Good thing is if the mounting tab for the fender is bent (like most are from idiots jacking it wrong) the side splitters will hold it in place (as long as you have it pushed in place when you drill the holes for them)

IMHO I would love to see the side splitter about a 1/4 of an inch thicker at least.

How very true............although I really did not notice the waves on my SS
When I mounted the canards it drew everthing together and really tightened everything up.
At the last car show I was at, another Camaro owner said he wished he would of known about the "aero package" option when he ordered his Camaro new from the dealer...............

hates me now more than before, flexplate not cracked, all hardware good, starter good, Converter out opened inspected and restalled by Circle D. Something is making a noise but nothing there!? gonna pick the TC up today, put it all back together and hope for the best.

But, because God hates me, my new ARP flexplate hardware wont be here till next week.

Car looks ****** Amazing with the Splitters and Canards on it but it hasent left my garage since i put em on....... this sucks. And theres a big cruise this weekend thats going all over town i was hoping to show off at, which i will now miss.
