Ok I have already picked out the wheels and exhaust system I am going to adorn my TL with and I am still up in the air between the RJ Body kit and the A-Spec but I really want a CF front air dam splitter like that which was offered for the E-36 M3 Lightweight.

Does anyone know where or rather if one is available for the 3G-TL???

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
A

 

In addition where are all of you getting all of your aftermarket goodies from??? I know I want the EVO2 Greddy exhaust, but am looking for a vendor.

A lot of aerodynamic mods will have to be custom. There's little to no options for any aftermarket off the shelf modifications.

Check into a VIS Racing or APR Performance universal splitter. ~$300.

 

ACCURATEin, Do you have a link for the VIS CF Splitter???

Thanks in advance,
A

 

did you have to custom any of the fitting for the VISracing 2piece CF splitter .. or was it just buy it and put it on ?

thanks im really looking into whether to pick the one piece or 2-piece... any advice/suggestion ?

 

Just buy a universal splitter it doesn't matter which brand. Make it two piece however you wish to make it work.

 

ACCURATEin, question for you since your message box is STILL full... or anyone else that knows about the VISracing 2piece CF splitter.... How much is the piece, Will it fit my 07 TL stock bumper, and any mods needed or just bolt on?

 

Wonder if it will fit with the aspec kit for the tlS

 

yea i got an a-spec kit also... wondering if that little buldge/curve at the bottom will effect the fitting ...

willing to chime in accuratein

 

Pretty much any "splitter" is a custom or universal part. They don't really connect directly to the bumper as it's a true aero part. They typically extend well rearward of the front bumper underneath and bolt directly to the chassis at the back (at or past the engine). Then they use little adjustable turnbuckles to hang the front lip below and in front of the bumper. The turnbuckles are then attached to custom brackets on the chassis that stick through the front grill of the car. The front turn buckles are adjustable-length, and the rear is hinged, so you can adjust the amount of rake on the splitter. This adjusts the amount of down-force on the front end of the car...

 

Yep...
attaching a splitter to anything other than the chassis is just another poser show part, as it's design to create downforce in the front... and you can't creat downforce by attaching something to a flexible urethane bumper.

 

you got any close up's of your splitter i just wanted to see how it'd curves up the bumper to see if my a-spec will get in the way/make it look funny? and some pics of where you screwed it too...i would really like to tackle this and follow in your footsteps..

 

some of ACCURATEin's pics before he got the versus front bumper

 

oh he got the 2 piece splitter, i thought it was a two piece

 

^^^ i mean he has a one-piece splitter

because all of the ones i've seen look like this



or the 2-piece like this

 

Any pics of how it looks from the front??

Will this 1 piece fit my car??

 

thats looks relly nice ^^^ did you call them to see how much it was.. ithink thats the same one taht accuratein has, if im not mistaken

 

Or you can do something like this.

 

do you have a thread on how you did that ? looks like you modified the a-spec kit somehow

 

I had it custom made that fitted onto the unpainted lip of the A-Spec kit. I also made the rear diffuser in CF as well.

 

wow i give you props,, for doing all of these little tiny mods that i had no idea you had done to your car...


its the little stuff that really make your car unique !!!

 

just curious, why didn't you want to buy the splitters (1 or 2 piece) that you see in this thread ?

 

I didnt want any add on universal pieces. It is only PERSONAL preference, but I like to make things seamlessly yet cost a little more but something different and unique. IF I were to get the splitters, I would make it so it will flow in with the car.

 

yea thats what i was thinking, i saw some applications of these and they just kinda look like there just there and look kinda goofy to me
