Default Splitter....

Hi,

Im putting a JUN splitter on MY98, previously i put the same splitter on MY97 and the bumper got scratched whilst putting it on due to the rough end behind the splitter (fibre glass).

So is there anyway of preventing this please?

Cheers

Only method, tbh, use aluminium oxide paper wrapped round a wooden block.
Beware of the f/glass strands too, they WILL get into your skin unless you take avoiding action
