Did you install or did the dealer?

Assuming the dealer installed it, they should pay for replacement.

...define "a little too fast"

I am confused! How does a front spoiler just come loose by going to fast? It may no have properly fastened. Something is not right. We need more information.

Link to splitter install. I'm hoping all dealers have access to this or that there are decent instructions in the box.

The top speed is 170mph+ and no mention of removing bits of the car to achieve that exists in the manual. So you can't have possibly been going too fast. Someone didn't install it correctly.

First post and parts are flying off the car? Maybe trolls loosened the screws when he wasn't looking.

fears of owning this car ?

After watching that video, there is no way that splitter is flying off on its own. It either got hit by something, or the dealership did not install it correctly.

The splitter sits low to the road. Perhaps he hit a pothole traveling at a rate of speed too high to allow for avoidance...hence the "driving too fast" and the "caught" comments.

did you mean one of the owners fears of letting you borrow it has happened? :lol:

 

[ForTehNguyen]

with the sheer amount of bolts holding on even a GT PP splitter and belly pan how would it come off barring a severe impact or complete error in installation

I know I've hit around 120mph, prob higher, with sustained speeds above 90.. No issues. Ijs
