Have you guys had trouble mounting the ones from Chrisc, how is the fitment. I know they are like fiberglass and are the mounting brackets even strong enough cus they feel like they can crack of if I hit a bump or something or even from wear and tear vibrations. As a matter of fact, the longest bracket on it, already cracked in shipping. How do I fix this, or any tips on how to make the best of the replicas. I really wanted the oem version but this is what I got. Thanks.

trdproven,
I removed those long brackets, you actually don't need them in my opinion. I believe mine cracked as well when i recieved them a long time ago. In fact I was one of the first ones to recieve the SSIII splitters that did not fit well also. Just remove them and sand down those sharp edges and just drill a whole under where the long bracket used to be. I was unfortunately lucky enough to find some OEM Splitters and got rid of the fiberglass ones. They really held up pretty well for a while...as long as you're careful going up and down driveways, parking, etc. they should hold up. Just add some double tape for added strength also. I'm not sure if i have pics of them mounted on to my wheelwell without those brackets, but I'll look. If you need a pic taken I can do that also. -Christee- |
