I will, as soon as I get it back, I had to return it, the bottom was warped and wouldn't align with the spliter anymore. That's what I get trying to make my daily driver a track car....

Warped? My ACP nose was real flexable, about 5 lbs LESS then the OEM.
I ( or the Body Shop) just put the nose on, then they ( with my input ) pop riveted the overlay splitter on.
I also have a front flat diffuser under neath.
Wait, did you say Track car? do you have a 1" rear spoiler that points UP at 45* angle? if not, you will have too much down force on that splitter.
also what suspension are you running??? I have a T1 and some times that is not stiff enough with the downforce
Now the bad news. You will loose top end speed do to the extra down force. I lost 4 mph at 4th gear red line. But gained 7-10 mph on high speed sweeping corners.

I have the Pfadt coilovers on, and I intend to install a APR wing. My problem is to be able to keep a streetable car, the spliter as a permanente part, wouldn't clear any street in my area. Do you have pics of you diffuser?
