SS-III front spliters, having a few issues with the left side Options

[SpardaXVII]

Hey guys, I'm having a few issues getting these to fit right on the left side. I was wondering if any of you have had any issues similar to this.
I got the right side fitting almost perfectly with a minor gap but the left side is giving me problems.
Here's a few pics of my progress. (sorry for the bad quality only have my phone for pics atm)


these two bolts are fitting not too badly but its the other two.





when I have the two bolts that are in the 2nd picture in all the way its sticks out quite a bit (4th picture)

you can round out the holes more to get a better fit, keep in mind you must play around with this factor for all brackets. Also, if you are good with fiber glass I would put some along the backside of the splitter towards the top, then flatten it out, so you can put double sided tape for extra support.

yups what he said ^^ make the holes bigger in the direction you want the splitter to hug.

I have the same issue, but different side.

LHS Fit Perfect, RHS have a minor gap

Alright, thanks for the input guys I'll go give it some more time see how they turn out. I was just getting a little dizzy laying underneath my car and sitting up that many times so I had to stop for the night.

I had that same problem, and ended up doing the following:



It's kind of hard to see but I put a rivet through the back side of the splitter through the little lip on the fender. Very subtle, and clean looking.

Thank you for the idea it worked great! fitting it without the rivet was next to impossible. I just lined up the back with the fender and drilled a hole + rivet and It fits almost perfectly.

you need to shave and shape it took me some time still got gaps but from far it looks good thats what matters.

I just got my splitters in and was wondering how the front ofthe splitters holds tite? It dosent seem like it would hold when going fast.

from what I've gathered I think it varies quite a bit per car, the fronts of mine don't seem to have a problem fitting at all.
I put a rivet in the back of the LHS fender and it's really snug now.
On the right hand side it fit a lot easier with no real modification. There is a slight gap in the rear but nothing really noticeable.
It was hard for me to put some time aside to do it in one sitting due to work. If you have some time and patience experimenting with fitments you should be able to get it fitting.
I would suggest using a rivet gun if you have access such as Fastbird advised it works great.
