eBay splitters?
« Reply #16 on: October 31, 2013, 07:01:18 pm »
I've just bought one of these mate:

I'll let you know once arrive how fits etc.

Si

I just bought one of these too. Also just read the Vortex forum review. It does look like the screw tabs are bent the wrong way. :sad1:

Will update this thread once I take delivery, then after painting and fitting. :-S

Sounds good. Thought worth a punt as not made of fibre glass, plus comes with side fittings. Will trial fit once arrives then take to body shop for paint.

What do people think, all tornado red, or red and black centre?

I'd say paint it all TR too, it emphasises how deep the splitter is I think :laugh:

i think all painted red personally. you're getting the votex one and you want to be able to see it!

Anyone got one of these eBay splitters? The ED30/Votex style ones?
Just wondering how they fit, and if anyone has any pictures?

i got an ED 30 one from ebay from the 1000tuning seller and its a really good fit!

i put it up against the OEM lip.





I'm putting it on a spare front bumper so i will post pics of the fitment later.

also test fitting the front and rear ed 30 bits on my car.
