Love it Dan! Your right it is quite OTT (then again your latest aint subtle ;) ) For a first car though it's awesome, must ave been da boy about town!
The smooth front bumper is class, maybe with black mesh the cut out would look real sweet.

Where is she now?

[Gander]

I rember seeing this on MIG, very impressive for a 1st car!

What splitter is that on the front of the car, I want something like that for the front of mine:cool:

[REMUS]

thats the laguna splitter I think gander?

I don't like that evo 6 vent or the mk4 rs turbo big mouth front styleing but the rest of the motor is good taste, maybe the rear exhaust is a bit ott but it fills up the gaps the rear skirt/bumper have, very well.

[caul pope]

Front splitter deff aint Laguna. Seat Ibiza jobbie me thinks.
The splitter makes it look like the cars got it's mouth open in that 2nd pic.

[REMUS]

I think you will find it is definately a laguna splitter caul :p

Ok Remus I could be totaly wrong here but try and find a Renault Laguna with that front splitter.










Or maybe check these ;)

[REMUS]

could be either, they both look very similar. I don't know anymore, kiran will tell us in a bit anyway!

[kiran_s]

sorry lads been out sortin present car, major hassles!!
the splitter was a..........


































Seat ibiza item ;)

caul pope- whos dan?? and where it is it now? well bits off it exist on the ew one and the rest was crushed for metal, unluckily for them it was 95% fibreglass n filler :p

[caul pope]

Do I get a brownie point?
Or just an emmense feeling of geeky-ness, if my gf found out I could identify a piece of black plastic on a blurry photo I think I'd be dumped.
Sorry I aint Dan. How about paul cope

[kiran_s]

brwonie point? i was considerin it but thought it may make ya look a lil bit more geeky? :p
i guessed you were paul but u said love it dan in your 1st reply?

[caul pope]

Ha ha so I did. Haven't a clue why must be that geeky-ness disorder kicking again or the White Spirit fumes from cleaning bits n pieces earlier.

[REMUS]

Bahhh, next time caul... :)

[Gander]

Kiran any Idea how much the splitter was and is it just a case of wandering in to a seat garage and asking for it over the parts counter?

[kiran_s]

yeh and arm and a leg, 2 years ago it was £40 :eek:
but someone on mig said they could get them for £12 so they must of seen me comin :mad:
