#1: Fitted cupra splitter Author: PUG1981, Location: Leek, StaffordshirePosted: Mon Apr 19, 2010 9:11 am ---- All,
After seeing on here and other forums the different types of splitters people fitted I choose the Seat Leon Cupra R. Got it brand new from Seat for £24.18
and 15 mins later this is what it looks like, I know its nothing new but I do like them as it's looks original
After i've paid to get cambelt, service, MOT done I shall be getting GTI spoiler, morettes, zunsports grills in stainless (all 3). Then I shall start on the tuning

#8: Re: Fitted cupra splitter Author: DJ-, Location: UKPosted: Mon Apr 19, 2010 2:53 pm ---- Great little mod!

Well from start to finish it was about 20 mins, but that was due to having access to a ramp at a garage so made life easier. If you were doing it off axle stands then proberly say add another 15 mins on.
The only cutting required is on the end of the bumber as it touchs the wheels but width way its a perfect fit.

Cheers I do prefer this compared to other splitters and another main reason to have it was needed something make it look lower but can still get over speed bumps as there's loads where I live lol
It does get loads of care and attention, just hope get other jobs done in time for FCS. If not there si always next year lol and I do agree moonstone is my fav colour in the peugeot range.

What I did when I got the splitter cut all the connectors off so that the top of the splitter is flat. Then use mole grips to hold it in place. Once your happy its centre use self tapping screws starting from the centre to the edges then use a hacksaw to cut level with the bumper. job done
#20: Re: Fitted cupra splitter Author: Resolutionary, Location: South West LondonPosted: Tue Apr 20, 2010 3:29 pm ---- I liked this so much I ordered mine today! One quick question, what sort of self tappers do I need (size, material, etc)? Sweet mod and makes a lot of a difference to the front of the car.

The screws I used were one's my dad had in his van. but need be to be around half an inch in length so they fit through the splitter and bumper and I used about 10 -12 and its solid

It is a very simple mod, cheap and looks factory can see there is going to be loads of them at FCS this year, might have our own section lol
After seeing on here and other forums the different types of splitters people fitted I choose the Seat Leon Cupra R. Got it brand new from Seat for £24.18
and 15 mins later this is what it looks like, I know its nothing new but I do like them as it's looks original
Looks well mate, do you have a part number for splitter or did u just ask for a cupra r splitter? sounds cheap to me also as people are selling on ebay for more than that?
#25: Re: Fitted cupra splitter Author: DJ-, Location: UKPosted: Fri Apr 30, 2010 8:21 am ---- what size self tapper screws did ya use?!
haha I will soon, they dont even have any in stock yet

The part number is 1ML805903 and it was 24.82 including VAT brand new from seat. They do range in price depending on your local seat dealer but def cheaper than off ebay mate and if you have seat local dont even need pay postage
Haha they were out of my dad's van so were a freebie lol they were roughly just shorter than half an inch. They only need to be long enough to go through the splitter and the bumper which is roughly same thickness as the splitter so even mine could of been shorter if I wanted.
Looks sweet bud. i know of some morettes for sale too
haha i would love some morettes mate, but need get other jobs done first, if I do have spare cash and you still have them i'll be in contact
#34: Re: Fitted cupra splitter Author: kingdom200, Location: Leamington SpaPosted: Fri May 21, 2010 10:58 am ---- ordered mine today really with there was a how to on this lol im worrying bout fitting it now haha

It's simple to fit mate you cant really go wrong just need take you time.
When i got the splitter I cut off all the clips so that the top of the splitter was flat, then driled pilot holes through all the tabs (should be about 10 i think)
Then got the front of the car jacked uo, then use mole grips to holed the splitter in place or a mate.
Then using sel tapper screws started from the centre working your way out positioning it to where you want it to sit, then when your near the edge get a hacksaw to cut it level with the bumper and then put the final screws in the end and jobs done. took me about 20 mins but recommend just taking your time to get ti perfect.

I had one my car, probably one of the easyest things to do IMO, I fitted mine with car still on ground and car was lowered, took about 10mins,
