I kinda like it. A bit different from the splitter that many people opt for but still reasonably subtle. What's other peoples opinions?

If I was to get one, how would I go about doing it - I can only find one pic and thats on JE designs site. No price or option to buy....

Oh i totally agree the lights are gash.

It is bolt on (as is the LCR splitter) you're right... - i think on a darker colour like platinum or black it wouldn't stand out as much though...

Of course it'll probably cost a lot more than the standard LCR splitter and still get ripped off on speed bumps/car park ramped etc.

Looks a bit chavy as well, mainly the side bits.

I like it. Then again my tacky chav limit has gone up considerably since that ghastly yellow beast we saw yesterday i think.

each to their own.

It will be expensive and prone to damage. I might just go with a LCR jobby.

p1tse, yeah that is my car. The wheels are different now (those ones went back due to the finish going manky). It was taken in Bristol in front of the Bristol and West building near the river. Nice place for photos.

The wheels were ACE 184's. Think it was the road salt that killed them.

Have these wheels now...

The LCR splitter isn't a "bolt on" mate, it just pushes in with lots of force and patience.
I would leave it personally, but at the end of the day you must like it enough to consider it, and it is your car, so do what YOU think is best, but NOT the lights ;)

I think you'll find it IS a bolt on mod unless you have a Cupra R or FR+...pray tell me where the fixings are on my FR ;)

Have emailed JE Design, awaiting a reply. I expect it'll be prohibitively expensive.

the ACE wheels looks great.
shame they didn't last, think i know which ones they are but never saw on the car, only pic on it's own.

do you know of a more durable wheel similar to yr old ones, in style?

leave the front JE splitter alone i think, as looks too bolt on and stuck on
