Default Stage 2 Splitter Ground Clearance?

Has anyone measured the ground clearance with the OEM Stage 2 front splitter installed? Anyone know the difference in ground clearance compared to the Stage 1 splitter?

Do not have exact measurement on Stage 2, but Stage 1 splitter clearance is 6 inches on stock Stingray. May be lower depending on the suspension.
The Stage 2 splitter should be close to the same, but remember that the more it extends ahead of the wheels, the more likely to drag, even with the same vertical clearance.

Thanks. I really like the Stage 2 ground effects package, thinking carbon flash, but my last splitter experience on a lowered C5 didn't end well.

My Stage 2 is 5.75" to the bottom of the splitter, stock factory ride height.
