LCR Splitter

[CupraStoo]

Trying to fit mine this morning

How the Fu*K do you line it upif i put the middle towards the edge of the bumper, the edges and corners stick out to far, but if i put the edges right, the middles sits too far back!!

anything mechanical im a geniarrse with

this has stumped me, and im gonna lose my rag with it before long!

any advice greatly appreciated!OBviously a cupra bumper

Make sure its central at the front with the clips, saw them off, screw in, then bend to fit around the bumper and saw off the ends to fit snug with the bumper.

Simple

But then again when I rip mine off on a weekly basis, it does become easier each time I fit it!

I have to say cuprastoo you do have anger issues every thread you are loosing your rag or similar.

It's ALOT easier on the Mk3's bud cos your bumper are a lot flatter underneath and a lot squarer. (no offence of course!)

I must admit I did my last splitter in stages as it was freezing outside. Left some screws to just hold it on then slowly put 1 in each day till it was done lol.

The MK4 Cupra bumper is also flatter underneath, and alot squarer than a pre-facelift/facelift bumper mate

MK4 Cupra bumpers + LCR splitter = the sex imho

Its easier to fit the LCR splitter to a Cupra bumper than a none cupra bumper

But then again its not hard to fit a LCR splitter to a none cupra bumper really either!

ill do it one day, just not today!

now im struggling to find a decent route into the cabin on the drivers side

I done mine a few weeks ago. Its a little harder on the CUpra becasue the bumper isn't flat on the bottom. It took me and a friend to do mine, impossible to do it well on your own.

But it does look A LOT better with it on

The cupra bumper is flatter than a pre-facelift bumper mate at the bottom

Iv'e fitted two LCR splitters on my own, and both were perfectly fine!

I know a few others that do it, just need to take your time!

ive given up for now

im still struggling to find a decent place to get some vac hose thru on the drivers side

 

[Guinness]

I did both my pre-facelifts fine. Think its all to do with how good you are with the old screwdriver.

 

[Elfman]

i fitted one to my 05 FR on wednesday, took me and a mate about an hour to do, though we did have a pit so was easier to hold screw etc. just take your time, it'll all be good

Are u using silicone vacuum hose through to your boost gauge?

 

[Altech]

Mine came pre-fitted! Cheers Guinness! All i did was add 4 spacers in the middle part of the splitter to make it sit straight.

I wonder if it does create any downforce at speed?

 

[T. Spark]

old screwdriver.

Electric
