Hi guys and girls

I was just wondering what front splitters fitted (or could fit with some modifcation) on the 300 series?

Cheers!

Ross

Mk1 Golf Gti. Keep meaning to get one. I thought it would look sweet on a 300 and then I was informed it had already been done.
NVM. could've saved me a photoshop lol.

I never checked your link Ben, didn't know you said the wrong mk lol.

The mk1 Golf job suits what I want perfectly. Just fits along the front with no wrap around. There's plenty to cut and shut though if the OP see's something they fancy. Some Gen 5 Accords have a pretty sweet, deep splitter that comes up in the middle.

Cheers Ben ^ I dunno like, no shadows etc. I don't try too hard on there lol. Just a drop and debadged the grille as thats's an old pic. Splitter looks at home though IMO. Shame the ML's I shopped on look more like 15x9 Watannabe thingies and not my 13x7's. lol

lol, i know, thats the money i have spent on the wheels for mine (before home made refurb)

but, i love carbon fibre, perhaps to much. lol

although in the world of carbon fibre car parts, that isnt that bad.
