real splitter and diffuser?

Just ripped off my carbon fiber front splitter on my 18' LCI M2 on the canyon roads, was wondering if any companies make real chassis mounted splitters and diffusers that give real aero gains.

Look up TySpeed's car. Although his may be a bit aggressive for a street car.

Why? Are you planning on doing Time Trials with your M2?

Otherwise get a sturdy splitter (not CF) like Lightweights..

odds are any true aero adjustable splitter will be very expensive and not last long on the street.

Lightweight makes a front splitter in ABS plastic which is more durable than CF.

This one is what he is referring to.

Not sure it will do much since it is tiny.

There are some M4 GTS style ones with a removable jutting lip (light weight has one) maybe that is an idea? Just bolt the lip when needed.

I had APR cut me a custom splitter for my F22, call them up and see what they can do.

the one on the M2CS racing doesn't look that functional and im skeptical of the durability because it's made of carbon fiber. My VF splitter got destroyed in the canyons by a rock.

You want a adjustable splitter and spoiler for Solo 2? If so your car will be in the Prepared Class. In other words not competitive. Also important to know is because of the lower speeds the wing/splitter will have to be quite aggressive. (LARGE)
You would have to take them off for street use.

Every car I've ever seen running serious aero for Auto X are not street driven cars. They are un-registered towed in toys.
