Big Gordon Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Has anyone used them for parts, looking to buy a front splitter/spoiler for my '03 WRX?
craig79 Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Very good company to deal with mate, would recommend them. Have a splitter from them on the car the noo. Very good fitment just make sure you remind them to put the fixings in the box with the splitter Craig.
scouk Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 As above... I've got an HT Auto's splitter on my bugeye.. Can't fault it.. Very similar to the official prodrive blobeye splitter at a fraction of the cost! Never had a problem with them.. (infact I think they made a few posts on here recently)
speech Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Had a front splitter on mine from them, great fit and looked the business! I say had since I cracked the corner and repaired it, but then on the Aberdeen Santa Cruise I noticed it was all looking a bit worse for wear, later on that week I removed it from the front in 6 bits!! I blame the wife, she "thinks" she may have hit something one day on the way to work when I was away - wimmin!!! However - I know that it did handle quite a bit of abuse before it gave up the ghost, couple of times it ended up on top of a kerb, once it even bent back quite a bit further than what I thought it would without any lasting problems! Would get another one but with the prodrive springs on it was a bit of a PITA some places TBH.
Big Gordon Posted February 26, 2008 Author Posted February 26, 2008 Thanks for the responses guys Was a bit worried about the vulnerability of it but my car needs it as the front looks a bit plain compared to the STI spoiler on the back. My car sits at standard height anyway so it's not too low.
colzo Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 Not trying to put you off but I've read so many threads on ScoobyNet about the cheaper splitters cracking, snapping etc. I've got the genuine STI splitter and have had no probs in over 2 years! Just a thought mate.

Just a thought mate. Have read the same stuff masel but think these were mostly the fibre glass ones no ?? The HT ones are made of a flexi plastic - poly.... something, I can certainly vouch for the flexability of them, you can pretty much bend them to the point where the two ends meet and not a crack in sight - wayhaaayy Certainly no denying the oe stuff is great but at three times the price - wouldnae be me Craig.
RS Grant Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 I had a revolution splitter on my Hawkeye... and it was brilliant quality but cracked and shattered into a whole heap of bits when I caught it on a bit of road I was crawling over (c10mph). I now have the HT Autos plastic one fitted and quality is about 95% as good as the Revolution one but I am a bit more confident that if I was to kiss the same bit of tarmac that killed my original one, then I'd come out the other side with it intact with this plastic one. Cheers, Grant
