I just now discovered this thread so I am a little behind and may be too late to the game. I will go ahead and put my two cents in though.
The one thing I dislike about most front splitters I have seen for the C5 is they don't cover the curve under of the nose. It results in looking like you just stuck something on the bottom of the front bumper cover. That is the reason I have yet to buy a front splitter. The one I sort of like is the C7Carbon NON-Vented front splitter but it doesn't have the hole in the middle and blocks airflow, It does cover most of the roll under of the bumper cover all the way across and looks better than most others out there to me. It would be nice if you could somehow cover far enough up and include a piece that goes all the way across the top above the center hole to cover the roll. I realize this may be a challenge because of airflow but it would look a lot better to me. I would even be willing to cut the front bumper cover out to accommodate for a continuous top if it needed to notch into the bumper cover. I think there is a picture or two some others have posted of something similar where the bumper cover had to be notched. Anything to get rid of the rolled under nose would suit me better.

love this! like the way the opening tilts toward the middle at the top. Would work well as a bases for track guys to open up the stock bumper a bit and even ad splitter length with full under tray.

Call me impressed! Really like the design and the way it stays on the leading edge of the bumper but comes out far enough to be functional and looks aggressive. What will the price be?
