should I put an ABT front skirt on this car
« on: 07 April 2008, 15:48 »
Hi All

I have as below, ABT quads with rear valance and what looks to me like ABT sideskirts....perfectly happy with the car as is, but sometimes I look at her and think that the front needs a wee tweak to complete the picture...what do we reckon? I dont want to go too low, whats the general opinion?

I think you just need to colour code the one you have then it will look great :cool:

did you buy this car from an ad on Pistonheads?

I had a look, and waited, but could not refind the ad, it is a nice looking car. :smiley:

I think that possibly a simple colour code will give the look of 'extending' the splitter as black will cut it short.     
Nice car though!!  Sometimes i look at the Red GTI's and regret going 'safe' with black.  (duck's and hides from all Black GTI owners)  :grin:

Looks like this:

A warning though, you will scrape every bump you come across, even at standard ride height. Mine is actually a bit better over speed bumps now its on coilovers as there nit so much rebound.

....Have you considered the OSIR front splitter? Not quite as deep as the Abt and so a bit more practical imo.
