while the splitter is mounted underneath it still would be pulling down on the bumper no?
The splitter hangs on turnbuckles that are mounted to the actual bumper beam. The bumper cover is supported from underneath by the splitter.

Ah. Ok. Well running a splitter isnt an option and some custom version of that isnt something I feel like trying personally. I guess I'll see what the quik latches do in a couple months when I get them

At first I thought our work had blocked the forums and was freaking out that they found out about the insane amounts of time I waste on here....that woulda been bad but all is right in the world again.
