What's the purpose of having a front splitter?
An automotive splitter is a modification typically found at the front of the car, containing a protruding flat surface acting as a firm extension of the front bumper. There are many different configurations as far as their aesthetic, and utilized material. The design and purpose is aimed at decreasing front end lift, which would equate to numerous performance benefits. When a car reaches higher speeds, it will accumulate air pressure build up at the front of the vehicle. All of this air will end up going both above the car, as well as below the car (under the front bumper). When excess amounts of this air builds up, the under-car air pressures builds up. This increased air pressure contributes to lift, which causes the front end of the vehicle to lift up. This results in decreased traction on the road & a compromised handling characteristic. The key to alleviate this, is creating positive downforce. The splitter forces the high pressure air upwards where it builds up around the bumper, and ultimately migrates this pressure over the car resulting in reduced lift. The splitter is typically supported by rods to ensure that the splitter stays parallel to the ground, rods will also assist with the outside forces and elements endangering the integrity of the splitter.
Customer Reviews
Very high quality product at a very reasonable price. I would suggest buying a few more nuts, bolts, and washers to really secure this to your bumper, because it does have some weight to it. I used the cardboard shipping packaging to outline and cut out a template that I then used to align the splitter with the bumper, and mark specific measurements for drilling both new and existing holes into the splitter as well as the bumper. Take your time installing, this is a huge aestetic mod to your 335 that you want to get right the first time.
Tracked it at Sonoma race track and was perfect for the money. Just strong enough to handle track days.
