** Money wont be due till the minimum # is met. If we cant get the minimum # of people ready to order, I wont be able to push this through for you guys/gals. **

Okay...so we have two photo chops on what it could look like. The pre-98 and the post-98 (on I-Dom-In-8's ride).

I like the photochop of the second one much better as it extends up into the slot in the bumper and gives it a nice full appearence, exactly what I am going for.

If it is like the first one then I am not sure. It looks too thin to me.

If it is like the second one, I am in for sure. Any idea if the the post 98 non-svt version will indeed be like the one pictured on I-Dom-In-8's car?

I know it is going to be hard to say. But can anyone help me out a bit. The style will determine if I am in or out.

Well, no one really knows how "thick" or "thin" this is gonna be man, best guess, find a nice pic of an SVT splitter, smooth off the top so it matches the form of our bumpers better and that's probably about how "thick" it will be. I think part of the visual problem you're having is that the pictures are from very different angles, and the chop on I-DOM-IN-8's car is blended in to the car better, plus the fact that it's a darker color. I say if you can afford it for sure, go in on it, I highly doubt you'll be unsatisfied with the result.

I guess I used the wrong terminology.

I am more concerned if it extends up into the air inlet (like the SVT one I think) or if it just bolts around the edging along the bottom.



The way in this picture is what I like. It looks like it would overlap into the air inlet and sort of hang off of it.

One way I am in and the other I am not. Not trying to side track the thread at all and I really appreciate all that is being done to make this happen.

I sent honkytonkmonkey a few more angles of my car. Maybe he'll be a sport and use those to help better the idea...

that is not what i meant when i said i dont know if it will work i ment i dont know if it is going to work that i get in as in money. and btw you cant just crop an svt splitter on a pre 98 because the body lines arent the exact same so it isnt going to look right. I think you need a test bunny to get this done. I will buy one but i think if you have a test bunny you will not have as much chaos in this forum

Well you can put me down as a Maybe/most likely. reason being i have to find out how much lower this will bring the front end down, I have H&Rs and im scared i will rub. Thanks for the Ps mike.
