As many of you know the options for exterior styling are limited for our platform. For the most part all we can do there is tint, black out chrome, debadge, add badges, lower the suspension and add a nice set of wheels. There is a rear window spoiler to buy and a front chin spoiler.
Watching other vehicles enhance their appearance with exterior styling modifications available to them makes me feel left out. We really get the short end of the stick with this platform. It's such a good sleeper the vast majority of the aftermarket world didn't take notice, with the exception of just a few.
I like the way splitters look and enhance the appearance of mustang, cameros, corvettes, caddilacs...etc. So I looked around and searched out universal ones but nothing was wide enough for our massive front ends. I decided to make my own.
It's constructed of 1/4" ABS plastic (rigid and durable) and I covered the cut edge with 1/4" Trim Lok. It's fastened to my Extreme Dimensions front chin spoiler with 10 stainless steel bolts, lock washers, washers and nuts. For the splitter rods I went with Full Torque Racing (FTR) rods for their quality and to stiffen up this splitter under downforce. Even with this splitter not replacing the splash guard it certainly works. I can tell its much more stable at high speeds than ever before.
Some of you have expressed interest in this splitter for your own rides. I'm interested to see if any others would also be interested. I also will start making one that will fit the SHO's that do NOT have the Extreme Dimensions front chin spoiler.
Currently I am going to have my splitter dimensions cleaned up and cut with a laser jet. If I'm going to send you guys a splitter it's going to have to be quality craftsmanship. I'm also going to look into cleaning the edge with an edge router so that its optional if you want the Trim Lok. A splitter would come to you with all fasteners, Trim Lok if you want it and the FTR splitter rods.
This does require drilling into your lower grille and removing the front bumper is a must to do that and secure the splitter rod.
Thank you for your interest. Stay tuned for updates.
