Default Splitter question

How important is the angle on the front splitter? Mine seems that it is slightly tipped up in the front instead of down.

I'm not sure how to answer besides anecdotally. My first iteration of splitter was angled up slightly and it felt like shit on the back straight of road atlanta. The second version was flattened out or even 1-2 degrees nose down and stability came right back. I fixed it by grinding out some of the holes on the devsport brackets.

My thought was it needed to be tilted forwards but I installed it tight to my bumper and realized it after that it was tilted up in the front not down. I guess I’ll have to install longer strut rods

needed to adjust mine too - also got a slight upward tilt to it.

Make sense that it should be angled with the front lower - was also wondering how important this was.
