I've noticed that there is no How to /DIY for custom brake ducting so I created my own

FT-86 SpeedFactory Front Splitter has been received and install. I've also received my Cusco Accelerator pedal with the same shipment. It was a really straightforward installation, thanks again @FT-86 SpeedFactory for good quality product and great communication



and now on the car



with my street tires and wheels since I will be driving to a track event this weekend I cannot wait to test this splitter at track and combine that with the Driveway Labs diffuser I recently ordered @Wonderbar

I've installed my new Invidia Catback so the fitment should not be an issue with the V1 diffuser



Cusco pedal will be installed tonight

Which splitter support rods did you go with? How are they secured to the bumper?

These are the support rods

And these are the backing disks

You dont have to use support rods with this splitter since the splitter is attached from the bottom of the car with more than 10 rivet nuts(its track tested and notthjng happened even after i ran off the track once) sothey are currently attached to the bumper and gives me angle adjustability.. I will however, add the new brackets and fins once they release the upgrade kit

I have to mention though the new Race version will include the fins/vanes and support rods that will attach to the bumper crash beams, for those who look for the ultimate solution

How do you like the balance of the car with that splitter / diffuser combo? I'm thinking of getting the same setup for my car because braking down from triple-digit speeds feels so sketchy stock.
