Default New front splitter on the Saff. **A new Piccy page 2**

I haven't had a front spiltter on my Saff for years and years and for quite some time i have been toying with the idea of getting one.

There are quite a few aftermarket ones about but none have been to my liking really...

Then i spotted one i liked, emailed the guy and struck a deal.

I've been very busy with work and a 3wk Australia holiday so managed to put it on this morning..













And it all back on the car

I always thought they look great from the front, but once you look side on at the car, it makes the rear look like something is missing!

I'm not a fan of the Rouse as imo it's too big.
