Default Good ideas for chassis mounted splitter on a 996 c2?

Like the title says, looking for a good way to chassis mount a homemade splitter on a 996 c2. Trying to avoid big turnbuckles sticking out the front and don't want to disrupt the radiator ducts either. Most solutions for front aero seem to be buying cup front ends or buying pieces that are attached to the front bumper only. I'd love to see some pics or here other people's solutions. Thanks!

I did. I actually like his stuff a lot but it appears to be mounted to the bumper, no? I was even considering using his stuff and bracing it. Or his lip and make my own blade and supports.

Splitter should be attached in such away that if you go off , the splitter will rip off and leave the bumper undamaged.

I agree. But I'd also like the splitter interacting directly with the chassis instead of flexing the bumper. You can usually do it in a way that still allows for the blade to break off if you dig in or hit something.
