both sides) I did not like that set up so I drilled holes on the
underside of the bumper. Your bumper down low has alot of give in
it. Those that have taken their front bumper off know what I am
talking about. It is more like a cover. Finding a place that is rigid
for the support rods is a challenge.

You know I forgot to mention that the front, rear spoilers and skirts are
carbon. And my top is carbon too. And the air plate on the front.
It looks better in person.

How far does that front splitter cover on the nose underneath? Does it obstruct air flow into the radiator area? Did you remover the wind deflectors (black rubber and plastic pieces) in the front? Does it seem to have had any effect on engine temps? LOVE THE WAY YOUR VETTE LOOKS!!!

I brought the splitter out so that the intercooler was not covered up.
The instructions say to leave them on. I did not like the look and so I
took off the 2 side deflectors. I left the center one on. I have done
alot of thinking about how to stay cool with a blower. I have never
had a issue with heat. I live in Florida and have the AC on 1/2 the
year.Hey, thanks for accolades.

Since you asked, the side skirts look very good, but I'm not sold on the front splitter. Seems like (from the pic anyway) that it sits out too far and I do not like the support arms that attach to the front fascia. Just a personal preference though. Good looking car you have, that's for sure.

finally put it on. The stupid part is most folks really like the spoiler and
I get plenty of compliments. And I am still not hooked up to the spoiler.
