If it was a tiny bit smaller it would look better IMO looks great either way!

i think its one of the biggest ive seen, but im sure a few of those track boys would love it to match their GTC XXX wings and J's Wings. Help balance out the down force and such, i like it

The rods came out better than I thought. I usually hate seeing those rods. Functionally they are good but visually the car usually looks better without them.

I still think it needs to be trimmed back an inch or so.

Where do the other ends of your rod go? They don't seem far enough out on the splitter to hold it up, and they look to be attached to the bumper.

we made a support rod that is connected the the bracing that they connect to...if you put the rods directly to the bumper its really pointless bec if you hit something all it will do is pull through the plastic and youll have 2 huge holes in the bumper. Rods are 11 inches btw. huge difference. the splitter held 150 pounds

The bumper is metal, the bumper cover is the plastic painted piece. Re-read what I wrote.
