Does anyone know where I can get a new front splitter (the stock silver one that sits just below the bumper)
Some bottomfeeder has reversed into me with a toe bar by the looks of it and it's cracked
Or it could have happened at Audi as I was just in for a service

Audi or ebay I guess.
I have a titanium one but not sure if its for sale or not (wrong colour for you anyway).

Front splitter search seems to throw up loads of additional aftermarket splitters, I can't find the silver oem bit in isolation. Admittedly I'm on my phone searching on ferry wifi so not trying so hard but hoped someone had bought one already.

4G0807717 AP6 - Aluminium Matt, or M17 for Tit grey £219.65

So this is a fake? https://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/Spoiler-Vorne- ... Sw8b1aCujh

Thanks guys, how much did they charge you feeltheburn?

I recall that all in it was less than £175 a couple of years ago- I think that they fitted it for free [I had been a long time Stirling customer, but bought the RS in Glasgow and I think they wanted my business back for servicing etc ]. I am overseas at the moment so don't have access to the receipt to confirm. As I said it took no more than 30 minutes but then it would if it was a freebie I guess.

The one in your link looks a little bit strange, the paint finish seems a bit patchy and with some distortion on the LHS.

I agree that photo looks odd.

And it is pretty easy to change yourself.

Contacted the seller and they state it's an original undamaged part so have taken a punt and ordered it. Audi quoted 275 for the part and bumper off labour. Mentioned it was only a half hour job and gave them the picture in feeltheburns thread. Disinterested as per Glasgow Audi.

The picture of my car was at a ferry terminal after a 1000 mile drive

Then, kerplunk. Stone hits the window and a 5 inch crack appears. Called Audi again. £1400 for an oem fitted screen.
Spoke to insurance. 95quid excess of using autoglass and 195 of using Audi. I'll be using Audi.

The Audi gods know I went to see a gulia qv and are punishing me.

Whilst we are on the subject of this splitter, anyone able to recommend a suitable place to get a decent carbon version? Prefer the skinned variety over a wrap if possible.

The Audi manual describes how to change the splitter and it is definitely done without removing the bumper. I have done it a couple of times so can verify this.

Carbon Desingz or Neidfaktor for a skinned one. Or buy a genuine one from here or ebay. The genuine ones are a little deeper than the non carbon ones but doubt anyone would notice it on the car.

Nice one Mike. Cheers!

Just be careful of the the carbon designz prices. They seem much cheaper than neidfaktor but they don't include tax in their prices so you need to add 19% to any price you see.
