I just got one from AIR too and mine doesn't have that lip where it attaches to the bottom of the nose. I'd post pics but it's in Cinci right now awaiting paint.

Just a side note, mine was damaged during delivery. It's repairable but it ticked me off. The guy at AIR said "We ship 'em like that all the time and they never get damaged". Yeah, right. Some styrofoam peanuts would have saved me a lot of aggravation.

Mine was also $256 shipped. Mention Rennlist for 20% off.

If either of those are AIR pieces then the company has changed the splitter at some point in time. I just received mine this week and painted and installed it, and it doesn't look like either the one on Streckfu's car, or the pic of the one on the floor. There are differences where the splitter rides along the side of the bumper, and the flat area in the back extends further. If I had a digital camera I would post pics. Mine is like Brian Perry's, i.e. it extends in a straight line from the corner of the bumper forward.
The one on the floor is the same one that's on the car. The floor pics were taken before the paint and mounting.

I have to agree with Sam. My AIR splitter doesn't look anything like the one Strek'fu has on his car.

Does it say AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL RACING on the inside of the splitter? Mine does....

I don't remember seeing it.

The only reason I called it a piece from AIR is because that's what I was told. It's a used piece that came on the car the PO bought. I don't kno what it is.

Originally, those that replied to my original post asking what kind it was overwhelmingly called it an AIR splitter.

Could it be one from GT?

Either way, I still like. Works good for $100. I can fix the minor fitment issue.

Wow... take the evening off from the list and the PI's come out to play! Great job guys... lovin the pics too!

Daniel.. your car is slick! The GT splitter on a dark car looks nice because the sides are not as noticible. On the light colors, they look out of place. Nice work... you got some more pics?

Not right now. There will be more to follow.

Good night all. I can sleep now that Tampa won the first game of the playoffs.
