Default For those who said you can't --you really can

For the neh sayers who said you can't run a vinyl bra with a splitter please witness the following pics. These pics were taken at approx 400 and 600 miles from the starting point with average speeds of 70-85 mph.

I'd like to know as well. Also, I would assume that the three snaps you install that keep the front underside of the bra secure are not covered by the splitter.

Nice Car, Can you please tell me if your splitter made a difference in the car running hotter or not. Any regrets with the splitter and side skirts. I would like to have them put them on my car at Carlise this year. Thanks

The bra was purchased several years ago and is mid-america's brand. There are no snaps 3 hooks in each front bumper(inner fender) 2 straps which I removed, and 2 nylon cords on each side of the lower area which I used a bungee cord to keep lower secured back ( I believe this was probably unnecessary)

No heat issues what so ever. Realize you will scrape, these are more durable than I ever thought they would be. If you like them go for it.
