How do you guys like the ground clearance with the SLP Splitters? Are they good in that respect & better than ground effect type stuff? Thinking of buying an SLP Splitter now but just want to get some feedback on these from you guys that have had them on your car for a while.

The clearence is good (I don't have a lowered Camaro). Only thing is they stick out and we must be very careful not to hit a curb or it can shatter. It doesn't hang down much at all (about 3/4"), I can still see the rubber air deflector under my bumper.

If you look at the pics in my first post you will see you will not lose that much ground clearence. I would say maybe a half inch.

it took me about 2 hours. i just taped the splitter into position and drilled my holes.

the hardest part was putting the nut on the screw inside the bumper. my girlfriend had to help because my hands were too big to fit up in there.

With the rear diffuser, wouldnt you have to upgrade the exhaust too? ZL1 has the dual pipes on each side. Might look a bit silly just have 1 pipe there in that larger gap.
