What do you mean shortening the sides?

That way when you drift you'll be a giant, ankle-slicing blade.

On a productive note, how are you attaching it below?

A factory clip on each end and self tap screw into the frame every 6 inches or so.

Any other feedback?

I was actually thinking about doing this myself. With mine I was going to have a full underbody tray along with the side splitters easily detachable front splitter and built in rear diffuser

Already ahead of ya.

Keep in mind airflow for trans and diff cooling.

Yeah I had that in mind, not really sure on how to work with that other than cutouts maybe

Would it be worthwhile to put a vertical bit at the front of the splitter, to hopefully tame or redirect the turbulence coming off the front wheel well?

Also, is it better to have just a side splitter, or an entire underbody panel?

I'm adding a small fin at the front.

All different aero works best if it's a complete system, however it is also stand alone.

Not for the trans or diff, incorporate them into your panels.

I'll only work in aluminum unless I don't have another choice.
