I haven't seen many of these done. I did it purely for looks. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. We'll see how long it lasts.

It's a pretty nice piece when mounted underneath most bumpers. Just really, really heavy.

Yeah, when I was trying to decide on this I was searching through threads and saw that you said that. I'm certainly not the weight saving type that you are haha. It is pretty heavy.

Thanks for the kind words.

From the pics, it looks like there's a slight gap, maybe you should move it back (towards the rear of the car) a bit...dunno, could be just the angel though.

Derek, you change fronts like I change underwear.

I think it should be moved back some, but it looks good and it's unique !

Say hello to the ground. You will scrape that thing worse than any bodykit you could get. Be very careful since once you damage CF, you're pretty much done with. Another thing to worry about is when that thing hits the ground, it will put pressure on your stock bumper. CF will own the plastic bumper.

Haha what can I say, I like change.

Tony, I actually called you last week sometime but you didn't answer.

Tech, it's not NEARLY as low as it looks. I have had 3 other lips on there before this, all of which were more than an inch lower.

As far as moving it farther back, there is no way. The fender linings prevent the splitter from going any farther back. It's amazingly stable haha. I have had it up to 110mph with no issues. It's one of those things that definitely looks better in person.

Nice splitter!

I threw the stillen front splitter on my Z to check it out and see how it looked and it's not bad... same deal where pictures don't do it justice.

CF is definitely more baller than the urethane though
