Well, I thought that but anytime I google it, I only ever get images of the cosworth bumper and if im honest, im not very keen on the cosworth bumper for a fiesta! :(

They generally get fitted to the fiesta Si, as that splitter was made for that bumper as seen here:

fiesta-si-mk3-cossie-bib-spoiler-blended-to-si-bumper-vt191368/

That is obviously smoothed into the bumper, but they do come as a bib. But as I said, they are quite rare.

Thats the first one ive seen on a rs bumper too, doesnt really suit it in my opinion. I think the mcr splitter would look better. Personal taste and all that!

Ye, I actually seen them and they are really nice too but I think i prefer the first one. Are the MCR splitters easier to come by then?

They are probably becoming just as rare to be honest. They do pop up more often than a cossie one does though.

Nah you can't get them new anymore. The company who made the cossie one lost the moulds in a building fire, and the mcr one I'm not too sure about, but 99% sure you can't get it new.

that bumper is an mc rallying splitter,,

they are as above, rare as anything,, i baught one bout 4 years ago for 20 quid already fitted to a bumper,, but at new price was 120+ ebay anything from 50-100

there is also a rear mc rallying splitter, that is also unbelivably rare,, i have found one for sale, i baught for 30 quid on ebay, and havent seen one since,,

if you keep looking one will pop up,

and no im not seling mine :D

they`re going to be used in making "roary" a hfhv :)

mc rallying went bust about 5+ years ago, and a company called AML took over there moulds, i used to work for AML for a short time making bullet proof boards, but as said, they had a fire, and i assume the lot was lost, the fire happened after i had moved on so i dont know for sure if they we destroyed or sold on.

mc rallying used to work in partnership with a company called fibersports, fibersports made there stuff to a better quality imo, living on the isle of wight, and mc ralling being a isle of wight company, ive been done there many times, and put it this way, i paid extra and got my cossie bumper from fiber sports, then i modded it my self to remove the top grill rather than have mc ralling make me one.

im not sure of fibersports are still in business or not, but if they are, its worth a call to see if they can help you, but tbh, them MCR splitters havent been able to be got new for many years now so the answer will more likey be a no.

as for the cossie splitter on a std frst/2i bumper, i would expect that to be a custom jobbie, as that car pictured is the only ones ive ever seen with it, and i think danny has hit the nail on the head by saying its more like a cossie bib ment for a si bumper, and its been grafted onto the std bumper.

This place still lists the front splitter, might be worth giving them a try. I know my brother managed to get part of a well old bodykit for his mondeo from them.
