    Anyone seen this splitter / know where I can get one?

    Hi Everyone,
    I was toying with the idea of fitting some PFL canards to my car, but as it is FL, wasn't sure how it would look. A few months back, I done a 5 minute photoshop job to convince myself & this is what came out:

    After much though, I had come to the conclusion that it wasn't going to work & if I could get it to, it still wouldn't look right. I then continued to hunt for a front splitter / spoiler but couldn't find anything that I liked, until this.....

    Problem is, in the thread it says that its a custom job, so I thought about buying an Evo 5 bumper, hacking the bottom off & modifying so that a mould could be made. As this is a major ball ache, I thought I would have one last look & tonight spotted this going through auction.....

    It looks the same! If it is, that means that they must be sourceable as I very much doubt 2 people have made one exactly the same.

    My question is, has anyone else seen these & more importantly know where I can get one from (ideally not carbon fibre as going to paint anyway)? If not, back to Frankenstein Evo bumper project
    Possibly the only VR4 that was driven by the current owner before being registered..... & it's a UK car

    Maybe wrong, but that looks like the splitters from a V6-24 mid facelift with the centre part grafted on - posibly a lip from another car cut up to fit centre part.

    Don't think they protrude enough but not very clear in the picture. I'm convinced it looks like the splitter on this, but with the middle joined:

    I though the vogue kits came with the big PIAA fog lights?

    EDITED: found it & you're right, it is vogue, the PIAA one is vogue evolution.

    Thanks

    Looks like its gonna be the hard way as I refuse to spend £750 on a splitter that isn't even CF. Watch this space.....
