Received and installed today! They look Great! Love the Jack Pads. Install took like ten minutes, very easy, so now she looks like she's ready to chomp down on anything that gets in her way. Thanks, and the Check is in the Mail, as the saying goes. I highly recommend these washers, and the New Jack Pads. Look great and should do the job! Also at a great price!

whats the point of the center one being black? Also how high are the washers it also seems that you are loweing your ground clearance by having the washers so you will hit them more often than not having any washers at all.

Im thinking the washers had to be shorter/thinner?

If you vehicle is going to rub the short length of the spacers won't cause a problem. I should have taken a pic of the underside of the splitter. I was amazed at the wear damage already done after only 2500 miles. I think he is using a black spacer in the middle to blend in. I got all black and didn't install the center one. I have a high approach driveway and just about always scrape backing out.

The reason I make the center black is because it will be in view easier because it is placed close to the front.

We do not have to make the center black, I was doing that for the customers do not need to have them all black.

maybe I should come out with a pole and see if that is what you all would like.

The washers only add 1/8 extra to the bottom. the OEM screws stick down 1/8 inch. When you use the Splitter Washers they come with screws and the total is 1/4. so the net ground clearance is only 1/8 inch more. That is nothing if you compare what it will do if you scrape the OEM screws off. The splitter washers are only .25 or 1/4in in depth, the screws you remove are over 1/8in in depth.

Not yet, I didn't jack up the car, I just laid on the ground and had more than enough space to do the job. But to install the center washer you have to drill a new hole. There is no OEM screw in the center. So to fit my drill underneath I'd have to jack it up or use my flex drill extension. I can do that at a letter date, I only had 30/40 minutes and also installed my rock/splash guards. Best deal I've seen yet, One-Bad-ZL1, makes a set and they really look good. I'll post a pic tomorrow.

Here's my pic, not that it's any different than anyone else's. Now do I have to bring in a hygienist to keep those teeth clean? Hey, maybe skylane can come out with a set with a fixed screw and a hex nut bottom to tighten and a pointed tooth instead of flat. Haven't had a chance to put in the center black one.
