I’ve managed to crack the front splutter on my new Portofino. Does anyone know if anyone repairs them?

If it’s carbon fibre, try finding a carbon bike repair specialist. They do great work and for far less than the cost of automotive carbon specialists.
Bike as in pushbike?

My quick search on Google maps brought a few up local to me, and I’d be happy to let them have a try.

Can you post a picture? Would help to see the extent of the damage. I bust a rear diffuser on a Lusso, couldn’t repair it, not a cheap experience.
It’s just a crack, but sadly quite an expensive one.

The first quote is about £2,000, which is quite a bit more than I expected.

I’ll see what else I get.

That's extremely high. I'd expect to pay in the ball park of £350 for that.
I’d guessed at £6-700 including removing it and putting it back on.
