broken splitter

[kean]

So i was driving down a dirt road yesterday and hit a bump in the road herd a crunch and when i got out to take a look i found my front splitter had snapped in the middle area and has ripped off all of the clips.

I want to remove it as its trashed but it looks as though the sides are glued down... does anyone know how i can remove it without ruining my front bumper?

Presume it's the Renault sport big black splitter.?
It's bolted to the bumper at each end and if removed will leave a hole about the size of a pencil.

Yes mate its the front splitter with renault sport written on, It seems whoever had it fitted decided screws wasnt enough and has glued the dam thing on aswell. I have managed to remove the screws but its still stuck on there by the glue and i havent got a clue how to remove it without damaging the front bumper :001_unsure:

Very carefully, maybe get a sharp scalpol and keep running it between the bumper and the splitter only increasing depth a little at a time until you're all the way through the glue.

If its glued on try to heat it up and melt the glue

Just go careful with your bumper and paint if using heat.
