Default 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.

I bought my stage 2 setup from C7 Carbon. The fit and finish are good. I would not hesitate to buy from them again.

I also purchased a stage-2 splitter from C7 carbon for my '18 GS. Has been working great so far.

Would you mind posting a picture of your car with the splitter and side skirts?

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.

Yes the install was very easy. Two people makes it easier, I had my wife hold one end while I drilled and installed rivets along the way. You use factory bolts and then have to drill and use either rivets or supplied screws. I also used my 72" race ramps to install both instead of jacking up the car.

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.
