I'll say it again, It looks 100000000x better than it did on any of the Camaro's. From those pictures you can tell than the front splitter needs better shaping to match the front of an LT1 bird though. Like right before the front wheel it should curve out away from the car, not back under it.
To me that is the worst looking thing about it because it doesn't look like it was really made for these cars. Otherwise, it does look decent.

It would look weird (like the side splitter) to just go out to nothing, then people would HAVE to have canards for the front.
This way you can mod in this order and still look good at each step...
Front Splitter
Front Splitter + Canards
Front Splitter + Side Splitters + All Canards
Front Splitter + Side Splitters + All Canards + Fender Guards (mud flaps, coming soon, subtle to match canards, again like the ZL1).

The front splliter stays pretty flush all the way around, but then on the corners it just looks like it should come outward some instead of disappearing under the bumper. If it were to stay more flush it would match the side splliters perfectly.
And, what are canards? I must have read that 3,000 times in this thread and still don't have a clue.

I didn't want to post pics until after Monday (when I have side splitters on, canards powdercoated and on, car cleaned, etc... all for LA Invasion) but you guys have been waiting awhile so AS LONG AS you don't judge the finished LOOK by what you see in raw aluminum I'll keep these pics up...
Here's what the raw prototypes (still need side mounting screw holes) look like...
They will also have three holes to mount for the top part just still working on placement...
You can order them raw like this (cheapest option), powdercoated a black texture (to look like the ABS splitters) by me or I'll have a third option where I ship them straight to Sean (SilverGhost) to be powdered the color of your choice (some body colored pieces would look good
)... Still waiting on pricing though, have to find out how much material will cost (just cut these from scrap).
Here's the front Canard Prototypes on my car...
Since I know some people lack imaginiation I threw some black Gorilla Tape on there just to give you a better visual of the finished product...
I can't wait to get a chance to get it all on
