what kind of splitter? if stillen, you have to change with bigger screw and drill ur bumper on the side and on the middle. and tell them that the splitter went off the car and they will give you a discount for the next purchase.

This is the reason I don't trust anything that attaches to the front of the car using only 3M backed adhesive tape. I installed a GM GFX front splitter on mine which you have to drill holes on your bumper to secure, a bit of a pain but i know it's not going anywhere!

It would be the T5 for the V6 Camaro, but yes the ACS splitters and rockers attach pretty damn solidly.
