Any tips for install besides 2 people removing the bumper? Is there any sagging in the back center of the splitter?

My splitter has been sitting in the garage for 3 months now lol

I know this is digging up old threads but I've just got around to installing my APR splitter this past weekend and I also wondered if there was some type of support for the back part of the splitter as well for those who have installed this thing. The splitter comes with 12 bolts.....four for each side and if you want to do the front as well (I don't know why you wouldn't) but there's nothing supporting the back part of the splitter and this thing is not light (heavier than the plastic)...

I had noticed on the initial pics that there were four holes drilled in the back area of the splitter.....what was the purpose?

Like the idea, the look, and functionality of the bottom piece. I just wished they use something else to attach to the front bumper (Something you can't see).

Does any one have any inputs on installing this? Underneath the front OEM SSS lip there are two clips on both sides -left and right- silver in color. What was done with these to get a more even surface for the lip to sit on? Were they cut off or bent back? Thanks.

I had my rods powder coated matte black for a more subtle look.

I think he got the wrong splitter. I have a lot more "meat" on mine and I ordered my APR splitter for SSS Aero Lip from APR. I guess as long as he got it up there and its functional it's all good!! I'll take some pics of mine when I finish it this weekend.

Does that thing fit on a non SSS evo x? How much did that lip run you?

They have wind splitters for the Non-SSS and the SSS Evos. Check out their site www.aprperformance.com. I think the one he bought was for the non-SSS, he said he got it off ebay and you never know what you're going to get until it arrives on your doorstep.....

The prices are listed on their website...I think I paid $340 for mine...
