i actually prefer it afterwards.

tell me though, can still see the weave of the c.b through the paint?

otherwise, i wondered the point in having a c.b. splitter at all?

Actually prefer it now than before mate, look less "stuck on" as it did a little before.

Almost wish you'd painted it all now and just left that tiny "Type R" emblem as that is a really nice touch and exactly what i had in mind with the "Prodrive" idea.

Love it

Hmmmm not sure to be honest..

As much as I love this car , and I understand your situation after damaging it, I think I preferred it before.

Having said which, it is a damn good , if not perfect solution next to buying another one..

Looks good, Si. I was after one of those splitters, but as you say, none left.

I've come up with my own design. Would also like it in carbon if I get it made.
