I've seen a number of cars with added splitters/spoliers to the bottom of the front spoiler can someone point me in the right direction for something like this..

I think that OSIR do a carbon fibre splitter? I can't be sure though.
Not low enough mk5
Not on the road enough mk3

Someone mention carbon fibre? :tongue:

OSIR do a luscious CF front lip - pricey though.

Just my tuppence worth......I think the ed30 looks classy, the osir looks a little too un-oem for my tastes....also remember the height....last thing you need is to split the splitter  :laugh:

Yes, I've 'clumped' it a few times but you only really notice in pics or if you're looking for it. When you start looking very closely at all the body panel joins you'll notice similar differences in the gaps. It doesn't bother me.
