Well I called Bill Dougherty and he didn't have the price on hand and he never called back. Sunset gave me a price of 212...... Dell, I guess the prices have gone up. If still have a deal at 150$, please let me know.

IIRC, Sunset can't sell PMNA parts. That price of 212 is for the stock one I believe.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a CUP splitter. I know some of you bought a couple so I'm wondering if any of you are willing to sell. Sunset is out and it could take a while. Prices also seem to have gone up.
Thanks in advance.
BTW still looking for a set of metropol blue euro GT3 seats.

Thanks guys but I found one. Now just need to order a new one to give to Mike K. Still waiting answers from Bill Dougherty and Scott from TRG.

A while ago I purchased 2 cup splitters and kept one as a backup. Well, it was stored hanging in my garage on a nail for over a year. I looked at it and the front center section of about 6 inches was slightly bent/distorted so it did not seat properly. Basically a few of the push pins do not go all the way in. I am not confident it will stay on at speed.
The moral of the story is make sure to properly store your backup -- lesson learned.
Time for a little tape to help patch the gap in the front.

You should use 1/2" wide double-sided tape around the outside perimeter in any case. Helps keep it from flying off at speed. Just last week a fellow lost his splitter at Pacific Raceways because he didn't have that tape on.
To help flatten a bent splitter you can clamp a couple pieces of wood on both sides to flatten it. Do this for a few days before putting it on.
In my case I autox my car as well and smacking a cone separated the mounting tape. Rather than remove the splitter, clean it up and remount it, I just used some black duct tape to cover the gaps so air couldn't get in there and rip off the splitter. Worked fine at Portland and Seattle last week.
Cheers,
