Yep, from Dixon in April 2012 Kim said.

Do you think it's worth going back to APR via Dixon or direct (to APR USA)? I'm not really sure where I stand or how to go about that as it's been over year, I don't have a receipt and I'm not the original owner. Any advice on this will be much appreciated.

I'd call Dixon, I'm sure he will help as he will remember Kim buying it. Recipt or not, its not very old and Kim and I looked after it, so APR should sort it.

Dixon is at the Ring ATM though.

This appears to be a problem with APR wings. When I had my GTC wing it developed the same faults. It's probably down to the inferior clear coat used in the factory and overall poor manufacturing process. I wouldn't touch APR products with a barge pole now. I hope Dixon is able to help otherwise you may need to strip the clear coat and redo

I had no idea APR products were like this, oh well we live and learn. But with that said, it still functions as it should so that's the main thing I suppose.

I will get on to Dixon and see if he can do me a favour.

Thanks all for the help

The carbon fibre on my APR splitter isn't really all that neat either round the edges. Fortunately it's under the car so you won't see it..
