tesco Saturday, and come cnut has smashed my door mirror, so its smashed the glass on it. I need a new door mirror glass costing me £20 plus VAT quoted from Renault. Pissed me off coming back to that a day after this with the bumper happend!

How is it being fixed? Is it being welded? If its just fibre glassed and fillered it will crack again as the bumpers are very flexible.

I don't know why i'm wasting my breath, you won't listen.

 

[JayR]

You'll regret that.

Mark my words.

LOL.

Only you Jordi.

Since when have you had a 182?

 

[GoldenMonkey]

I personally wouldn't pay £100 to repair a bumper which will only break again! I'd buy another one off eBay/here if poss.

 

[jamesd1263]

Arch liners tend to break easy on these things I've found out! Never mind
im sure you'll get it sorted. Without too much trouble.

Luckily it hasn't done that much damage to the bumper itself. There is a small crack on the bottom part of the bumper underneath the lower front grill but apart from that its all the plastics which have been ruined. going to cost £200 for all the parts, which i can't afford at the moment hence it not being fixed yet. So at the moment it is not a very mint looking Racing Blue unfortunately which sucks. I will get round to getting it sorted once i have some spare dollar.

 

[Jordi17]

LOL.

Since Feb this year.

Enjoying the 200 jaybo?

 

[JayR]

Good stuff chap, you got yourself a real car now!

I am indeed mate. Massive mistake trying the Fiesta but you live and you learn.

 

[jamiemgreen68]

i had a similar thing happen to mine a couple of weeks ago...mind you that was because i merked a fox

Lol. You merked a fox. Poor thing. Animals do some damage to cars. My mate hit a pidgeon before. Completely trashed his bonnet.

Hope you manage to sort it though jordi. As others recommend, get another bumper rather than repairing it, it will only crack again

My old college tutor hit a deer and it wrote off his 3week old 3series!!
