Default Splitter


Today I managed to hit a curb pulling into a parking spot. I cracked my carbon fiber splitter. Since it was installed when I bought my car I’m not 100% sure what brand it is. Can anyone help me so i can order a new splitter. Thanks

No clue who made that splitter and sorry to hear about the damage. ACS makes some very nice aero pieces as does a number of other forum vendors.

It looks aftermarket since your side winglets don't match your exposed carbon fiber splitter.Now you have to decide.What do I want to match?The CF or Carbon flash painted?
Do you have skirts?What is that finish if you have?
ACS and GM are on the upper price range.I went with JW Motorsports since you found out they will get connected with something,some how.
A expendable item.It happens often.

I do have skirts. They look like the splitter. So I guess I’ll look for a new carbon fiber splitter for now.

That would be hard to tell. C& Carbon does CF over Fiberglass, if you see that , prob them. Beyond that ... take the easy way find one that suits your liking, my suggestion is that you match the stage 3 winglets .. just looks better imo

IIRC, the OEM stage 3 end plates come only in carbon flash.

Bringing this back up cause I didn’t get one bought before winter.

I’m trying to figure out is this a stage 2 splitter with stage 3 winglets or is it a stage 3 splitter?

I think I’ll get all carbon fiber but just want to make sure it matches the side skirts so I really need to match this splitter.

This seems harder than it should be.

The stage 3 splitter is identical to the stage 2, except it has the taller winglets. So stage 2/3 are the same
