Default want pics of front splitter on T/A

I'm looking to put either a splitter or an air dam on the nose of my T/A. I've seen the air dam in pics that I believe wings west makes, but I wanted to see more pics of the splitter 6LITEREATER sells on a T/A. Thanks.

I'm not sure, but I think I might have the only one on a NBM Firebird/Formula/TA:

Not a fan of the splitter look and personally I'd take it clean off the first time I pulled into a driveway.

i like the splitter exactly as it is. if i were to get it now, i'd get it with the beveled edges too. (wasnt an option when i got it).

theres only one issue with the splitter. if you have tires/rims bigger than stock, you're going to have issues with setting the splitter as close to the car as is possible. the way its made you have 1 1/2" room to push it close to the car, or pull it all the way out (like mine in pics), when it is all the way out, the edges end flush with the wheel well, so if you push it in, it moves into the wheel well and will interfere with the tires when you turn the steering wheel all the way. so if you want to be able to set it further back, you'll need to trim it back an inch and a half (unless 6LE has made changes to it).

Krimson/Crimson..whatever your name is...if you had different wheels I would ******* steal your car right now, place it in a secret garage....possibly the same garage that the drivers of "Getaway in Stockholm" use, and stash it there, so that my eyes can stay fixated on it for the rest of mine and its life.
