Hi
When I aquired the car (182) the splitter was cracked in the centre and previous owner had done a bit of a botch repair with some black silicone stuff?
Didn't bother me too much as I had other things to sort.
B*gger - caught it on a kerbing and it seperated at the centre and is asking to come off, so i took it off, its generally in very good nick but spilt in two with a clean break.
My intention is to repair it as I can not afford (or justify) the supposed Renault replacement.
I am strictly OEM, so my only option is to repair it.
As it is a clean break, it goes back together nicely, but need some 'weld' type glue to fix it back firm enough so I can re-inforce the backside of the break with glassfibre.
I tried 'Pipeweld' - the stuff that fixes PVC pipes together but that didn't work at all - no welding took place! Anybody suggest a glue/weld that will fix this type of plastic - it's a hard plastic of some sort - but obviously it not PVC.
I know all about the Skoda splitter and C/F, but these are not wanted.
Cheers
