Splitter



Installing a front splitter which requires additional bodywork. To maintain proper orientation between splitter and track surface this gap must be filled. I recall seeing someone or some company that did this but can not find locate any information on this.

I've been through the standard suppliers (gt and broadfoot) of aftermarket body parts and have come up empty

Any suggestions?

Making the facia myself isn't a problem I but I would rather not have to go through the trouble.

Robert

I'd use rubber lawn edging from the local hardware store.

Conveyer belt material is an option as well

Search around online for either a local industrial supply company or for the material itself. You don't need very much.

Found this post that might be helpful:

No worries Semrad. Looks to me to be a good modular system and I've dealt with Scott in the past. Good (no pun) guy. :-)
