Painted Cupra splitter now fitted

For those interested. It fits really well if you screw the centre on first, then bring the edges of the splitter out slightly. Really pleased with the results.

Very tastefully done
Along with the rest of the car, the 20's etc
What width tyres are you running 245's?

I often think an E36 M3 style splitter would work on the RS4 B7 as the shape of the lip is similar to an E36 328 M Tech. As I had both cars and had the splitter off an M3 fitted to my 328 before I bought an M3. I should really get a moulding done.

Splitter looks good mate. Loving that Defender in the background though. Is it yours? If so, more pics please.

Good man, tell us a little about it too, looks a beast. A little like the Twisted modified Land Rovers.

I almost brought one of these off awesome grind the other day but hadn't actually seen on fitted, now that I have I'm going to get one this weekend thanks to you! Haha. How low have you lowered yours or does it just look lowered due to the 20's?

Cheers

Not sure how much it is actually lowered by, but it is on the basic bilstein coilovers. I just set it up so the curve of the wheels follow the arch
