Default New Splitter & Skirts

First let me say thank you to Ben at WeaponX for the Splitter & Skirts he sold me. I must say that the way they package them up is very impressive. They are about as well protected as I could hope for, and arrived in great shape.

It took me a little while, between other hobbies, but I Finally got them painted and them installed everything today, along with the GM splash guards. I am quite happy with how it turned out.

Let me know what you think:

Wow! Your car looks great! I love the exterior color and the way you integrated it with the splitter and side skirts! Congrats!

Beautiful, the Stingray looks great.

You guys and your splitters...I had myself convinced I do not need them myself....all the recent posts are telling me to get my own!

Thanks for the pics and again looks great. You nailed the overall look.

Congratulations.

Thanks everyone.

After getting them installed, pulling out of my driveway the first time was a little nerve racking. I was not 100% sure I would clear the curb. The standard GM splitter I had on previously would scrape on occasion, if I did not cut the angle enough, or came down too fast. Turns out, I have about an extra 1/8-3/16 inch clearance with the new splitter. I may not have to raise the car.

I really like the edges painted body color. I may need to do that myself.
