Very nice, looks a little bit more aggressive which is just what the car needed.

Congrats on getting the best colour!

What brand is the splitter and how much of a faff (or not) to fit it?

Hi , its a Maxton one and is a bit of a pain to fit if you do it like I did as I didn't want any hole's in my bumper and used 4 original fixing points and 3m tape in various locations which needed a car lift and 2 people but its more than doable but you have to be precise as you remove the tape from the 3M first , the kit comes with nut,bolt and washer kit which ideally needs the bumper removed, the easiest way to fit would be to use the 4 original fixings at the rear and 1 strip of 3M along the front with a tag left long you can pull off after , hold and fix in place with the original fixing points and push the front into place and gently pull out your extended red tag from the 3M along the front gently pushing it up as you go if that makes sense.....this might do the trick but all you would need to do then is to just screw in 4-5 self tapping screws for belt and braces ,
