i think the merc wheels look mint! and the splitter is different but works reali great especially with the wheels!

Cheers
Hopefully at the end of the moneth I will be ordering shorter springs for the coilies and getting qider adaptors to space the wheels out a bit!

Ahh, just when i'd got my mind off the vr splitter. That looks awesome mate. Really good, and imo the merc wheels suit too, even if they do look like giant hubcaps nicely done, and dont worry about scraping it, £20 off the bay = win. Cheaper than the lcr spliiter by a bit now too

 

[marcussss]

What did you need to fit the splitter mann?

 

[wenman]

A hack saw, stanley knife screws and some sealant to fill the gap around the top.
Bit of a bodge haha

 

[mlcadman]

splitter looks very good

 

[mlcadman]

had one on an old polo, quite easy to fit but must make sure join is central or it will look poo

The VR6 splitter is on and I'm really happy with it.
It was a pain in the ar*e! But was worth it.
The only problem now is when the car goes lower it is going to be permanently on the floor

Solution.... (If Your A Baghead) Air Ride?

Yep it was a bit of a paint nearly fitted it wonky at first

I would like airride but it's mega expensive, just gonna wear through the splitter instead lol

Wider adaptors have arrived for the rear I will put some pics up tonight.
Also means I have 2 15mm 5x100 to 5x112 adaptors I no longer have a use for

 

[wenman]

30mm Adaptors now on the back.
Might buy 35mm ones and stick the 30's on the front!

Loving That Stance

 

[wenman]

Sits real good, real real good You know you have issues when you chase mm perfection haha.

Just wondering how much of a pig it is to fit the vr splitter fancy one for my pre face lift and seeing as they aren't that expensivel. is it just a case of taking the plastic bit of the standard bumper and a few mods to the vr splitter to make it fit or are self tappers and the like required?

 

[wenman]

I've just bought some 25mm spacers for the front, so we'll see how that looks.
I still think I'm going to want 35 for the back, can't wait to lower it a bit more!
Yea L5FLD its gettin to the point where I think each mm is gonna matter! haha
Minimorri the splitter isa pain but not terrible.
Just take the old one off, trim the tabs on the VR6 one and cut it down a bit.
I fixed mine with self tappers and a bit of sealant type stuff behind it into the grooves of the bumper.
I did that to try n stop it ripping off so easy!

 

[Can I Live]

Tidy car! Hope mines looks half as good as this at some stage!

 

[Minimorri]

Cheers wenman don't want to seem like am copying you but its just better than the lcr for the pre face lifts. so will be ordering a splitter tonight. really like the look of your car like can i live i hope to get mine up to that standard.

 

[wenman]

Cheers both of you to be honest it's not the cleanest car in the world and I think it's far for looking right! haha
I'm not fussed if you have the same splitter as me! Thats like buying and Iphone and saying everyones copying you lol theres bound to be someone else with the same stuff as you somewhere!
Plus as you said it looks much better than the LCR splitter

 

[wenman]

Only a small update, got some 25mm adaptors for the front so it's sitting a bit better but stil not right
And its rubbing up front now so time to start cutting the inner arch up
