I think you have found them. If they are finished on both sides, I believe they are it!

Here is a rough version of my solution to the Auto Tecknic CF splitter mounting worries.
These things will be very stable and never rip off on the highway now!

I'm going to clean up the shape, put some counter sink bolt holes in them and get a set powder coated black.

^^^ You better install that right, otherwise you may kill someone with those blades if they fly.

Are they not bolted on??? don't tell me its just 3M?? I don't see how they would come off at high speeds if they were installed correctly.

They are boomerangs, they will come back if they fly away

On the serious side, they will absolutely be installed correctly.

Nuts and bolts will stay in place... but not the splitter:

I personally think this is the best looking splitter for our front bumper:




But i'm not willing to spend $470 for splitters...might as well buy an entire front lip for a couple hundred more.

Thanks and as far as mine possibly coming off..... no possible way as each have four huge fender washers (black) on both sides along with the splitters themselves are finished on both sides so two layers of carbon fiber. Only way they would come off is if they tear the whole front clip off....... Not that this is in my plans anytime soon...

That should hold up really well...nicely done.

Glad to report that mine are still holding up great with 8 screws per side and oversized washers. I've scraped on driveways/speed bumps more times than I can count with no cracking or having them fly off.
