Those splitters look great... Not too aggressive. How did you fab up the sheet metal, those look like clean cuts, I am going to take a guess and say jigsaw? Where did you get them?

I like em!

RobLambo, i have the GFX front lip, the same you have, how did you installed them? Are they plastic or Carbon? I'd preffer plastic because i know i will scratch them eventually so why bother buying an expensive carbon one.

Lastly, where did you get them?

Thanks! Like the above post, I made a custom reinforcing plate and brackets, I've heard other members having a problem with them Snapping off... 105 mph so far and no problems , the gfx lip isn't completely flat on the corners so it got a little tricky making brackets to mount the splitter w/o bending the slittets itself (isf bumpers are reletively flat). I have them tucked in for a subtle splitter look

They are carbon, and yes, my axxhole puckers everytime I scrape or see a dip

Overall, I love them, it's adds a little aggressiveness to the front. I was getting bored with look of my gfx lip.

Oh and I purchased them from autotecknic awhile back
