yeah thats understandable, and your car is rather nice and more show car. but putting then on a more stock car doesnt look right to me.

alot of the newer cars coming out don't need an air splitter to provide sufficient downforce/flow. The plastic shielding under modern cars isnt just a splash guard to keep the engine bay pretty, it helps guide the air under the car, which in turn, helps "pull" the car down by creating a kind of vaccum. Typically a rear diffuser will help funnel this airflow more efficiently and provide added downforce.

If you are looking for styling purposes, don't.

i had a carbon fiber one on my cavalier and it worked great it was a whole big piece that came with the mounts and you mounted it to the front bumper and used sheetmetal screws on the sides did what it was suppose to do looked good and kept my bumper from getting broken and scraped up

It fits great. They even give you the nylon breakaway bolts in case you really get off the track.

You guys realize a splitter isn't really gonna do much 6" off the ground right? I do wish someone made a nice 2" front lip though.

Can you post a pic of how it looks/fits on your car? Did you remove the stock lip?
