Front downforce, staying classy.

I put it on and went for a quick spin and HOLY COW! The front end turns
In SO fast above 70mph it is freighting ! All I can say is WOW. Under hard
breaking from 120 it was scraping the bumpy road surface. This is with a current
3.5 inch lip, it will be reduce to a 3.0 to avoid this. This color is Hard clear anodize.
We also smoothen out the curve on cad for a nicer smoother look. Prototype
Successful! Now on to build the real thing!

Here is a CAD drawing of the final revision of what it will look like from the bottom. We have revised the drawings and made the following changes per our experience.
-Include new stainless hardware to replace bottom facia bolts/ clips. to much stronger ones and longer.
-Made the splitter more round, for a nicer look and more surface area.
-Made the splitter 1/2 wider total.
-Pre cut holes for zip ties to be placed to prevent oscillation of splitter at high speeds. (you can op for studs that can go drilled on your bumper if you prefer a permanent fixture)
-Brackets under the splitter that connect to main support holders of front vehicle to prevent flex at high speeds.
-Cut outs to let high pressure air escape to get air to cooling ducs for the brakes.
-Total weight 8lbs.
-It can be anodized black / gold / hard natural clear (gunmetal like mine).

I think that splitter looks a nicely working aero part. What rear wing would re-balance the aero with that splitter up front?
From the looks of it, it seems it will need something good...
