Maxton Aftermarket parts

Anyone have any experience with Maxton aftermarket parts? I'm looking at the gloss black front splitter for my Vantage.

I have that splitter on my 07 v8v. (Gloss Black) the fit is quite good. there are "no" pre drilled mounting hole,but if i remember
correctly some indentations where hole should be drilled. i did cut out notches in a few places on the splitter mounting flange
to make it fit to my liking,i wanted a clean smooth fit not the drop down look on either side with other types of splitters

Ok great! Thanks for response and pics. I'm looking for a subtle upgrade to the front.

Like your driving lights.

i didn't know if i would like the look or not so instead of paying $$$$ for the factory mesh grill i bought a peice of aluminum diamond grill mesh on ebay and cut it to fit. lights are a generic pair of slim fit driving lights parts total cost $80 usd . no drilling of car, can return back to factory easily.

do the lights drop down so you can fire some rockets? 😉

Someone on Facebook bought a project Vantage with a lot of Maxton parts.
He was planning to sell the parts and restore to factory.
You should contact him since he is also located in Florida.
Ping me if you need the contact.

I do have a Maxton splitter on my Porsche 997 and love the look.
