Thats much better well done Clapping

You can see a few marks from where the splitter has been hit etc but it could take forever to sort that and its only at the very bottom so they wont be seen.

It's up to you whether or not you want to finish it, clear coat looks a little thin from what I can see though.

At the end of the day it's at the bottom of the bumper and is going to get scuffed occasionally, so the quality of the finish is entirely up to you Yes

Fitted -



Finish is OK, a little light with the paint on the lip that actually connects with the bumper.

But all in, not a bad effort as you can only see so much down there anyway.

Car looks much much better with a splitter thats for sure. Car just looked unfinished without one....

Will prob be getting the spoiler done at some point - something you can assist with cwspellowe? Whistle

Looks good but personally a black splitter looks better and is much less hassle. I give it a fortnight before all the scraping on speed bumps, cerbs and car park ramps start flaking the paint off.

IIRC that isn't a ph3 splitter as they were a one piece unit?

Im pretty sure all splitters were in two pieces?

My v-plate meridian came with one fitted and that was in two parts too.

And have to disagree with black vs colour coded splitter.

Black splitters just blend in and arent really noticeable but the manstone coded splitter really stands out and rounds off the front end smoothly.


I'll just have to be careful when it comes to driving up ramps and kerbs but the paint keyed to the plastic quite well so im not expecting it to flake off easily

Laugh I'd love to help mate but it wouldn't be economical. Unfortunately what with being heterosexual I do not have any manstone paint so would have to buy it in especially Wink

It accentuates the colour of my natural aura. And my eyes. Clashes with my hair extensions though so they MUST go.

Laugh everyone knows it takes major cojones to paint your own car bright yellow
