Default What is the best splitter out there for an 87 turbo?

I've been in the market to get a front splitter/batwing/ V1 splitter ect..., something for the 87 turbo body. Is anyone selling any good quality splitters or are there any group buys started? I found one on ebay but there is no name brand on it so I was hesitent to buy...any leads would be fantastic!

Thank you,
Gerard

You need to get together with Curt P and have him sort out your headlights for you.. he is **** enough to get it right, and works for beer!

Just dont ask him about a purple jelly *****... no matter what dont ask him about a purple jelly *****..

BTW he lives in VA beach!

Ya i found out Curt lives like 4 miles from me or something like that.. I've wanted to stop by his house and check out the 951 but haven't had much time. I'll plan on giving him a chat about it... I'll buy him the high quality beer lol maybe that will work on him

If he doesn't I do!

Come on up, I'll have you fixed up in a jiffy! FWIW I also like to do my water pump and rollers at the same time.. and as much as I drive my cars I do them anually!

Good luck, I know Curt can hook you up, but if scheduling is a problem let me know and I can pencil you in!

Also Gerard i personally think the two best splitter made are by CPR V1 and the splitter by AIR... the bad thing with the AIR splitter is it's fiberglass so you can mess it up a little easier than the V1 which is urethane. But both look very nice on the car, if you going to paint it to match the body the AIR one maybe more to your taste.
