Default Something a split different

Hey all,

I've been after a front splitter for a while but I wanted something a bit different. Been looking around for ages and couldn't find anything bar the normal P1 or STI6. Then I had an epiphany. Sourced this and just mounted it to see what it looks like.







It is only stuck on with masking tape at the moment so not mounted tight, but what do you think?

Cheers.

P.s. Ignore the dirtyness please I know already

What is it ? presumably it is mean't for a scoob ?

Looks wise is doesn't look too bad, but what it would provide in aerodynamics I am not sure, they take quite a battering would it not get ripped off by air streams ?

always good to see someone thinking outside the norm but I'm not sure it works...maybe once it securely fixed it will look better?

Looks like a good idea mate but not sure that it fits too well looking at the pics? Well done for doing something a bit different though, makes a nice change to see something other than a P1 or v6 on the front

nice effort, though there is a reason why so many people have the P1, V6 or Jun splitters...they are tried and tested and just.....work

Points for being different and having a go. Points deducted for it not working
