I got the corners done at the stealers. not the best place i know but i wasn't keen on doing them myself. They are about £56+vat each, and dont take that long to fit.

The spoiler i have isn't the sti8 replica on their website but the "high level spoiler" fitted and painted for £300. Quality is good. Wouldn't hesitate geting anything else done there.

so did you fit the corner splitter yourself? did you have to cut the bumper/cut any of the tabs off?

Sorry no, the dealer fitted them.

Originally they fitted them with the tabs or whatever they are on, but it meant that they didn't sit flush and looked completely pants, they had an unsightly bulge. I left it to see if they settled down but they didn't so they cut those bits off and bonded them on, which is the best way unless you are thinking of taking them off again . I think it may have involved cutting originally.

Whether or not it represents good value for money is another question. I was feeling flush at the time and they fitted an alu gear frame as well for the hours labour.

Overall i think the front end is improved a lot.
