If all is good after your evaluations, would you be considering adding it onto your line of things you carry for the F? Reason I ask cause you are pretty much my go to source if other company's give me the run arounds about shipping stuff to Guam. I look forward to see what your impressions are on the product, thanks!

Yep certainly. I always look at total experience like packaging etc, especially on aero parts because they are just too fragile. These ship via UPS so I am a bit skeptical. But we can figure out a way to get to Guam even if I have to specify they be crated to get them there in one piece. I have been looking for that sweet spot on price and quality and I am pretty picky myself.

Just installed my Auto Tecknic splitters.

Word of caution if you plan on pre-drilling the holes for bolts; my drill bit nicked the windshield washer fluid hose that feeds the headlight washers (it is clipped to the inside of the bumper skin). It was a very wet and messy install for me.

So I just wanted to follow up on the AF front splitter fitment. It was pretty bad...I mean if you want to have both sides on. Each side would fit perfect but the splitter obviously shrank in the mold leaving neither side able to fit at the same time. Worse yet was AF customer service. Still trying to get our money back and they stopped responding to our emails. This is why I do this, too many companies not willing to listen to feedback and fix their products. That is what we try to do and only sell products that we feel the company behind them is worth a damn.

^ Thanks for sticking your neck out for us FIGS and checking into the product. By any chance you would be carrying any other aero products... maybe Tom's? What about an exhaust option? Just checking, thanks for all you do for the community bro!

Also, the splitter in the advertisement pic and the splitter you got look very different to me! The advertised one looks much better, IMHO.

On the auto kinetic front lips I had a failure last week. I was making a high speed run(quicker than you would hit in a 1/4 mile) and had one fly off the car. There were seven screws holding it in place.

They included lock tight on all the screws. I went back and was able to find the splitter and it looked like this. I am debating what to do now…. Get a full lip or just get another set or if anyone has a spare passenger side one that would be epic!!

Get a lip that's designed for our cars. These things are a joke IMO. Lasted me 2 days or one run to 100.
