There are a few of us with the K-Tec one and I think it looks quite good...well for what it is, a bit of material wrapped around the bottom front of the car.

tell me about it- I put up with a splitterless front end for 2 months whilst waiting for my carbon one to arrive. Must say that I feel carbon is cetainly cooler but not worthwhile unless you require a replacement for a broken oem part...

Whatever you do, don't rush it and ensure that you have someone else along to assist with the job..
..Is the T feeling neglected now that the 5 has arrived? :(

Sure i'll manage with my magic fingers :lol:

They are both feeling a little neglected, the T is parked around a friends as someone had a word and advised me that three cars don't go into one parking space and the 5 is a total garage queen and won't go out in the rain which leaves me with betsy the van :?

My splitter just did what its name said it would do (so can't really complain..) and split in two.

Been to K-Tec today (only ten mins from work) and booked mine in to have their matt CF one fitted. £95 for the splitter, plus £25 to remove old and fit new (I'm lazy and clumsy) + VAT.

May post pic in due course. I haven't even tried Renault's price having read a few comments on here; I assume this price is pretty fair? The labour charge seems reasonable to get a professional job done.

OK, here's the results. General view:

Close up. This is the matt version and is fairly shiny. I think the glossy one would earn me a place in the hall of shame.

Cheeky buggers put a K-Tec sticker on the back and it ain't going anywhere.

£138.00 inc. VAT. As mentioned in a spotted thread, I was parked next to another Trophy for the first time ever while there, and met a friendly chap with a silver R26 (didn't like the colour) who'd had quite a few problems with it.

The shiney one is not as bling as you might think :wink:

Was the R26 doing the usual impression of a goldfish bowl?

Hmmm, I have the shiney version - I didn't know there was a matt version available.. As far as I am aware, all those with CF splitters have the shiney version so far?!

Looks good though JTB - I would have considered it, had I realised it was available.

JTB no offence taken, may well have gone for the Matt version myself.
Have to be careful here as I got a slap on the wrist over on RS, some seem to have problems draining water.
