Yesterday the splitter actually went into the bar with me and picked up chicks... but then they all went home with the splitter and left me in the cold. the canards came from behind and joined in. I had to watch this in my driveway from my window and a bottle of lotion. I hate you 6LE package!

An effective front airdam could easily be made of layed fiberglass. Make a few of them too. Because you KNOW it ain't gonna stay attached to the car during normal street driving over potholes, dips, and speed bumps.
Thier effectiveness/cost/stay-in-the-fight ratio probably dictated the use of the splitters that GM opted to put on our cars. If you want better, you have to pay to play. That kinda goes without saying.

^^Yesterday I would have said without a doubt yes. Had an issue with a vendor that stressed me out quite a bit (not to mention on going with a couple others).

Today I'm looking more at restructuring. Less projects, more meat and potatoes.

Only thing I can tell you for sure is I am paid up through September on here. WORST case scenario when that 1/4 is over I am out and keep the site up long enough just so anyone who had just bought anything still has somewhere to turn for help but probably not a site you can buy off of...

Best case scenario I find a way to balance everything (not offering certain items to cut down on my stress or making it more clear to people ordering EVERYTHING is hand made and this is not Summit so the part won't be at your door the same day) and at least hit the one year mark

I do have one set of side splitters AND a full set of canards ready to ship though. After that set it would be at least a month wait (at this point) to get a set made due to vacations...

I never posted a price or put these on my site because, for now, I'm making them a limited number so I can keep a registry for this mod (since anyone who gets these has everything else to make it a 6LE Package)...

Normal price side splitters $275 shipped

Normal price set of four canards $250 shipped

Package deal to clear my inventory $450... I only have ONE SET available though and that is the truth...

Keep in mind that when I finally find the low mileage '97 Bright Purple Metallic Z28 I'm going to eventually find in the next 10 years, you're going to get a PM from me saying "hey... remember me? I NEED that purple gauge overlay I didn't want to buy ahead of time in case I couldn't find a car to put it in... and um... ... ... help!"
