fitting help with LCR splitter on LC

[armo]

just got my splitter and im confused to how im gonna fit it, does it have to be hacked to bits, there are loads of clipping points on it that have no relevance to my bumper, and also in the centre there are the large clipping points that i can only assume need cutting off? am i right in what im thinking, how do they fit lol?

Cheers

yeah cut all the tabs off and I just cut down the two centre bits so they were level

cut some V shapes in the corners so they bend nicely and don't put stress on the screws so they rip out the bumper, might not have to as yours is a leon already tho

and get self tapping screws for the bumper =]
only put 4 or something in incase you scrape it don't want the bumper damaged!

cheers dude, im gonna have to be careful here so it doesnt wind up looking **** lol

^^ Fook that Captain!

Get it posted! I need to do mine once weather gets a bit better!

I stick masking tape to the bumper and the splitter then measured half way and marked that point.

I actually think the splitter looks better ok the LC than the LCR! Though without it the LCR would look daft.

im looking forward to getting it on like, il give you a pm captain, so you dont get laughed at lol, if it works mate you can all laugh at me

I drove mine onto bricks which gave me that little bit extra lift to fit =]
would definately recommend, I don't have a jack/axle stands
just use a tape measure lol

Did my message make sense armo? You can post up here if you want I can't seem to cut and paste my message?

 

[CupraRmark]

can you post up that message and info for the fitting ive also got 1 to fit......i was just going to use masking tape to use to locate centre and i was going to try and cut the small square's for the tabs to fit in nicely and a a couple of little self tappers for the sides

 

[Captain Cupra]

Will do I'll be on a computer later so I will, I'm on tapatalk for iPhone just now and I won't let me cut and paste.

Can i just ask, ive also fitted the splitter on my car but on one side of the bumper theres a slight overhang. Did anyone else have this problem or should it fit perfect? I fitted this to a standard LC. I dont want to be cutting it off incase its supposed to be equal on both sides without cutting it.

Ive read that but it doesnt mention anything about cutting, but like i said mines overhanging on one side?

Did you curving V's so it bends? Are you sure you put it centre?
