davey_83 Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 (edited) Saw another 350z with this and having done the same previously to one of my own cars, i thought id give it another go. Cut out small 15mm triangles in the splitter along the hidden top and bottom sections, this will allow the plastic to bend later - i cut out way more than i needed too. Cut off the two centre tabs almost flush, as these aren't needed. Remove the OEM front plastic splitter if you have this, x6 10mm and clips hold this in place. Offer up your new item as close to centre as possible and screw in a single self tapper (dead centre) just to hold the splitter in place. Work from centre to the edge of the bumper using screws every 20cm or so until you reach the end, then cut off the excess *should be cicra 12cm each side. You can position the new front splitter as far in or out as you want, so the final look is completely tailored. lower the car stand back and take a picture, you're done and only took 30mins. Pictures: Before After Clearance so far 3 months later is absolute fine with these wheels/tyres and Tein lowering springs. Tools & bits needed: Trolley jack x2 axle stands 10mm socket & ratchet Flat head screwdriver Phillips screwdriver Retractable blade Seat Leon Cupra R front splitter £38+vat from main dealer 15 or so self tappers Difficult level 1/5 The above is what i did myself and would only suggest the above be treated a guide.

GMballistic Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Good work David. Really suits the Zed and you wouldn't know from looking that it wasn't designed for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davey_83 Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share Posted September 23, 2016 Cheers both, ive had to open the splitter up and its still not wide enough - goes to show just how wide the Z33's are - but does work well for that OEM+ look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dj1 Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 (edited) Looks great and somewhat cheep enough to not be worried about scratching and have to replace from time to time, How did it hold up though time for you?

davey_83 Posted May 14, 2019 Author Share Posted May 14, 2019 Absolutely fine, it's an OE part so is made to last. Few scraps on the underside, but of course nothing visual from a walk round. Just adds that touch extra, while not looking aftermarket. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
