Default htauto front splitter (blobeye) fitting advice

Hey guys, just got my front splitter through the posts (thanks ht!), looks the t*ts and can't wait to fit it.

I'm going to have to wait till daylight but thought I would post this thread to ask if there are any tips in fitting it on, I notice there are 4 nuts/bolts supplied, are there holes in the original bumper or am I going to have to get the drill out?

get under the car Mr Singh and hold the splitter up to the underneath of the bumper and all will make sense bud, no need for drill, it will take ya 10mins max

Excellent, do I do anything with the four smaller holes towards the centre of the splitter?

use the existing nuts/bolts that are already under your bumper, trust me do what i said above tomoz and it will make sense, no need to drill or add more bolts/nuts etc
all you need is supplied or on the car already

I added a few extra bolts on mine as I found it didnt fit perfect and sagged a little in places. Fine though now!

You will find with the ht auto like mine and other members on here u need to add extra nuts and bolts as if only using what is supplied tends to find sides don't sit right and u end up with gaps

Few extra nuts and bolts fill as many holes as you can to get a tight fit, and don't forget your washers singh

Fitted, it looks amazing I thought that would be the last thing i'd do but now I can't help but think it should be a bit lower!! I've got the PPP on my car so I don't really want to mess around with it, anyone know if the height is adjustable?
