Leon Splitters

or masking tape then jack the car up and drill it on the car easy

Yeah i used mini g-clamps to hold the splitter where i wanted it, then drilled through the splitter and bumper in one go.

Yeah thats what we did too, it was too fiddly with masking tape and kept falling off

The previous owner has cut in to the bumper so the splitter fits properly but not anymore. The problem ive got is a low car and an island full of speed humps and steep hills.

Right my mate kindly picked my splitter up for me this morning

Am slightly confused though as offered it up to the car and doesnt look like its gonna fit that well

What happens with the big 'sticky up' bits in the middle of the splitter ? Have i got the wrong one ??

Will take a pic of it after work if no one knows what im talking about

In the centre, you cut them down mate! Easiest way, is lay a piece of wood on the 2nd highest parts, (ie not those 2 tabs) draw a line on the tabs then where the wood comes to.
Then cut to there, that way the 2 tabs are the same height as the rest of the splitter, and should be easier to fit.

You'll also need to trim a little bit off either side, depending on how far forward / back you fit it.

Whats the best way of trimming the sides without making it look pants ?

If you attach it all first and then just saw the longer bits off, it will look ok as it should be in line with the bumper

You can always have a look at mine before you fit it if you want?

aww thanks alex might have to consider that then

So it looks ok just sawed off ? no sanding or nothing ?

Dont suppose you have a pic of the side bits on yours do you??

Just trim with a fine tooth hacksaw, looks fine as is, no need for sanding or smoothing....

 

[CupraTgirl]

Are these any help?
