pics of #1190s splitter mount

[svtkev]

had some requests for pics of how my splitter is mounted, heres a few

heres what we added to the splitter around the foglights

heres the new bumper support bracket we made without the splitter installed

heres with the splitter installed

and heres from under the splitter

what we did on the side was glassed in some metal to pull the sides in tight to the bumper and then we made a lip that sits on the body line of the bumper and that lip makes it look like its molded to the side of the bumper, we also added like an inch on both sides of the splitter so it is the full length of the bumper , lastly we added some pieces of aluminum to the inside and underside of the splitter to support it where the pin holds it on,put some clear vinyl on the side of the bumper so it doesnt scrape going on and off , lined inside of the entire splitter with felt,
so far so good , ive scraped it pretty hard a couple of times and its held up good

how about a shot from the front around the foglights?

really good work but all that work....why not just mold it instead?

I have a molded for the summer months and a stocker for the winter.

i have a large hump at the end of my driveway and i was positive i wouldnt be able to make it in or out of the driveway with the splitter on so it was important that it was removable , and i just couldnt throw it on as horrible as they fit the bumper


heres some pix of the foglight area from my other thread

That's awesome work, and great ingenuity! Did you weld that thin-ass aluminum yourself? That's a great bead!

looks much better than how Mirko does it...good job!

Now thats what I call a CLEAN install.

looks really sweet!

Ever since I bolted on my skidplate it weighs the thing down and creates a gap by the foglight area.

Anyone have any ideas on how to pull the thing back tight? I pushed it on the bumper hard when I first bolted the mirko on my car but it still hangs :shrug: Think I'm screwed
