That is one of the big advantages of the two piece splitter. Leave the blade off for daily driving and it looks similar to a factory piece with same if not more ground clearance. Then in two minutes attach the blade with the dzus and you're ready for the track.
this info only serves to further my embarrassment due to my earlier criticism of your fine work.

I'm in for one and a set of canards as soon as I recover from my 14k I just spent on my transmission they look great and very functional

First time out with he splitter, I have to say: I absolutely felt the difference in high(er) speed corners. Lots of front grip that I didn't remember being there
On the topic of deflection -- I hit 135 on the main straight at Thill a few times and observed no issues. No GoPro at the time, but I'm going to hook some up and do a higher speed run. I had my Dad watch as I went down and he said it didn't look like the blade was deforming, either.
I ordered the canards as well... i'm sure I will get made fun of for running them on the street, but anything i can do to create some more front traction, i'm in for it.
Moved out to west coast and tried out the Dive planes at thunderhill last week.
I ended up losing one of my splitters to an...ahem.. "off roading experience"... but it caused zero damage to the car or mount points/etc. Just as designed, the fiberglass gave up before the fasteners to body did. A+ again Joe.
Here's some pics of the new Dive planes. I only attached them with 3M tape. Held up at many 135mph runs no problem. I didn't go past that due to losing a few of the Dzus fasteners holding on the backup splitter.
Car no doubt has more front end grip in mid/high speed corners, but these aren't my home tracks so I can't really say I got "x MPH from the splitter / planes".
I think that aftermarket GT2 bumper is the same one I have, the stock OEM front lip does not fit properly. Will send you a message on your facebook page to discuss.
I now have a distributor in the UK. Please contact Ryan at Garage Midnight. We will be shipping larger quantities of parts thus drastically reducing the per part shipping costs and making the pieces affordable. Thanks Joe
