Default stillen v6 front spoiler

I sure some members have installed this front spoiler.
are you happy with it?
did you notice if it helped with front downforce?
I do like the look,but need some more front downforce.

I have seen where it was said that the nose feels light after 140 mph.
How can I edit? I would like to change skillen to stillen

Sorry for being a killjoy, I'm not going to give advice to someone who might be trying to go 140+mph on a public road. You also aren't going to see any major improvements in downforce from it, purely cosmetic.

I agree with lostboyz on the speed issue on public roads allthough we're ALL guilty of speeding on the roads if you want to be completely honest with yourself.
Not sure about downforce as this sealing pretty effectively to the nose of our cars and making the front bumper effectively lower in relation to the airstream might actually help increase front downforce?
I can tell you my car feels rock solid right up until I bounce off the fuel cutoff which will be remedied later this week with my tuner from AM
Thanks for the props fastforapony she's not done yet updated pics coming soon and possibly a mid-low 13 sec timeslip
