I don't have any measurements but with the rad fans on, I feel lots of air coming from my vents.

This is mine however there are quite a few people using the pro awesome splitter ramps.

What about splitters for 2022 cars? The basic shape looks somewhat similar.
Anyone know of Verus, APR, or anyone else that is saying they have something for ouur cars?
If making a DIY it seems to me I should be starting with about a 2 ft. X 6 ft. piece.
Without buying a full 4x8 sheet, that size seems impossible to come by in aircraft grade spruce. 1/2" Appleply might be available locally.

We got our car last week. We are diving into it but making parts that bolt on like an OE part, takes a bit of time.

I understand. I used to have a top tier prototyping business. I just mounted an older APR GTC 200 wing to my new BRZ. Special bolts, hammering metal underneath, grinding on the plastic lip inside to make room for washers and nuts. I ended up with a very clean install, but it's not for the feint of heart. I just didn't like the bolt-on bracket solutions I saw. I thought they all looked hideous.
Could you just sell me a splitter blank and I do the rest? I have TIG and fabricating capabilities. I did a custom install of an APR splitter on my '08 STI track car too.
