How to distinguish a genuine P1 splitter
 
Is there any markings on the inside of a P1 splitter, i want to buy this splitter of a guy but not sure if it is actually genuine.. I am sure ProDrive would of stamped it somewhere???

Copies are fibreglass.

I thought that, but HT autos sell a plastic version...

I wasn't sure if anyone else did a plastic version, the plastic ones are much better because they don't chip as much.

If fibreglass - it's a copy, if it doesn't have a removable tow hook cover - it's a copy.

here's the link to the original http://www.prodrive.com/products_lev...ml?id=100&p=12

As mentioned above it has a removable tow cover however some copies do have a removable cover also! it protrudes under the car a fair bit and is functional. not just cosmetic..
