I emailed them straight away and sent pictures Aswell they said because it's still in the sealed packet and I obviously haven't broke it trying to fit it there going to send another set and there's no need to return the broken set either so allthough I'll have to wait another week I'll have 3 spares lol

Tell me about it mate!! Atleast it's being resolved hopefully! Just have to wait another week or so for them to turn up lol, it wasn't new when I fitted it, it came off another car where it used to rub on the belt lol, yeah it's about £40 from lmf eBay page just type "pipercross Vxr filter" get the 80mm not the 70mm neck size ! Great inner wing filler lol can't comment on weather it works well haven't ran the car for ages lol
