Default Front splitter on 4th Gens

I just need to vent about how this is very little options for front splitter on 4th gen F-Body's, I know that Magg Performance has some but no carbon fiber available and there just straight pieces no lips on the ends. If you look at the 5th and 6th gen Camaros there are many different ones and CF.
I you know of and CF ones please share.

Thanks
GM DR

Get some cardboard and some carbon fiber vinyl wrap, done.

Sincerely, someone who doesn't personally care for "splitters"

93-97 splitters just suck! The 98-02 cars have a cool one or 2 here or there, I had one from Ikon. I've also seen someone make a 98-02 splitter fit the 93-97 and it was pretty cool.
From another who has no care for splitters😁

I don't want to start a splitter argument but, do they actually provide a advantage on the f body?? I'm not a aerodynamic engineer but I could see how it would help on a say more blunt nose car like Camaro/Challenger. What I'm asking is can any one "feel" the difference on a f body. Just curious

Pretty much for looks. Not large enough to produce downforce.

If it is all for looks, why bother with CF, if you are serious about downforce, none of the options out there are functional.

I run up and over 160mph on track and our cars get really unstable above 140mph so I ended up designing my own. Lots asked if I would build them, but it would cast me upwards of $1600 or more with no profit or shipping. I have a good job so I am not going to **** time away on it. I might upgrade mine to CF, currently an aluminum plastic laminate. Just pointing out these plastic cutouts are in no way a functional splitter, especially if you notice near the wheel well they sit 4 inches lower that the front edge, they should be flat to the ground or slightly lower in the front. The lower chin spoiler is gone and now smooth, all cooling air goes in below the lic plate, the visible opening, and to make it more effective I have added vents on the hood so the air goes over the car. Plus no one hole drilled in the bumper cover, all mount goes back to the bumper mounts on the frame.
