Looks great, but it's probably a pain in the a$$ to drive around town...

Done all angles. The dip out of my court onto the public road is just too severe. My drive way is bad enough but there’s enough room to come off at an angle.

What!? You live at Fremont and not England right?

That must be a moster dip. You can always put the Cup splitter back on for track use. Have you try backing the car out instead? I have to do that with my crazy driveway

It would look really weird backing up to a restaurant's driveway...

I had a problem getting out of a driveway of a restaurant a couple weeks ago, I scraped the whole splitter to the top part. Thank God I didn't damage the bumper

I live on a private road and the access to the main street has a horrible dip through a storm drain to the road….and now some collapsed concrete due to the rain. My neighbors thought I was stuck on Sunday as I spent 45mins trying to figure out if any angle would work. Even the stock splitter scraps a little.

Anyways, problem solved! I just ordered this lift kit to solve the problem, hoping it won’t affect my cornering ability

Oh ... I back up gas station, police station, entrance to freeway, airport, Ferrari dealer just in the name of saving my splitter

LOL, man! sounds like you have road from hell! I would pack couple wood block in the trunk and lay them down over the road just so you can keep your Cup splitter. Hey, call the city of San Jose and have them fix the crappy road
