Default 6LE splitter pics of pewter Trans Am during mid day...

Well, it was a nice day here today, and I got out of the office early, so I pulled out the t/a to take some afternoon pictures. This was actually the first time I've seen it on the car outside of the garage and not 2+ feet in the air.

This was extended as far as it goes. The other photos I posted were with it pulled back in probably 2/3 of the way.

I think I will get some slightly longer spaces because although the splitter follows the contour of the front bumper, it is higher at the nose than at the wheel arch.

Without further delay, here's the pics:

Let me just thank Mark for pushing to get this done and out the door to me. I really do like the way it finishes off the car and I'm looking forward to taking it for a spin if the weather holds up this weekend.

Is it for everyone, nope, but it's not like it's a huge 4" hood that is in your face. I'm probably going to recess it and see how that looks and go from here.

Thanks again Mark and I wouldn't feel bad if you didn't sell too many more of these.

And if you're wondering why Mark says these are a pain to ship, take a look at how big it is...

Again, I think camaros look like two door versions of the chrysler concords... but everyone has different tastes. I wasn't posting this thread to seek acceptance from you guys. It was a request from some other t/a owners who were on the fence.

It looks great. I love the look of it on the TA.

I also hope, for our sake, that not too many are sold.

I think it looks good.....but.....I don't like how it flips up on the side view, is there a way to make it sit flat?

i think it looks sexy, also lovin' the rims.
One question though, why so much rim and so little rubber, or is it just me?

splitters are truly a waste of money, IMO.

Well, I like the way the 19s look. Considering the new camaro is going to have 18s as an option on the v-6 models, and the v-8 models will go up to 20s, get use to the look of big wheels/small rubber on f-bodies.

Granted, I could go to a slightly taller tire, and modify my speedo calibration, but I like the way it is now. Plus the tires are Michelline Pilot Sports, which I'm not eager to replace anytime soon at $350 / tire.
