Where can you obtain a V8 splitter?

That could be the corner part of it TC but I meant the whole thing which you can just make out as fitted to my bumper below and runs across the whole length

Ah. I don't think my photo is the right bit. The splitter you show is a moulded strip which I've not seen before. Do you have the Part Number?

EDIT: It's Item 2 here.



This drawing is displayed for both MG and 75 versions.

The part you posted looks like one of the corners of the undertray to me, I have no part number for the splitter and can't see it listed at Rimmers even as unobtainable

I have been to Rover breakers to day and he has a bin full of these splitters complete, he doesn't have many premium bumpers left now only a couple and says he has cut up about 700 as he couldn't sell them

When I fit my premium bumper as Steve says there is a gap between undertray and bumper and the splitter is needed to bridge that gap

Yes, this is it: http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/ItemList...yshell--m-3084

They seem to have missed off the Rover 75 front end. The under piece (Item 2) seems unique to the V8 so I assumed this was the splitter.

The Russian site shows the Rover Premium bits, but no splitter.






Anyhow, you say I'll need one to close the front edge?
