The thing looks like a bit of an air brake to me so I was wondering is there any advantage in removing it? I have a large aftermarket alloy rad and have also cut away the numberplate section and it runs well cool.

here's a another question: For those of you using a splitter on the front of a 3rd gen Camaro, have you blocked the holes in nose at the license plate? Will the air deflector grab enough air with the splitter installed? I have enough Alumi-lite to build a splitter that projects past the front lip of the lower valance on the nose about 4". I'm figuring the splitter will be about 5" from the pavement. If I seal off the open spaces forward of the bumper support beam and allow air in through the opening from the rad support to the bumper support and as wide as the rad, will that be sufficient air flow?
Please post any pics you may have of front splitters on Camaros. I'm curious about the under tray fab work....... |
