Default Chargespeed Carbon front splitter fitted today

Big thanks to Tim @ Scoobyparts for sorting out such a good deal on the splitter
Fitted perfectly, no problems even for a dimwit like myself
Bit of a worldwide shortage of carbon fibre due to Airbus using most of it but it was worth the wait i think

Where did you get your pink grill badge from ? Is it a vinyl one or solid like the original. I have just bought a vinyl one off Ebay, but because it sticks to a convex surface rather than flat, it has wrinkled around the edges.

cheers

Seen your car before Jon and it looks the Nuts M8.

I did read the masterclass on your headlight exploits too, de tangoing is summin i've been thinkin about for some time, but i'm a bit concerned about taking them out and cracking them open..........Anyone in the Essex area wants to lend a hand theres plenty of Stella in the fridge

So when it smashes itself to pieces on something hard it enhances performance by reducing weight?

Cryptic! What do you mean by that exactly?
I have no mounting points for a splitter and am already at my ideal weight, taking any off will only make me go slower.
