I'm copying Spyschim's idea. It'll be cut lengthwise to create a concave rbber section just like any other splitter then I'll cut a profile (borrowed from the E39) on to the ends before I fit it to the car. The pipe is much deeper than I'll use to get the shallow internal radius.

It'll either be brilliant or st, I'm not sure which yet smile
I've stated my claim. hehe

I haven't decided as yet as the Griff is quite different to the Chim under the nose. I *think* I want it as far forward as I can get it.

Or it might create a low pressure area and draw the air out...

My cooling is pretty good, I'll soon know if it's causing a problem.

Cooling will not be an issue as I did this last year. The advantage is a low pressure area in the flat area under the front resulting in increased stability. The original airsplitter is placed further back, on the trailing edge of this flat area, and it will build pressure/lighten the front with increased speeds. I believe the reason to put it between the wheels is simply more protection against damage.. per

Anything you hit at above 5mph will just tear it off. In Griff v. dead badger, the badger tore the front spoiler clean off, bent it double & discarded it at the side of the road. HTH
