Elise Cup Front Splitter

[IowanF1999]

Hello everyone, 

It has been a while since I've made a post. It's finally that time of year that the car is coming out more frequently and for some reason I seem to have back luck with my front splitter. I was wondering if fellow or ex Elise Cup owners could shed some light onto how you manage to keep the splitter in good nick?

It's a little deflating when it bottoms out or hits something and you step out the car and see the damage. 

Any suggestions welcome 🙂, 

Iowan

Apologies for the crappy pic but this is my diy solution, 3mm polycarbonate and 3M trim tape. I just traced the shape of the spoiler front ears then shaped the polycarbonate to match. They're set back by a couple of mm so you can't see them unless you're looking from underneath. I doubt it will save any catastrophic impact but it does a good job protecting against road scrapes.

On the down side it effectively lowers the front buy a few mm, but on the up side, it works, plus they're cheap and easy to replace 👍

Thanks for the responses gents! It is very much appreciated 🙌

 

 Do like the solution you have there Johnathan. Think I'll have to order some 3M stuff this weekend and give it a go

 

Thanks,
