Corner splitters

[macky17]

Have decided not to go for a full splitter on the m400 but quite like the look of the corner 'boomerang' ones. I know from sjc that the guy/company which once made them no longer does - anyone know a place I can find a pair please?

I have a set I took off my 3R, could probs do with a rub down and re-paint, let me know if interested

I bought from these guys in the past before I got my carbon full splitter, last time a couple of years ago, cost was about £30 for a pair

I did a similar thing. Did u supply them a CAD file?

[mrpbailey]

Yeh I think I did, someone on here drew it up?

[mgbond]

Ah, that would be me then. Lol

Want to get the edges smoothed out thought as the CAD file was made up of lots of little lines so u end up with small machine marks on the edges.

I thought it all got re-done to be a bit smoother? The last set I bought was definitely neater than the others, must have smashed my way through at least 5 sets of these over the years haha

I think we asked Hoyin to do it. Do u still have the CAD file u could send me as I want some spares.

Cheers

I've just found an attachment in an old email for a dwg of the splitters,I don't have a program to open it though to check, can email it to you if you like?

Word of warning, my corner splitters snapped doing over 170 at the 'Ring!

Just to clarify - the £30 pair from Trent plastics, were they fully formed moulded splitters or simply cut from a sheet of plastic? Seems very cheap.

Cut from a sheet of acrylic.

They look good though. Now I just need to find the paint code for an m400s mirrors/spoiler ends so I can spray them to match...

[Hollowpockets]

My splitter is full width and painted black, has the natural curves and graining of a nice sheet of ply...

If I went Acrylic boomerang splitters then I wouldn't spray them as they don't last forever.

I carbon dipped mine.

Hi Guys,

Really like the look of these and i think they would be easier to get out here in my suitcase :-)

If I contact Trent plastics will they know what I am on about?

Thanks

Trent plastics are going to make me a set of these (they have the CAD file already). The guy is asking me how thick I want them. Any ideas? 7-10mm? No price finalised yet.

7mm if that the thinnest.

I'll take a set
