Default APR Wind Splitter

Hey, I wanted to see if anyone had pictures of z's with this wind splitter on their cars. I love the look of the rods and splitter but just couldn't find any on z's. They sell this at intense motorsport.

I've never seen it on a Z but it sure looks like quality stuff.

I thought of doing this but with the body kit I have and springs it's cutting it close. I'm already at just over 4.5 inches from ground on front clip. Right now I can go almost anywhere I need to.

Here's another for the Do-Luck bumper. It's a nice piece and I've not seen it on any stock bumpers. Be the first!

Here is what I did, cut a large piece of cardboard to the shape of the splitter and spray paint it black. Place it under your bumper and looks at from all angles. It will give you a general idea.

I had it on my car when I first got it. It warped in the middle and caused the front end to do some funky stuff at high speeds. Looked good though. I will post pics when in get home from work.

Glad you mentioned that. To the OP; it is essential that it is properly mounted and support rods are used. I tore one up and damaged my bumper going 100+ mph. I added additional support brackets underneath to the splitter and bumper to protect against the added downforce and stress.

Do they make one for the Ingz kit? that would look pretty sweet, though with a drop, there isnt much room for air under that lip let alone a splitter.

They can.....you'll need to send them a template of the bumper so they can custom fit.
