Default Splitter for S2?

Which splitter would be the best for an S2 on a 90's spec front bumper? I have been looking at Laguna and Seat Ibiza ones. Which are the easiest to fit and look best. Pics welcome.

Can't go wrong with Laguna, probably easiest fit. Some people go with VR6 one...

But I'd just get a rep RS500 one and chop it on

imho the Laguna splitter blends in quite well without being OTT. The Seat item is a bit too deep and runs the risk of catching on speed humps and other urban hazzards.

Is the Laguna splitter a straight fit or does it require modifying at all?

I had it fitted onto my 90 spec front bumper and it wasn't a straight fit as there is no fixing behind the front bumper.

90 spec bumper's are lovely on their own, with maybe a subtle cutout for a front mount.....wouldn't wanna ruin one with an aftermarket splitter personally, but the more subtle the better if you are gonna do it imo!
