Carbon fiber front splitter installed
hey everyone, just picked up my Z06 after having a bunch of mods installed. I mainly wanted to show you the carbon fiber front splitter. I know, these are not very detailed pics off it, but you'll get an impression. 
It's made out of real carbon fiber and weighs next to nothing. The cars nose feels more planted now at higher autobahn speeds here in germany.

Glad to hear it’s actually functional.

Thanks for the nice comments guys.
The splitter was built on order by a shop here in germany which is also specialized for carbon fiber prototype parts.
If you’re interested, I will post more close up pics of the splitter in the next days.
As for the brakes, they are Movit 6 Piston brakes. They will clear the stock speedline wheels.
I will also have the 4 Piston Kit for the rear installed in the following weeks.
Here are some older shots of them, for those of you that wanted to see a better pic of them.

Yes.
I have scooped up a dead possum with my splitter.
that was nasty to get off.
Only have 3 1/2" of ground clearance to the bottom of the splitter.
Splitters do look cool, but for normal street driving, not any more
