Just to add... despite liking these, I'm not sure my 510 is going to be that aggressive looking to warrant the big boy snow plough! Additionally I live in London so ABS plastic is definitely speedbump friendly as opposed to FRP!

Yes that's the one quackshot - very universal and they're a great price for brand new. It's in two parts so if you need it wider you can leave a gap in the middle and fit your reg plate over the gap.

Coincedentally i also need a front splitter for my Datsun 510. The BRE spoiler looks the best but is USA only so shipping and tax will be high: The MK1 Golf spoiler is a common choice but looks a bit odd on a 510. I wondered if there is a UK equivalent from an Escort, Cortina, Anglia or similar. I haven't come across one yet. Charlie

As above, under 30 quid posted... can't really go wrong. I'll get one ordered... or 2 or 3. There's also the B310 and the colt celeste to pimp!

The GTi will fit perfectly on the #510 I can confirm. If you really want a fancy one, I believe you can get the same design in carbon as well but @ 4 times the price! Sadly this spoiler does not work on the b310.

Probably not for a few reasons. 1) I don't want to take a bank loan for something that I may smash off. 2) I like the OEM look of the goof one. 3) I already ordered the goof one!

Mk2 escort front spoiler can be adapted and look lovely. These are available in fibreglass and aluminium as well so a chop in half and made to measure adaption is easy. Or you could always buy a TS cup racer kit and be my hero

The lower valance on the 510/610/710 is curved in that it has gentle sloping edges as it approaches the front wings and this matches the contours of the golf spoiler reasonably well and the valence flexes and takes up the spoiler shape once you tighten the fixings The b310 and the PA10 (violet/160j) on the other hand have an angular lower valence much more with the 80's styling. If using the golf spoiler or even the 510 BRE sppok one will have to trim the ends for it to sit on the valence and also add 1-2" of extra length as its not long enough.

Here's some ideas that don't utilise the ubiquitous golf item Datsun 100A - Too straight for the golf spoiler, folded from sheet (not by me) for Jonnysomerset. K11 Micra, a bit too curved for the golf spoiler Made from MDF sheet - I really aught to make another one of these for the red car.

And I won't sit down. And I won't shut up. And most of all I will not grow up.

The golf ones are very fragile damo, not at all floor/speedbump proof. I went through a couple on the caddy before I gave up. They black plastic but its not Abs as it just shatters when you tap it.

It'll no doubt sit in a box until Her Majestys Passport Office sort their curse word out, return my magic burgundy book that allows my back into blighty. Should of posted myself back in a DHL box, faster and no doubt cheaper.

Pictures/link to your B310? No links, I have very few pictures as the car is tucked away in the garage and didn't want to start any threads until progress begins. It's a loooow milage 1.3 or 1.4 but pretty lively. 100% original biege/brown combo

I've recently but a Hakosuka style chin spoiler on my B310, now granted its positioning is temperary, its exactly what I was after. Been a year since ive logged on here. Will post pics in an hour or so...

Would a dolly sprint spoiler work?
