Oh okay, i\'m sure it can\'t be that hard. I know there are some kind of fittings underneath mine, no worries. My splitter should be here around 28th i think.

Glad its worked out well for you :)

it fitted perfect it is a tiny bit to small so you need to kinda force it on a bit but it stays on that way

anyways

before:

Driftworks mate. Thats where i found mine and Aundre\'s!

Aundre - Did you use anything other than the cable ties?

just cable ties mate and two self tappers on the end but it isn\'t a must you could do it with just zip ties

You all lie! I can\'t do it, perhaps it won\'t line up properly because I was trying to do it on my own. It seems for me to sit it underneath the bumper it will need self tappers and some of the corner bit trimming, probably get somone with some experience to do it for me!

Why is everything always so fricking difficult when I come to do it? To top it off the drill packed in and wouldn\'t charge! I\'m like cursed when it comes to modifying things :(

B.Martin

Right the reason i\'m having fun with this is i want it sitting totally underneath the bumper like in these pics.



I want mine exactly like Ganders!!!



Where as Aundre\'s is fixed with the oem fixing and sits infront of the bumper also he has an S4 egi bumper and its shaped slightly differently to the TII bumper. See here and you can see how it sits -



So anyone have any idea how the splitter is fitted all around the sides on the TII bumper as it doesn\'t seem to work for me,  a guy i know in Larnaca has offered to take a look at it with me see if we can get it on but i\'m a bit unamused that i can\'t fit it after shipping it half way round the world!

Problem is you have an S4 bumper as well don\'t you? They look much easier to fit than the TII bumper, why is nothing ever easy - Also i imagine you have a whole host of tools at your disposal living with the Prof!
