I finally got a day off work (not on the best circumstances), but since I'm home I'll wash my car up and take some nice pictures.

i just drilled the hole and attached the rod under that part of the bumper. I dont know if that is the correct way, thats why I dont want to write up a DIY. Mine holds fine though. Not a rattle at all. tested over 100 mph. Also my dum tume is right behind it. Sometimes flames shoot out of it, and the splitter shows no signs of being burned or deformed. +1 doc for an awesome product.

Under the car in one of the holes. The stock bolt will be a short one. Replace it with the longer one supplied.


Everything lines up. Its pretty easy install.

I don't want to sound like Mr. Busy-Busy, but I genuinely don't have time to check the forums every day-- but I do have e-mail and IM, folks-- and they go to my computer, my laptop, and my phone. So if you have aquestion about the install, all you have to do is ask.

To answer the last question posted, you absolutely have to take the bumper off th car. You need to drill six holes, and you won't be able to drill any of them while the bumper is attached. I think most of your questions will be answered immediately once you remove your bumper and set it on top of the splitter. The whole thing sort of... falls together, as it were.
