Thinking about getting a front spliter for the M400. I like the standard M12 one. Where can I buy one from and for how much?

hold on for a few weeks and some three piece carbonfibre ones will be available, otherwise its your friendly stealer for a standard one

Or you could buy my original one off me, just sitting in the garage.

Just seen you are way up north, wouldnt be able to post, so wait for the CF (which look a lot better anyway smile )

Sounds good, are you going to be selling them?

Have you done one of these before for the noble?

I have one of Colins. Quality is pretty good.

Needs to be three piece though as that will avoid having to replace the whole thing when you inevitably ding it.

If Colin produced his as a three piece design I would not bother to commission my own as I have no wish to crowd a market with duplicate products.

I have plenty of other bits (Nobles and others queuing up to get to prototype stage).

Looks good, is the underside flat? Do you know if the m400 definately has holes to accept a spliter?

Hi Ian, picture showing underside although not brilliant.

Not sure about the holes as I don't have a noble to check

how well does carbon deal with kerbs and speed bumps

it will eventually get a whack and i just wondered if it flakes or crumbles etc ?

could you do a flexible plastic type one that would bend rather than crack ?

biggriff is doing a 3 piece so if you do whack it its damage limitation
i made a lower splitter for my escos that was very plyable,so looking at this material for the noble
