if you are talking about the universal splitter, then you can search on ebay, measure your bumper width..

not all products on ebay are bad quality.

that was the first thing that came to mind (and only thing for that matter).


but i figured that would be the exact opposite considering his second part of his question. He is looking for something more along the style lines, not hardcore race

It's still a splitter though. Doesn't matter if it's not "blingy" or CF.

Besides, try having a CF splitter on teh front end of a lowered car. Won't stay showy for long.

There's a few good things along with bad things with having the splitter.

Good:
1. Look Cool
2. Prevent the bumper from being scraped.

Bad:
1. If you drive into parking spot too far and hit the stop it will crack your front bumper and possibly completely bust it. I know from experience as when my power steering went out I got lazy and bad things happened.


With this in mind the idea of a splitter is very simple and looking at the ones that I got sold with the car making your own would be really simple. Basically all they are are the plastic urethane or whatever the material is that you can find at home depot. Buy a couple sheets or one if big enough and cut out your design. Then drill in four holes along with matching these holes with your bumper. Paint it and then bolt it up and there you go. If you would like to be fancy you could make a couple braces for it to attach to part of the frame as the professional ones are made.
