laguna splitter pics needed

[DaiRees]

I trimmed the clips off the back of the laguna splitter, then used the channel that the 406 rubber strip goes into to guide & support back edge of the laguna splitter. So mine can be returned to standard easily enough, the only evidence would be the holes in the underside of the bumper from the self-tappers, but most people would only ever see those if I was running them over, in that situation I don't think they'd be too bothered...

That said, strangely irrelevant thoughts do pass through the minds of those in life-threatening situations...

Stepping out into the road, I turn to see a car charging towards me, no way it's gonna stop in time, and time seems to slow to a crawl as the adrenaline surges through my veins - pity I'm glued to the spot instead of diving out of the way...

"Argh, I'm being run over by a car, I'm gonna di- wait a minute, is that a Skoda I'm being hit by? Damn, that's a piss-poor and embarrassing car to be killed by. Now a Ferrari, that's a car to be kill-"<squish>

Funnily enough, my wife plays this game called "Yellow Car" when she's on the daytrip bus with the "clients" - basically you call out "Yellow Car" when you see one. It's got that bad that it has turned into a kind of nervous twitch as she now does it even when she is on her own! If we go anywhere together she'll even interrupt a conversation to say it.

"& then my father said that he was YELLOW CAR going to..." - quite weird.

A few weeks ago one of them pushed her into the road & she was lucky to not get hit, but she did say when she came home that her last words would have been "Yellow Car" as guess what nearly ran her over...

It's a standard item on the Coupe; no idea if it'll fit the saloon/estate though. If you want to try, you could contact ade1122 on the Coupe Club forums and see how much he'll sell you one for.

[Gary406]

does the coupes front bumper look the same shape as the saloons ?

around the sides to the wheels .. and the curve bits . do they curve similar or are they totally different

looking at your picture they look very similar...

[Gary406]

does your coupe also have a side trim ? like a splitter on the sills ?

[highlander]

Not sure about the shape of the front. I will take a better look tomorrow when it's not so dark.

It does indeed have the side skirts; again, a standard item on the Coupe:

[Gary406]

hmmm. i have an idea ..

wonder if the side skirts are long enough to go on the saloon.
wonder how they are fixed to the car.

[highlander]

The gap between front and rear wheel arches should be pretty much the same. I'd imagine they fit on with plastic rivets or poppers, maybe some screws. Not 100% sure though. Again, try asking ade1122 on the Coupe Club forums for a quote for a full set of splitter and side skirts from a Coupe, and ask him how they are affixed to the car.

[Gary406]

ye emailed him last night. he said £20 for a pair of splitters, not sure if hes refering to the 2 side skirts there ..

i will phone him once i return hom from taking the kids to school ..

thanks mate for your replys
