Build so far
Hi everyone. Just wanna get some feedback so far and maybe some new ideas. I’ve seen some different threads on builds. Tomorrow my new rear spoiler is coming in and I’m excited.
Here is the rear spoiler I ordered. It’s going on tomorrow and I will update as it goes. I’ve done everything myself so far and already put one on. Just want a new one.
I also ordered a new front lip because I destroyed my maxton one. Never fight a piece of wood with a car. Unfortunately it seems like the one I ordered seems to only fit the svr front bumper so I need to modify the center piece. Should be fun😑.
Here it is. Looks good but I’m not sure how it’s gonna turn out. If anyone else got this and managed to fit it on the regular f types front bumper please tell me how.
so far the car is on konig diverge wheels, has maxton design side skirts and front lip. Also has rear diffuse extension, 15% tints, rear fixed spoiler and chrome delete. Car also has yellow calipers and straight pipe. Some may not like that but it sounds stock just much much louder. Annoyingly loud but so much fun. It also has r1 concept rotors and porterfield r4s pads. Anyone who needs brakes please get that setup, it’s much cheaper and better.
Here’s how she sits now. If anyone wants more pics I can definitely get some.

Let us know how and if you tackled the center piece.
The shape is not THAT different but some cutting and glueing is definitely required, and custom mount tabs.
Taking off the original piece should be doable removing the under tray only, but i did it with the bumper off so I’m not exactly sure, other than that just a few small torx, 6 or 8 iirc.
it’s good to have something being plug and play, but none of the aftermarket ones look cohesive to the flow of the f type, i especially can’t stand the kink on the side and a thick extra piece under the existing chin spoiler.
The svr splitter lay out and design is perfection imo and such coincidence we decided to try it at the same time!

You will see what i mean when you hover the center piece over the og, and once you take it off it’s obvious how much work needs to be done just to mount it.
Side pieces are super easy, i secured it using the original splitter screws, though only 2 far ends would reasonably fit, there is about a finger depth of gap in the center section mounted this way, so ideally a support piece should be added.
It’s also a good idea to coat the under side of these pieces, they look and feel like uncoated fiber and came in with some water marks soaked in, i wouldn’t trust them to last if it see water and grime regularly.

how difficult would you say it would be to get it to fit. Spent a lot of money on it and I’m just worried

Technically the center piece can work like this, trim off the high spots on the side and push in a bit further, 2 black pieces can be somewhat easily attached to cover the seams, or integrated into a splitter rods.
But, i feel it is gonna look way too busy and clumsy, do an idea for you to decide!
