Talking Carbon splitters fitted

In between the rain falling yesterday I managed to get the above mentioned fitted. I quite like the look and don't know if I should change the black grilles to carbon ones now! Over to you for your thoughts





Spot where the wife kerb'd it last weekend

Definitely feeling those, great addition! Carbon Grilles should finish off the front end nicely! ;-)

Thanks for the comments guys. Can see some carbon grilles getting ordered pretty soon so if anyone's interested the OEM black ones then let me know. I don't mind if they go before I get new ones as I have the originals still.

Make sure the grills have the same weave pattern as the splitters

If you get no takers here, stick 'em on eBay...black ones go like hot cakes. Nice car BTW.

£50 posted. I got them at the end of May this year so they've not been on the car long. They're not marked as far as I can see (zoom in on the above pics for a good look). They're OEM from Stratstone Hull's eBay shop and I have the original boxes which I'll send them on in. PM me if you're interested. Cheers

Looks excellent

BTW, I'm not sure why, but the picture quality is absolutely fantastic. I had to double check the first pic to make sure you hadn't photoshopped it, it's so crisp it's almost unreal. Good job!

Thanks. The picture quality is due to the camera, it's an EOS 5D MkII that belongs to my dad but I seem to have acquired it , I don't know how to use it but I'm learning. The pics have been sharpened and the colour slightly adjusted, that's all. So they'd fit better on here they're 25% of the original size as well!!
