I like it, it's flat and carbon, two things I am looking for.

Nope, that was made by a 'lister and Tony G also bought some of the race versions and re-inforced them. Not sure where you'd find another one.

Joe Toth is the man who developed and fabricates that splitter, tei@telus.net. I had his race version splitter on my 951. Very functional and no scraping problems on speed bumps or driveways. Mine was made from fiberglass, I don't believe he makes them out of cf. Very high quality piece.

That's him. Surprised you could run the race version on a street car without issues? I struggled to get mine on a trailer even with wooden chocks under the wheels/tyres.

Thanks guys, I like it, it's similar to the GT Racing one although it pulls in around the sides. I see this one is FG as well after looking more closely at it. I will give him an email and still see if he produces them.

That looks great on GR, I was thinking of using undercoating on mine, but now I can't decide if I just want to paint in GR. After I decide, I'll post up pics when I get mine installed.

Question for you lister's: Since most of you guys have good taste, let me ask you guys your opinion on the splitter. Which do you prefer, black or red?

I have terrible taste, but I'll offer my opinion anyway. I think if you were sticking with Black then that bed liner (?) looks better than shiny on a Red car, but perhaps same colour as car or maybe even a darker Red could look interesting?

Daily driver I'd probably go black bed liner like above but just weekend duty, then red.
