I'm an obnoxiously particular engineer and I can't say enough about Bryan's work, other than he's underpricing the hell out of them. He uses great materials, doesn't cut any corners, and the final product shows it. Literally everything I've ever bought for any project car has left me disappointed in some way except for this freaking splitter. Here's my install on my APR GT bumper (which, by the way, needed a shit ton of fitting work and still needs to get re-painted by a competent paint shop...)

I am another happy customer of Bryan. His track splitter is second to none in my book and his customer service is excellent.

I'm sure i've whacked a few cones autocrossing with it and you couldn't even tell. I've also accidently lowered my car onto my floor jack and the splitter was inbetween and it didnt even seem to mess it up.

This def looks like a really nice and well thought out splitter. Only thing I would add are these tinnerman washers. The splitter would have to have counter sunk holes drilled to accept the new washers and then new hardware would have to be used as well. Its ideal to not have any exposed bolt heads protruding out from the bottom in an effort to have a nice smooth surface, but mainly exposed bolt heads can can get ripped off and cause splitter damage if someone where to ride over a curb and bottom out. I have seen it happen.

This is a good idea but, to be clear, the drilling of the holes (at least on the new kits with adjustable brackets) is done by the end customer. The back 3 are slotted holes (for front-to-back adjustability) which could be countersunk perhaps, but would be more difficult.

I will look into adding these to my own though

That's what's nice about the Pro-Bolt washers:





I'm using M6 washers and stainless fasteners, with the 22mm washers. I drilled 3/8" holes in the splitter, and the washers allow for a significant amount of misalignment, without compromising clamping. Quite low profile too, <3mm. Also, they look totally baller.
