Brendan, just FYI I ended up using twice as many screws as you sent (I don't like things falling off) and between that and anchoring it to the skidplate in the rear I feel like I could almost stand on it! Great job on these dude!

    Any installed pics with the skidplate?

        Soon, I snapped a few with my phone but they suck. As soon as I get a chance to get under my car with a real camera I'll post some detailed photos.

              Just saw that you're doing them for the Reiger now, I'm very interested.

                Getting the material tomorrow to make a prototype. Should have enough material left over for a second one if your interested.
                I'll start a thread about the rieger splitter once its done.

                    PM me when you do a rieger splitter. I'm torn between getting a rieger lip or just an iS lip.

                            Did one for sennafan and because the slope on it is curved and the raised part is as thick as the material, its impossible to do w/o making it in 3 pieces which isn't something I like doing as it eliminates the reason I'm making the splitters.

                              Holy Downforce, Batman!

                              So I can now officially say that these splitters actually create downforce. Enough to break spoiler clips when in the triple digits...

                              I think mine is salvageable but I may be ordering another one soon... I have mine bolted to my skidplate (broke the zipties so I wanted more security) and that was enough to keep from ripping it off completely so the leading edge just got scraped.

                              Note to buyers, use new spoiler clips and you'll be fine.



                              I LOVE THESE SPLITTERS!

                                OMG. I'm laughin my ass off that that happened. Holy crap I'm impressed that it held together. Glad it all turned out right. I may do that for mine as well so I don't run into an issue like that.

                                Lemme know how it goes with it.
