I've had this splitter sat in the shed for months and finally got it out, cleaned it up and fitted it today. I had to respray it as it was a bit scratched but I'm very happy with the result. Now I have to be extra careful getting on and off my driveway... a bit of a drop as the wheels go into the gutter!  Rich. |

Not at all! There were marks for the holes already on the splitter. I drilled these out with a 6mm drill. I had no fittings with it, so I bought a pack of M6 bolts (the flat head slotted variety). I then jacked up the front of the car so I could work from underneath. I postitioned the splitter and clamped it in place to check it was aligned correctly, then drilled through the splitter holes into the bumper, put the bolts through upwards (6 in all), tightened the nuts up, removed the clamps and hey presto! The whole job took 20 minutes... ;D

Well Rich, you could of course say that the splitter is straight, but the car is wonky!
