Gentleman,
It does NOT flex at high speed....it cuts through the air, it does not push through the air.
The rock demostration was to illustrate its' unique ability to flex under load without damage to the splitter OR your nose...remember this was a 65+lb rock causing it to flex up. The depth and composition of the splitter allows for transference of horizontal and vertical energies to be dissapated along the length x width x 2.533 of the impacted surface. Reduce the multiplier accordingly if additional hardware (greater than stock) is utilized.
The splitter, at high speed, distorts about as much as your front end caves in...it doesn't.
I will do my best, as stated earlier, to acquire a camera mount this weekend annd record the actual event (splitter live @ 125 mph) and post it.

Wow I'm not in the market for one now, but when I am, you can count me on me for buying one. And kudos to you, that is one of the best spoiler products ever made for our cars!

He's put tentative dates on all this. Read through the post/s. This guy is a doer not just a talker.

I only received one (yesterday)... anyway, the PP fees are structured by which PP method you choose to pay by. Verify with PP what your applicable charges would be then apply them to the total I forwarded to you. OR to avoid any fees send a check direct.

Yep...I had to keep the car an extra few weeks for some splitter work so I did not get it painted when I thought I was. However, I was by there this afternoon and he is taking it in Thursday and I am picking it up on Monday (he's working the weekend to complete it). I want you to see the quality of his work before you make a decision....I did ask him about getting your car in, and he pretty much echoed what I was thinking...show you mine, and if you like, call him. $1300.00 cash...no body work 
I explaied that you would need some and he'll work with you.
I am still working feverishly on the splitters...we ran into an oven problem, (splitters are slightly too big for what we have) so I am tryinng to find the most prudent method to resolve this. The estimates for these larger ovens go anywhere from 10K to 25K dollars. That's a pretty big hit, but with so much already invested it makes little sense to not finish...October 10th...ugh.
