The first splitter did the same just bought another one thinking it was the last splitter on the piss and this one has gone the same. WHY??

 

maybe the bumper is pissed where the splitter join have u check the holes

 

did u buy it from fords maybe they had other car parts on the splitter when it was in the rack so it would of been twisted already when u brought it

 

Was contemplating the very same question, as the stone deflector on mine when i brought it has been slightly distorted was thinking of replacing but dont want the same to happen

Nice plate by the way, may i ask where u got em made? or size,font etc?

 

try adjusting your bumper m8 looks a little low on nearside also you could make up some brkts 2 strengthen the spoiler this helps 2

 

The plates i got off cossymad mate i think the front is 17" long and 2.5" wide dont know the font as i just asked him that i wanted the same as the cossy on the front of dec 2004 fast ford.

Glen yeah the front bumper is a bit loose that side but it cant be making the splitter do that????? I will have to make up something.

 

Cheers ian rst, thought they would be from him top man by all accounts, will ave to invest in some soon....

N let us know how u get on with the stone deflector as will look into sorting mine....

 

ok monte will do.

What if i try putting something under the splitter to prop it up a bit and leave it for a few days will it stay like it when i take the support away??

 

have u tried putting the lower splitter on it may help

 

I dont have a lower splitter. I have put something under it for now and i have just checked it and it looks a little better maybe i might heat it up and try again.

 

When you pull onto the drive, do you always pull on from one direction and always drive in or reverse in etc, cos it looks like its caught the ground a few times and pushing it against the floor in one place regularly would £cuk it... this is exactly why I didnt buy a new one for mine, as the car scrapes everytime I drive in or out the drive

 

No it doesnt touch the floor mate.

 

mine has done exactly the same... although not quite as severe as yours!

 

mines done the same...its only started to distort over the last few months, i brought a new spolier and a splitter from fords a while ago..will fit it once the bumper is repainted.Hope this one lasts for a few years.

 

i bought a brand new upper from ford and it has deformed in exactly the same place as the old one had even though all the holes are bolted and i have put large mudflap type washer on to spread the pinching load points where they tighten up, the other idea i had was to fill the back of it with expanding filler foam, becasue if i lie down and push the deformed parts out from the back they look fine, if the fillerfoam was along the back would that help keep it pushed out...

 

Thats how it was on my car before i sent it you! Maybe your bumper??

 

Yeah i know its not the splitter must be my bumper. Tried wedging something under it for a few days it made a difference then but has gone back to how it was i might try that expanding foam??

 

I would take the bumper off, could be a bent bracket behind

 

huuuuuuuuumm. that foam idea is good as it will allow it to flex a bit but keep it in shape . i put a strengthening plate (between the splitter and deflector ) all the way along it and worked well, untill i hit a speed bump and the plate ripped through the stone defecltor . not bothered replacing it as it sits too low on knoi's and standard wheels and catches on everything.......
