Not sure if this one is the same but is definitely similar ... eBay front splitter

I'd have to look up what they used, but on out Dutch forum someone put a splitter from a Clio

or a Seat on his car. Only required slight modification and does look quite good I must say...

I'll have a look tonight, if I remember to do so...

See i was looking at the TTE from splitter (Spats i think they are called) as i have the rear bumper, but thought this looked cool. Just realsied my front bumper is different :/

Did some searching: this one is from a Renault Clio:

The one I had in mind is offline, so I can't show the pics anymore, but I DID find this one from a Seat Leon Cupra R:

Guessing this is it on eBay then? looks similar? was it easy to fit?

I think the original looks far better, anyone else agree?

I know the answer to this one! I used to be a member of the Fiat club and I ve attached a link to show how you can make this front splitter. Its actually from a RENAULT LAGUNA MK 1, and I remember them well, as they used to have them on all the boy racer cars in the old Max Power magazines. I used to wonder how they fitted them on cars, but its actually cut, and then joind back together to fit smaller cars.

Here`s the link folks. Scroll down to see the actuall pics of the Reanult Laguna splitter:

Thanks AygoIronman. Youve been very helpful!!

Thanks AygoIronman. Youve been very helpful!!

No need to thank yourself chap. Thanks AygoIronman.

Sadly i love my Aygo as it is without another chin, so will leave well alone.

Agree Blackrumple. Why does a car need a "double chin" anyway? Manufacturers spent thousand making a slim profile for low drag CD, and we stick, glue or tack on bits and pieces to make it less areo dynamic.

I ll thank myself again. "Youv`e been very helpful with your information, and thanks for the link. I like how you contribute to this club"

I'm no specialist in aerodynamics, but my gut feeling says this lip doesn't have that much of an influence, since our cars

have a "double chin" as standard: look under your bumper and you'll see a rubber lip across the width of the car...

Not having this lip can caus a LOT of windnoise... I once dug my car into a muddy bank, causing the lip to fold backwards

and stay that way because of the mud. Took me 3 days to find out why my car was so loud on the highway all of a sudden...

[AygoIronman]

Yes, I noticed the small lip under the engine bay. It disturbs the airflow underneath the car to reduce noise.

I read the NEW Yaris Hybrid coming out next year has more emphasis on aerodynamics, and I read in last weeks Auto Express that the new Yaris has a FLAT floor plan to make the car slip through the air.

Here is a link for the new Yaris Hybrid:

and for those who dont know what I mean by a flat floor plan:
