FL splitter development

[Marshall]

Here's some pics of it fitted wish I'd just used self tapers as it was very awkward to get to te nuts behind the bumper.
Had the fog lamps out and everything.

Oh hot damn that looks good!

This may be silly but looking at the bottom of the fr bumper and standard bumper for FL cars look very similar. I wonder if this would fit a standard bumper?

Listen. That right there, is absolutely beautiful. Keep dropping hints for Christmas so wish me luck. Lol

Looks gorgeous.

If it's not too much trouble, how much does it reduce the ground clearance by? I would hate to fit one, and then rip it off everytime I parked in my usual parking spot, due to having to stick the front of the car over the kurb. Although it looks good enough to find another parking spot if it is a problem.

looks the muts nuts I think nut n bolt far better send secure than self tappers , did it take long to fit ?

It can be fitted without taking fogs out

Crap picture...

I'll get some daylight pics tomorrow because this hardly shows anything, but in person it looks great, much better than in pictures. Although the front is worryingly low with sportlines fitted with some of the whopping speed bumps near me.

Thats the whole idea... If you do catch it, I would rather it come off on its own rather than take my bumper with it. Plus it is a absolute doddle to fit with self tappers.

It's an expensive gamble

How low is your car on sportlines????

Like any other car on sportlines? Fairly low. It all depends on the size of speed bumbs in your area I suppose, near me they are like mountains and already scrape on the side skirts slightly...

Ok..... I was only asking because of variation in drop. I could've used someone's as a comparison for mine.
I've got 25mm all round but speed bumps in Portsmouth are few unless you go into a multistory car park. Will still take a chance,why not

I'd need to check how much ground clearance is reduced but I'd say about 30mm

Andrew maybe yours was drilled on a different place as the ones at the front corner you'd either need the fog lamps out or the wheel arch liners to gain access.
It took me 1.5 hours to fit on the floor with it jacked up.
Spent a bit if time to make it sit perfectly though.

Haha yes, it would be! I guess its not worth it. Unless kev would ship one to me but allow me to send it back if it didn't fit my bumper.

Wheel arch liners, Holes in yours where drilled into the mold using mine after we fitted it

Just use self tappers, it took all of about 3 minutes with some masking tape to hold it in place so I could adjust it easily if needed. Although I probs screwed through fogs if they are as close as you say kev haha. Everything works fine though and they were only 10mm long so it's probably okay

 

[Marshall]

No chance of screwing into anything I just needed the gigs out to get the nuts on.
The fogs are only 1 screw on the grill and half turn the lamp so just a couple of minutes.
Just fiddly to get the nuts on behind the washer bottle etc

 

[Benjic2]

That's good to know. I should probably should have done it the proper way but I'm too impatient for that and just wanted too see how it looked lol. Detail on Friday and some better clear pictures will be taken
