    Homemade front splitter....

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Is it a good idea? My friend just put a home made one on his Mazda 6 and it looks decent. Is it advisable to do it on my A4?

    uhhh... if thats what you want and you can make it look good why not?

    Adviseable? its purely for aesthetics, so go for it.

    Yeah I know that there is 0 performance gain from this, I just want to do something to the car so it looks a little different. If I do I'll definitely post pictures.

    Re: Homemade front splitter....

    here is my 2 cents, it looks good, cheap and easy to do, but I wouldnt do it for my car. If you search, you will see a few people running this. If you want a cheap alternative, cupra lip might be for you.

    How would one come across said Cupra lip? It definitely looks better than the Home Depot one.

    I mean I did this and fabricated them myself. I could probably do it again for a certain price.

    We call it the HD Front Lip.

    Home Depot, that is. I've done one on a Saab, cheap and fun.

    Yours was the one that made me do the project It's too bad you are parting out my friend you had an awesome ride. And it's also too bad I dont have a manual or else I would steal your setup

    Wow. That looks really good. Where did you procure that splitter from?
