Aeroflow Dynamics gloss black front splitter

Placed an order for the Aeroflow Dynamics gloss black abs front splitter that was shown in another thread.

$199 plus free shipping. Ordered on Monday and it arrived in TX today via UPS. It comes in three sections, and each packaged nicely in plastic and then a fabric bag. Right off the bat, the quality feels 100% better than the Maxton pieces I previously ordered. The Maxton pieces were very flimsy, this splitter feels much more solid. The painted finish is also better than that on the Maxton pieces as well.

I'm going to take it to my Xpel shop to get ppf'd & will then install. At this point I'm very happy with this purchase & hope these guys come out with some matching side skirts.

Will post more pics once installed.

Following closely!

PS - I think we still have a trade to make, if you’re still interested.

Here it is installed. Couple tips/suggestions:

1. Remove the pre-attached double-sided tape & replace with thinner 3M vhb tape.

2. Test fit to see where to place the double-sided tape. The pre-attached tape was too close to the edge and would stick out/be noticeable when installed.

3. Make sure it's lined up before installing self-tapping screws. There are indentations on the underside where to install the screws.

Overall extremely happy with this front splitter for only $199. Dropping the car off at Xpel on Monday (they wanted it installed prior to ppf).

Stock ride height the splitter is about 6" off the ground

If you're installing by yourself, I installed each side section then connected the middle section to them.

That looks great! I will definitely consider one whenever my Maxton inevitably bites the dust. Is there a seam where the three parts meet, and is it noticeable?

There is a seam, if you zoom in on the pics you can see it. I don't think it's that noticeable. The expensive TRE splitters are also 3-pieces and have the same seams, fwiw.

Really looks good. Can you give us a head-on shot? Anyone know if the top of the splitter will sit flush if you have a Mishi plate? Thanks.

It attaches to the bolts in front of where the mishimoto plate installs, so I don't see any issues.

Here's a few more pics. Took the car to Xpel today to get the splitter ppf'd. They were impressed & couldn't believe it was only $200. Imo, it's one of the best-looking currently available, and for the price just can't be beat

Not that I've seen on their website. I sent them an email inquiry but have not heard back.

i like how it doesn’t add too much to the front making undriveable. i am pretty low on ast HAS but really want some type of front lip to complete the front

izzyM2 may know or share some info - he seems to know them well and mentioned in his own install thread that they are planning more designs.
