bump for the tow hook...and free template

 

figured i would share my lil story of my splitter. i just got it panted last Friday at work and was installed Sunday mornings along with the wheels. so drove all Monday with it fine. and on Tuesday night we took a little cruise down Pittsburgh and on the way home... decided i wanted a go a lil fast and be4 i knew it the splitter had ripped the bolts right out the bottom of the cover and landed in about twenty pieces... kinda suxs.. didn't even get to take pic's with it on

 

I have seen splitters adjusted down (even done it myself for auto-x) and not re adjusted just about flat for the highway ... They will bend, break and even pull the bumper.

Mine is attached with 6mm bolts at the chin / bumper connection and, the standoffs are needed (not an option)

Mine won't break !

PM me if you want some info

 

I have a splitter from Cor Blmy ( this is ruff cat on her husbands putah) and he is right!

 

Well for me the spliter is well atach i went on the highway at 150 and it still on the atachment on the bumper is VERY important....and it set to level..

How do the 2 front brackets attach to the bumper? Are they high enough to tap into the real bumper or do they just bolt into the bumper cover? Anyone do a step by step write up on this?

 

Hi the front bracket only hold on the bumper not the sub frame ..i have put
2 1 in washer on each side it all you need i have driven the car to hight speed and the spliter is stil there.. my most consen are the sidewalk..

 

Mine go thtough the bumper skin and use fender washers ..

My splitters come with ALL hardware, How to modify to use bolts on the chin (not the OEM self tappers) and even instructions to remove the bumper.

PS; Sidewalks / curbs / cones ... dont wipe mine out

 

I can honeslty say that I have put the Wyvern through hell frozen over and back. I went to Myrtle Beach for spring break and coming back to NW Ohio through the lovely snow storm we got about a month ago...

The Wyvern held up while I was driving in snow up to the top of the lower grill and higher When I was done driving(columbus area), the snow was up to my hood scoop. No Joke!. I was drifting my car afloat the snow and I had no problems, even blasted through a pile that was 2' deep(avoiding an accident).

Brian I need to give you a call. It has been a few weeks and I have some news and will continue working on the drawings

good info on the "hell and back" test

They arn't industrucatable ... but will hold up to a lot.
I am going to do a 1 year "minimal" cost replacement if someone does have issues.

 

Sounds like a good warranty to me
They would have to do something real stupid, but hey it could happen...
The hell and back was truely that...hell and back.
I love to drive through the worst conditions, I don't know why, I jsut like it. These were probably some of the worst and I had a blast(I know I have a sick sence of enjoyment with cars and road conditions)
But, seriously there is absoluteley nothing wrong with mine
Talk to you soon Brian.
Chris.
