Splitter Recommendations?
I want to upgrade my 2017 GS front splitter from the OEM stage 1 to a carbon flash stage 3 but am confused with the wide variety and price range of what is available. I'm concerned about the quality and the fit. Please comment on what brand you've upgraded with, its quality of construction and how well it fit during installation.
Thank you for comments and assistance.

Looks very nice I would be more than happy with those. Did you install yourself? I have a lift in my garage which at first I'm thinking that makes life a lot easier for the install but actually the lift arms might be in the way installing the side skirts. I wouldn't know until I'm into the install.

No I didn't go for the stage 2 sides. It wasn't anything I felt I wanted. I really don't like the look of the stage 3 sides but all that stuff is personal taste. Had I wanted the stage 2 sides they offer a pkg that includes the side skirts and stage 2 splitter in carbon flash for 589.98

Regardless of splitter option you choose, make sure your service garage can get the cat on an alignment rack.
My stock GS with Ground Effects Package is lower than the Rack Saftey Stops. Can get very expensive or risk a good mechanic shop relationship.
