Has anyone looked at the version 2 of the Stillen front spoiler?

Problem solved. I put 3 bolts/nuts (middle section) and 2 screws on the ends. Looks and feels pretty secure.

I did the same thing, two flat sunken allen head bolts painted the same color as the splitter, looks pretty cool actually.

Never buying one of these again BTW.

I had mine on pretty solid using the 3 bolts and two screws method mentioned above.

However, I went on a trip and left my car in the garage for 2 weeks during 90 - 100 weather. When I got home both ends of the splitter on each side had warped downwards.

I took off the splitter and laid it on the ground and it can no longer sit flat. I would have to use a heat gun to get its shape back.

I'm thinking I will just take a hammer to it and toss it in the trash.

Actually right at the tip of the spoiler the thickness is larger so i just put the two screws there, from the inside of the wheel well. So there are no bolts/screws showing at all. But I am having some issues with the paint bubbling now. That spoiler is not a good one. I would not recomend it.

I had a similar problem with it not holding at the same areas, took it back and my car shop guy used bonding epoxy and some screws and not an issue since

jlugo · 09-28-2011, 01:38 PM

Yep, is it still holding good!!!

"But"... I had a little incident with a dead Raccoon.

I had lots of problems with mine too. I fixed it by getting an ACS T3. Costs more but comes ready to paint and install method is much better. 9 plastic scrivets like the ones holding the fascia on and a bolt into a speed clip at each end.

krauser1980 · 10-11-2011, 10:47 AM

Thanks for the heads up mclark. Has anybody had any expereince with version 2 of the stillen splitter?

jlugo · 11-01-2011, 10:57 PM

I got tired of people telling me that they can't fix it...

So I decided it to do it "myself"

'after some sanding and 3 coats of paint'...
