Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has pictures of Tuscans with not only the "S" front splitters, but the corner splitters or winglets as they seem to be known?

There is an expensive black Tuscan in the classifieds with them fitted and I think they look incredible, but before I commit to buying a pair and painting them, wanted to see if anyone else has fitted them?

edit: I think I just realised they are mk2 items!! Anyone have pics of them on a mk1??

I did on my old tuscan and despite detractors who felt the whole look was chavvy it looked amazing. PM me and I'll send some pics

Thanks, do they remove the need for the normal central splitter does anyone know?

Here are pics of the splitters fitted to my Mk2S, the single centre one was never fitted to the Mk2 so guess you could do away with it? Not sure there would be room for both anyway scratchchin

That looks so sweet, I think the front panel of the mk2 has a semi built in splitter hence why the mk2's don't require one. I'm tempted to buy a pair and offer them up to see what they look like!

TC,

If you can wait, not my thing waiting..., I am going to fit the S splitter to mine with the MK2 winglets that are already on there. Ok there isn't much space width wise so I will mount it below the winglets. Thinking the car is pretty wild already this wont look out of place, albeit low and liable to kiss speed humps, I will trial it to gauge reaction.

Sorry I can't post pics but me n "compootties" ummhhh. Did you see the link?

I think this still looks good! Pepper pot grill combined mk2 grill and winglets.

Not 100% sure. I believe its still in the chaps profile. The back isn't too bad either

Here's a few more.






My only concern is theres no real mounting kit for the winglets on a mk1.

I can't see that being too hard to sort out. Some pretty turned Ti spacers would get these sitting nicely on a mk1.

Matti that's exactly what I'm after, at the mo mine is a standard mk1 but would like to fit a splitter, and prefer the winglets to the S one. I don't suppose anyone will know if they do anything for downforce rather than just look pretty?! (Although the S one doesn't look like it should do much yet it does)

These all look great! I love all the different ones!

Just a sensible thought though...splitters are a pain when driving on not perfect roads and car parks etc.

I'm really careful and I've caught my s splitter on a road (it hit a cats eye!)

On my wedge I have taken the splitter off as it used to hit the road all the time and makes such a horrid noise when it does (plus the damage of course). Tvrs have long noses and therefore the front stick out making it susceptible to catching these spoilors.what are these wing ones like from that front?
