Front splitter going AWOL
Fitted this back in March having sprayed it up:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260854020266&ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:GB:1123
Fitment was perfect by the way
Driving home on a country road earlier I swiftly overtook a few cars and it seems it came off, took the scenic route under the car and disappeared behind me in several pieces
Had a look when I got home and found the factory holes on underside of the bumper to still be intact so the fibreglass must have snapped I used all the bolts and penny washers provided..
Has this happened to anyone else - and would you say I'm entitled to a free replacement? Surely it should be able to withstand a bit of downforce? As far as I can tell the road was flat and the car isn't that low so it shouldn't have hit anything.
I've sent them a message on Ebay and if they send a replacement then I'll be sandwiching the splitter with a thin strip of aluminium each side next time! Still going to have to fork out another £20 for paint
