down for replica ones as long as material is same or tougher, no fiberglass etc etc...maybe could even add a little horizontal lip or few mm deeper as a bonus

Literally mine got torn off over the weekend. Well it lasted about 3-4 years.

Anyone find a good aftermarket one of same/similar OEM material?

My dad has been rocking his GT2 without the spoiler and the look bothers me (it shouldn’t, as it’s not my car!) . Would be great if someone made a more flexible version of the OEM. His fairly new OEM lip cracked at the mounting point (on the inside) after very little contact with the road surface. Seems to be a common fault with the design? He is reluctant to fit the new replacement. Perhaps an aftermarket axle lift is the only option for the 6-2

it's really not that bad but I've found there's variations in quality and fit on the stock splitters, returned a few before...think my last one made it a few years before a bonehead move split the mounting face a bit..still works though.

I wonder if a good plastic welder could repair the split. The problem is there’s no room for extra material on the backside of the lip where it mounts to the bumper

prices went up on splitters a year or so ago, might go Toth this time when it starts falling apart-so far non-issue/can't see

I didn't find a good aftermarket solution. Cheapest OEM I found was Sunset Porsche at $385 this past summer and I somehow got free shipping. Looks like it's $394 right now + ~$100 shipping.
