Default SPB front splitter?

The Club Race rules say that the only front splitter allowed is: "GT3 style factory part #996‐505‐986‐91 or clone only". It turns out that the factory part has been discontinued and is no longer available. I've tried to order it from several places, and they all bombed out.

Can anyone recommend a vendor for a clone of this part? Preferably one at a reasonable price that can be acquired quickly -- I really want to get it installed before the Summit Point race in two weeks.

Or, is there an air dam that you would recommend instead?

Thanks!

I had it on a previous car and removed it to go faster. There's no appreciable advantage to a splitter on an SPB.

PS - But if you want to slow your car down, do it!!!
