Sh
itter!
I grazed my splitter for the umpteenth time today in Uttoxeter
my car is low enough for me not to want any sort of colour-coded tomfoolery going on, it would just get bashed and scraped within weeks
I think I will stick to my original plan of having a new splitter every twelve months or so... much cheaper!
Still have the original splitter fitted at the moment but it is beginning to show signs of abuse

That's one good thing
I was going to get the bumper resprayed, but now thanks to the damage it's about twice the amount of what it would have been.
