Default RC F - Splitter Kits

Hello All!

I was looking around for some Front and Side splitter kits and came across this option made by Ventus Autoworks:

https://ventusautoworks.com/product/...dge-trim=no-10

I wasn't able to find any post or reviews on this product wanted to see if anyone may have. What are your thoughts? The product is much more affordable than majority splitter kits offered by other manufacturers. Thanks in advance

It's plastic bolted on with rods. It's a splitter vs lip so comparison is moot. Plus, I highly doubt it connects to the chassis which means it's going to cause eventual bumper sag. Overpriced and underdeveloped; Thank you, next.

yeah, sorry to say, but I don't like the look...the "splitter support rods" just look soooo tacky on a car like the RCF. If you're looking for a more cost effective option, I picked up one of these via the RCF facebook group (reach out to Rick Jones in that group if you are interested):

Around Black Friday they had a killer deal, and even at this price it's a lot less expensive than the alternatives and seems to be fairly decent quality. Currently having it wrapped in PPF so I can get it installed soon, but quite a few people have them and seem to be pleased with the product.

Agree with others. RCF does not go with that kind of setup. I say save up for Lexon as that looks great and cheaper than other kits.

We can do an NIA Auto design lip kit, pretty affordable!

Thank you for the information. Would you happen to know the paint code performed on those splitters? I am hoping you can match the color similar to the stock rear diffuser on the RC F.

putting the support rods in the bumper as shown is a terrible idea. Pull in and out of the wrong driveway and youll bottom out and shove that rod right out of that bumper cover. as well as bumpers today you do not want to take off and put back on too many times the tabs that snap into the fenders get wore out and itll never fit right again
