Just thought I would post a picture of my ACI splitter as it looks now.





Tomorrow mine goes to Pat @ American Hydrocarbons to match my Windshiel Cowl I got from him a month ago when he put them on sale.





I will post pictures when it is returned and on the car.

I like those splitters but one of those would last about 10 minutes on my car.

I like all the CF! Is it all hydrocarbon? The intake cover and other underhood looks pretty real from the photo.

The only Hydrocarbon in the engine bay is the windshield cowl and the Radiator Shroud. I could have purchased a 2 piece Carbon Fiber radiator cover, but it was just that two pieces of carbon fiber held on with double sided tape and only went across the top. At least the radiator shred replaces the factory original.
I could have purchased a true carbon fiber splitter that a forum member is selling, but I already had the ACI splitter and did not want to spend more money on a new splitter.
