lol! thanks, badstangt. feel free to clone away!

cougarfan, you have a very good eye. I did pin the center up a little tighter, as there was just too much space between bumper and the splitter and it didn't look like it would hold up at triple digit speeds (plus, I think it looks a little more unique). I'll take some better pics asap.

not for everyone, but I like it, and it is what the op inquired about.

hahah...trying to pull a fast one. how much space do you think there was between the spoiler and the bumper before you pinned it up? would it be possible to take 2 spoilers and cut a little bit off and and stick it to the other one to fill the gap...would that be possible?

i say you go for it. the gt500 splitters are only like 100 dollars and it looks amazing. just dont go down hills too fast bc they scrape horribly when lowered

I'm slammed in the front even with my 20's. I just want that big bulky front end like the h&r project car. Like someone else already said tho, it's an inexpensive piece so who cares if I scrape it up. If it goes right I'm planning on painting it white too. I really like nite's car a lot with it. Good job. Maybe a little write up would be nice. Lol. More pics for sure tho pleeeeaaaasssseeee

so you are going to paint the chin spoiler white? are you going to paint the black piece on the bumper white too?...I suggest you do it exaclty like the H&R and paint ur whole bumper white and leave the gt500 spoiler black and cut off the 90 degree angles that go up the wheel well

yeah, that would be possible, but it'll be a lot cheaper and easeir to fill it some kind of a rubber strip.

devin, I really don't have much to writeup; just kept trimming and fitting until it looked right. I did remove the plastic panel from underneath, as it interfered with the splitter, and I used the small screws from that panel on the rear of the splitter, as most of the holes lined up. I knew I should have taken some photos... good luck with yours! should definitely look sweet in white!
