    Splitters or no splitters?

    ive had cf splitters before but the fitment was not great and my cf cracked badly...

    i do like the aggressive feel they add to it but if i was to buy splitters again...i want perfect fitment...

    what do you guys think??

    splitters or no splitters?

    To me it depends on what else is done to your car so that it complements it. For a relatively stock car or mildly done up, I vote no splitters...

    I'm not sure I follow, the cf splitters on your car look good... are you just worried about them cracking again?

    CF splitters, your car looks nice.... I remember saving one of your pics before...

    There are some who like cf splitters and then there are some who prefer plastic ones. Since I don't use either all I can add is that if done right, the cf ones do look awesome but need more TLC than the plastic ones do. Looking at my cf lips, they do take a beating and it shows on the clear coat over the cf material. Eventually they will need retreated otherwise they will not look good. only problem with carbon fiber but when fresh, man do they look good
