New splitter...what you think?

Hey I just put this on to see how it fits before I store my car for the winter. What do you think of the splitter? Dont mind the pics or the car as I just took them quick.

Hmm interesting. Its shaped around the curves unlike the Stillen spiltter. I am not a fan of splitters though. Id rather get a front lip. Looks ok though.

A little thick for splitter, it looks like it's confused.

Thinner would be nice, but that's just like Stillen. Thicker would be nice too, but it'd be more of a lip.

I agree, I think it's a hint too thick; a little thinner and it would be right at home

IMO it looks great -- for just a splitter. I wanted the best of both worlds and got the front lip AND splitter from Autokits-X but for just a splitter I do think that looks really really good.

Hey when you guys say it’s thicker, where do you mean?

Oh and yeah I took the idea from Stillen. It is different though as it has less of the lip on the sides. More egsaduration in the front but I think the pics I took are at bad angles because it actually doesn’t stick out that much in person.

I hope to take better pictures once it’s all mounted...but thanks to Mother Nature that won’t be till April or so. lol. Damn snow!!!!

I think it's a great look... Can't tell from the pics, but if it sits flush in depth with the front mudguards that would be very cool (take a full side shot and post)... Nothing's wrong with a splitter with a full lip clearance... Its actually a great idea for the costumer who wants the look and appearance of both worlds... I'll consider a "split-lip" Hahahahaaa

I dont love it. Looks like it was an add on as opposed to flowing with the car IMO.

I actually made it. Carbon fibre but I painted it black. I get the carbon fibre cheap so I could always rewrap it.

When you guys say its thick, what area are you talking about? The hight?

As for the flow of it, (Kidcane, Sidebar: Love the look of your car!)I see what you mean...again this pics are not by any means great angles. Maybe Ill take the car out when its nice and try again.
