ACI Install Stage I
Got the big brown box today!
No damage! Whew! Lined up and ready to drill some holes. Got the brackets mounted in about 2 hours, pretty simple actually. Next step is to take it up to the barn and get it sanded and primed, then off to the paint shop for some super sexy yellow. Hope to have it on the car by the 9th. More pics to come, stay tuned.

Looking good Munch! Probably the best looking splitter for the stock facia there is.
I gotta pull mine off and re-paint it. Scraped the hell out the bottom Saturday. Plus its got plenty of rock chips .

I have a Caravaggio rear spoiler tucked away at the Barn that will most likely go back on once the splitter is on. Other than that I have a couple small things planned but nothing major.

That is one mod that is always on my mind. I already have a kit picked out I think but I just need to get the $$ for it. Maybe this summer I can swing it.

Those are great mods the front spliter and rear spoiler, those mods would have gotten me more MPH at the Mile, I am really looking forward to painted pictures on the ACI as I may do this to run the Mile faster

If your car sits as low as mine, you'll find the splitter is quite good at scooping up gravel when pulling into the driveway at the barn. |

Looking good. Have you got a price on the painting yet. I plan on ordering mine in a few more weeks. I have not priced any paint work yet.

I scooped up a splitter full of gravel pulling into a gas station Saturday. Should have watched the angle a little better.

It was $390 shipped.
No price yet, plan on talking to the painter in the next couple days.

Are you also going to paint the rear spoiler at the same time?

Match it in sunlight, easy. Match it in shade or overcast, can be done. Match it in artificial (indoor) light, difficult. Matching it under all three of those conditions, nearly impossible. |
