Don't you mean the Camaro splitter?

I love how I can only see ONE picture....but it looks damn good. They come plain, and need prep and paint? You have any idea how much that would cost? If it doesn't come out to like $600 total, I would love to pick one up.

dont think these cars can create that much speed to have it break off.... unless they got over 500 RWHP....

OF COURSE! PM me if you want to do it. I'll cut two for you, a blank one and one with a couple of gauge holes like RK Sport had. You cover shipping here and I'll cover it back.

I'd invest more in it if I didn't think you'd probably be my only customer

I'll try to answer questions....

First of all, this is a TRANS-AM splitter. Basically the same, more pointed in the front (remember when you looked at the one on my car at Carl's? More rounded...) but I might end up just going Camaro splitter modified on them...

Next, it is not going to pull off at high speeds. It would be no different than a normal splitter with those ugly @ss rods (sorry, I don't like them) holding it further down (flatter). Actually, the way I am designing it (with tubes that act as air foils) it will be BETTER than the Camaro splitter...

The Camaro splitter has turned out to be VERY functional for down force (the guy who waterjets them is a professional racer) and if my idea is correct once we get a real one on a Trans-Am you guys should really see some added cooling effects and some extra air flow at high speeds (ESPECIALLY if you have one of those fast toys/slp ram air kits)...

AT MOST the Trans-Am/Firebird/Formula splitter will be $25 more than the Camaro. I'm going to do my best to make it less but worse case scenario I will do a pre-order price of $325, hopefully be ready to take pre-orders after posting some pics up the beginning of next week (have to get some stitches out before I can start crawling under cars again...)...

I doubt it. BUT I have a feeling the LT1 Camaro will. Regardless, I'll be working on your cars next

Pretty well known among my friends that the 1997 WS6 is actually my favorite body style

Oh, forgot your post. You can paint if you want but no one has/does. They come in textured ABS ready to bolt on...

Question: can we check how an LS1 Camaro splitter looks on my car (the Formula)? The one we used at Bob's seemed to be a little weird looking to me on a Formula. Fits great with the lines of the outer fin edges on TA's though!

Zex, definitely...

Also, if you guys like these pics then you will absolutely love the final product... Just don't be a bunch of non-buying beotches like your Camaro brothers

Just kidding, or am I
