That does look good. And good call on not painting the splitter. I just had the Stillen splitter and side skirts painted and installed and there were issues with pin holes in the pieces, especially the splitter. As soon as sealer was applied the pieces looked like foam rubber and had to be filled and sanded multiple times to get them to look right. Even after topcoat there were a few that had to be addressed. Don't know if they're all like that or it was just the kit I got was worse. Luckily my install/paint guy is obsessive and he made it look right. Anyone planning to buy this kit beware that you might have the same issues. What was to be a 3 day paint/install ended up taking 8 days, and the install price reflected it.

Ouch, sounds very painful :( Do you think its possible the sealer that was used wasn't compatible with the urethane? I know that there are different products made for different surface materials, and using the wrong one would absolutely cause the problems you saw with yours.

I am looking forward to not having to repair the splitter after every few minor pavement scrapes like I did with the fiberglass ACS splitter.

There is always the chance of that. The guy that did it has a custom paint shop and he has done a lot of this type of work so I'd hope he wasn't hood-winked by something like that. But you never know. I've been going to him for the past couple of years and have never had any other issues. I've had my share of front underside scrapes and wheel curbings as well. After just spending $4k on wheels and GFX I hope I've learned how long and wide this car really is.

Definitely looks amazing, I want the havoc rockers. Just flows with the car and gives it a OEM look, similiar to the ZL-1.
