VAVolvo Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 This post can also go into preformance mods, but I figured splitters where cosmetic as well.Do you know where I can find splitters for an 850, without the 'R' style front bumper? I fould a couple sites in uk that does em:body-kits.co.ukRGM stylingI wasn't sure if any companys that are in the US, or are commonly known do them.Would front splitters give me more control at higher speeds? Today, I was going across this bridge (Varina-Enon bridge on I-295 for those of you who know) and it's windy as all get out. I was traveling 100mph at the time and nearly lost control (the only reason I did that is becasue I knew I could get away with it). Just curious.~PEACE!

The Stig Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 Have you guys thought about this:Buying a DTM splitter, as shown here:And then having Mark do it in Carbon Fibre? I think it would look amazing. And it has more depth that just a flat piece of CF when viewed head on. Don't get me wrong, I love the look of Will's piece. This would just make a nice alternative.

VAVolvo Posted December 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 Man, they have some nice stuff on Gemini...but I didn't like the spitters they had showing on their site. Will's spittlers are nice though. Once again, Will's car inspires me. I saw a picture of his engine two months ago before I didn't anything to mine, now (besides the CF everything and I have a red OMP strut brace) my engine is identical. PEACE!

We need to have a splitter/lip/valence/whatever that mounts to the NON R bumper, both for our 854/855 friends and us S/V/C 70 people. So speak up! We need to convince people (ie Mark @ gemini) that there is a demand! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veneficus Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 It really is too bad that the dtm only fits the R's. However it does look pretty nice. I wonder if they could make one that would fit the standard bumper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
