That would be great! The pic in the for sale add doesn't show enough. But what I see I like. I also don't see any metal hangers on there. Good luck. Looking forward to that thread. Thanks.
Have ppl found a better option for the 11+ sport bumper?
Some guy posted this in one of the FB groups but when ppl asked him about it he went silent. It's pretty much exactly what I want. Does anybody have the resource/contacts to make this happen.
I also was having trouble finding a splitter for the 2011+, and wasn't sure how it would look on the car. I ended up going with a polyurethane splitter off eBay ($35) and bought rods ($15) to prevent it from flying away. Overall looks pretty good, and could be a platform to upgrade to the OG IPL splitter in the future

I thought it looked familiar. Here's where we can start, I think it looks sick. Wish I had a job so I can afford more mods.
Slightly off topic but I bought a carbon splitter from outcast garage a couple months ago along with a bumper, haven't had a chance to install either yet but was curious about the best way to mount the splitter. It's literally just a shaped sheet of carbon fiber, no holes, no clips, nothing. Should I drill into the splitter and custom fit it to the bumper with bolts? Should I rivet it on? Any advice is helpful.
Honestly, I haven’t had a chance to follow through with it. Wish I had measurements to have a better idea. The sellers will say no because they don’t know.
I have a 2011 G37 Sport Coupe and I have been searching for a front splitter for my G and was wondering if anyone had any good recommendations? I know Stillen makes one and have heard mixed reviews about it. Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.
Where are you located?
There are usually aero shops all around that can custom make you one for a lot less than buying something like stillen. Its usually made from alumalite, which is crazy strong. For example, my friend runs an aero shop here in Toronto called Newtype Performance: https://www.instagram.com/newtype_performance/ All they do is splitters and custom aero.

I played with it last year. You have to make a lot of cuts, and the way it sits after that is still not perfect. I decided to go the custom splitter route after failing with the subaru one.
This is what the subie one looks like on a sedan if you really do it right. Looking at it closely, its still not perfect, and the little winglets, since they have to be cut, flap around a bit due to the support being gone.
This is how much longer it is than the G bumper, so you have to make cuts:
This was me trying to make it work, after cutting off about 4 inches on each end:
So after that failed adventure, I went to my friend to make a proper splitter. Unlike the subie cosmetic one, this thing is functional, goes all the way back to the oil filter door, and is mounted with heavy hardware to become a part of the bumper instead of crappy self-tapping screws.
