i'm gonna go carbon fibre on mine because there almost the same price as the standard items if you can find standard ones that is!!
i notice in the pic paul that you have what looks like a new set of fixing bolts for the splitters, where did you get them mate? can you still get them from ford??

If you like Carbon fibre deffo go for them as its a lot cheaper then sorcing originals Best Carbons out there are the one Mike Rainbird sells Franco has a set and it looks the nuts!
The fixing bolts comes selotaped to the spoilers, as far as I'm aware these aren't listed on microcat so I don't think you can buy them

ok nice one paul.
i'm going to get mine from mike so i'm glad they look good!
as for the bolts, as long as there normal m8 or m10 or similar, i'll be able to get some through work. being an engineer does have its advantages!!

Not sure - the off side has a little missing at the top, which is why i want to repalce them really!
If i could find original stuff, i think i'd stick with that, but i can't be waiting around for 9 months like paul to get hold of them - i'm an impatient bugger!
