Default 500 copy front splitter,hard plastic guy from Newcastle/north east makes them?

As above,does anyone know the guy from the North East,Newcastle way who makes the 500 front splitters in Hard plastic rather than fibreglass,I'm sure he used to sell on here at one time,i think his name maybe Ian?

Anyway I am trying to track him down as I need a splitter made.Can anyone help with his contact details or username on here perhaps.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I got mine 2.5 years ago i think it was £80 but i can't confirm, ask Luke he bought one and had it posted, or better still ring Ian

Mine is a one piece as i picked mine up from Ian but if you need them posting they are 2 piece.

Just thought i'd add to the thread they aren't hard plastic, i looked at mine today and it's obviously the original shape is fibreglass but the whole splitter is gel coated and very solid they are the best i've seen
