I know exactly where you're coming from.  ;)
I've got 2 boys, 2 and 3 years old. Hard work, not to mention a huge drain on the car mod and beer fund.  :(

Golfgal, can you get a picture of this 'splitter' and where the damage is? If you're running out of idea's, I have composite repair approval on aircraft. I or one of my colleagues might be able to fix it for you.......if you don't mind a trek up to Heathrow that is...........just an idea :-\

Splitters are a little bit " Fast and furious" for my liking but each to their own I suppose.

It'll come off the first speedhump you hit mind.
