Splitter.

cheers david, im going to get the lcr splitter, i suppose i cold drill and bolt rather then self tapers because i would want to take it off for getting it colour coded?

£18 for the GTi one
£20.02 for the LCR one.

I cut off the slot plastic bits on the LCR splitter and screwed 12 self tapper screws onto the GTi one.

Has it been fitted yet?

It came to £38.11 inc VAT for the 2 of them.

I wanted to be alittle different and kept the 2 slot plastic bits on the LCR Splitter. Cut 2 slots in the bottom of the gti splitter, put them slot plastic bits in (had to cut them slightly shorter) and i then plastic welded the slot plastic bits and the gti splitter together.

I havent fitted it to the car yet, havent had time. Will be fitted to the car either Thursday or Friday as Im on holiday from work those days this week.

There is no difference between using self tappers and bolts. I used bolts in 2 holes to see if there was any difference. There isnt. And you are able to remove the self-tappers once they have been put in!!

From dealers?

From dealers?

Yep from dealers. I just phoned the parts department cos they had to order them in. Its was either £38.11 or £39.11. It wasnt over 40 quid.

ive purchased both, gti spoiler and lcr splitter as they will look nice and new. so is it easier to fit the lcr splitter to the spoiler prior to fitting them both?

Your going to colour code your LCR splitter? Will it not get chipped and scuffed very quickly and look pap?

Ollie

 

[crezz]

yea it might do, dunno weather i will get cc! depends how nice and shiney they will look.

 

[OllieL]

I think your car looks good without colour coding. Id prefer the one i'm looking at to have black skirts and splitter cos I like the look of yours.
How low you going to drop the car? I know some people with them replace them 9-12months cos they get all scuffed - costly if painted.
Save your cash and have your bumper smoothed instead

i like them with the black skirts and that too. i dunno when im getting it lowered, cant go really low because there is so many speed bumps around where i live. i wont actually be able to get home!lol

what lcr splitters?

 

[jenk]

Yep

 

[crezz]

yea well you know! got to give it a go. haha. what i want to do is colour code the gti spoiler/splitter and have the lcr splitter the standard black platic!

 

[jenk]

I suppose that wont look to bad, still not a fan of them. How about trying a VR6 splitter?

Im removing the LCR splitter on my mk4 tomorow to be different

 

[crezz]

have you got a pic of one?

 

[jenk]

If it fitted good with a nice drop that would look double hard!

 

[crezz]

havent i seen someone else on here with one of those, a purple one? does look mean

 

[jenk]

A purple VR6? Or a purple ibiza? Dont think anyone has done a VR6 splitter yet, i was thinking about it.

 

[crezz]

purple ibiza? might of imagined it. What car have you got?

 

[crezz]

naah what i fink i saw was a normal gti spoiler but had been smoothed!
