Good thing your front splitter isn't on!

Haven't done it yet but planning and oil change today. Will likely remove my splitter and leave it off for the upcoming trip to the dealer for oil line recall. Better that I do it than them.

I started to run without my R splitter at first. Then I realize that IF I do scrape something, it's going to damage the actual front bumper cover. If that happened, the mounting points for the splitter would get damaged. If you're trying to keep the R splitter in good shape - just buy the non-R version like I did, to protect the rest of the car. It's about $400 shipped.

PS - that shelf and lawn equipment is going to give me nightmares ;)

Is the regular GT350 splitter OEM? Where did you get it? Thx in advance.

I like to disassemble things.
There is the R model splitter and the non-R splitter. Both are OEM on their respective vehicles. Either can be purchased at any Ford parts department. Be prepared for a deep, large diameter, rigid tube, colonoscopy if the R splitter is what you seek.

I understand it can be had under $1000, now. That still seems a little steep but has me thinking of going ahead and installing mine.

Any Ford dealer can hook you guys up but I always call Steve at TASCA Ford. I think the non-r one was just under $400, shipped.

Here's mine with the non-r splitter. It doesn't look as aggressive but I think it checks the boxes for a street-driven R.

Thanks, found them. I initially couldn't find the parts due to lack of part diagrams for these with properly labeled part numbers. Looks like around $300 and $1000 for the 350 and 350R splitters respectively, before shipping.

I got an R splitter from Autonation a couple of months ago and paid about a grand, shipped. When you hold both versions in your hand you realize that the cost of the R is artificially high and not just a simple amortization function. That's when it hurts most.
