    I recently got one of the "other" splitters. While it fits, and I have it mounted, I was disappointed with the quality. The inside cut was wavy, the ends of the splitter did not reach the ends of the spoiler, and the ends of the splitter were not the same length. I would spend the extra few bucks and buy this one if I had to do it again. Just my $0.02

        No sweat. Wish I could have found this thread before I purchased the "other" one.

              I got mine a week or so ago, car quit running :(, but quite impressed with quality.


              Edges are a bit rough but that was expected, guess cut with a jig saw. Makes edges hot. Not dissapointed at all though.

              Leaves room for sanding to your discression after fitment.

              THANKS!

                Yeah, your right, I'm still working on that, and I don't have an electric sander to get it all smooth. Sorry bout that, but yeah your right with at own discretion. Glad your happy.

                      Nope, now Speed Trapp Racing is selling mine, so gotta get it from them. Sorry. Its not listed on their site, but if you call Sean he can get you hooked up with one.

                        if you cut the plastic use rubbing alcohol coolant running over it. It helps a lot with keeping the edge cleaner.
                        bring it http://athomasmr23.mybrute.com

                          Just took them to the waterjet so all the next ones will be waterjetted.

                          And its about 30 minutes of cutting, so that would be way to much rubbing alcohol.

                              I just talked with Sean at speed trapp and he said that their 110 for a cosmetic one like Ryan'sd but thicker, and then he's also got some that are full undertray type ones that come with front stabilizers to help keep it stable. If your interested in them, sean said to email him at sean@speetrappracing.net

                                Is Sean using the same stabilizers I did or did he find a better source? Are you making these for Speed Trapp or did they take over your methods?
