I made this splitter for autocross. I can take it off and put it in my trunk for the ride to the track and back.

The hood is made by ACP products.

is that really going to make a difference at autocross speeds?
as for the looks, to each his own.

The wing I have made so much difference at autocross speeds, I needed to balance it out with a splitter. Will it make as much downforce as the wing? No, but if it can produce any downforce, then it was worth it. Every top time car has a wing and splitter in autocross. My car is not built for looks like yours. In fact, if I wanted a car for looks, I would make it look like yours. But speed is what I want more.

fair enough, happy racing!
I was mostly just curious from an engineering standpoint - good to hear that you have already experimented with the wing and i'm glad it worked out well for you!
I'd like to think my car is built for a little bit of both, haha!

Your car is both, that's for sure. I got bored one day and decided to go crazy and rip my car all apart. If it didn't make the car go fast, I took it out or replaced it. If I could afford it, I would have flair fenders like you do. My tires front and back stick outside the fenders. Kind of ugly, but I don't want to spend money on parts that are for looks. It all goes for maintenance, tires, entry fees, etc. I posted shots of my wing, but the guys on this forum couldn't handle the looks, so I pulled the thread. Here is two secret shots.
