^^I agree and have a design made but working on making it cheaper. If people are cool with making one bend themselves (basically bolt the bottom on to the splitter and then bend straight up to meet the car) they can be made relatively cheap.

Looking into getting a batch powdercoated in textured black to match the ABS (canards will be aluminum)...

Im pretty sure the zr1 is more of a side skirt then a splitter, I was right next to one a few months back but I could be wrong

Similar to Canards, a Gourney Flap hangs down below the car like an inch to inch and a half. they help to push air around the tire instead of under and help with traction at 100+ mph. Any chance they could be incorporated on these?

If i havent explained them well enough then look at a Mazdaspeed 6, Maxdaspeed 3, or RX-8. that where i learned about em.

How do these fit if you have SFC's that are boxed hanging down, does it get in the way? How does it mount to the bottom?

For 525$ I am almost positive I will order the whole set when I see some more pics of the sides. Just finishing up paying for my expensive *** tires for my wheels(few weeks), and I'm sure canards and everything will be done by then. Very unique mod, and should go well with my set up.
