Front Air Splitter/ Re-styling The Front End.

[Burger Boy]

Hello everyone
I want to change the look of the front and was wondering which air splitter is the best at a cost not exceeding £200? Or is it better to buy a new body kit styled front bumper with splitter all in one? If so, again which one and how much/ where from?

Many Thanks

Cheers
Scott.

Pumaspeed sell a FRP replica splitter from memory for a hundred and something.

Depends what look you're going for.

Will it fit on the standard bumper? or just the wider FRP bumper?

It does fit the standard bumper, you just get about an inch either side but i like that.
Here's mine:

and this is where i got it from:

Thanks for the Pic's Vitch-w & Sparx, loving the cars.

Excellent graphic's Sparx, looking at Ford Racing graphic's for mine.

Sprax - So that is the standard FRP splitter that fits straight onto the standard Puma without any meshing about? must admit it looks good with the over hang on both sides.

Thanks Sparx - just look at the Puma Speed Link and it explains that it does fit ok on a standard puma bumper with M6 bolts.

Spot on, many thanks

Scott.

It's a bit more involved than just bolting on, you need small angle brackets to fit it and also trim the original rubber skirt down. It does look good when its done.

 

[Burger Boy]

Do you get the angle brackets with the splitter, or do you need to form the brackets yourself?

I bought mine from B&Q!

 

[Burger Boy]

How big where the brackets? (i.e 1" square angle bracket) And how many do I need?

Will nip to B&Q in my lunch break and get some ready for fitting.

Cheers

The more the better because you have to remember it has to withstand speeds of over 100mph and yes, the lad i fitted one for boughts his brackets from B&Q

Incase you needed a little more help with this, here is the step by step How-To for fitting an FRP Splitter onto a standard bumper. A friend over on Puma People fitted this for me and this is the guide he's made
