    I'll take pics of the splitters when they arrive tomorrow, and I'm dropping them off Wednesday for molding.

    I'll probably be in for buying a replacement set for the case in which something happens to my real ACS ones if the price is ~$200.

    Shouldn't be a problem there. It's possible I could have a small initial batch of parts done by the end of next week. No promises yet though.

    I thought I can make replica ACSchnitzer Flippers made of Carbonfiber but you're on it , So hope you have a good fitment and everybody will be happy with the result

    Got 'em! Before I even get quotes to have them molded, I know that incorporating all the holes will add cost. (and obviously the bag of hardware would as well) Does anybody care if the splitters don't have the holes? (you'll still have a visible area of where the holes should be)

    Seems like it'd be best to just keep these as cheap as possible, and if some people just want to use body-panel adhesives they can, and whoever wants to use fasteners can just drill some holes

    edit: each splitter weighs 1.8 lbs

    Let me know!

    I say keep it simple. No holes, they're easy enough to drill. I would think some sort of adhesive tape would be more than adequate...

    No holes it is.

    Shouldn't have any issues otherwise

    I'd advise to do them with holes.... if for some reason you break one and need to replace, it will be a %^&# to replicate a 1-off drilled series of hole to get your original fitment quality.

    Not much more effort, standardize the part.

    ^I'll see what the cost difference is, but even if they end up not having holes, you'll still see exactly where all the original ACS holes were (small divot/outline pretty much), so you wouldn't have too hard of a time redrilling in the same spots

    don't run into stuff!

    With or without holes, will you be able to spec the hardware so we can duplicate it? Can't wait!

    I can look into it, might be something I can find through McMaster and just give everybody the part numbers

    worst case scenario, just use adhesives or screws/nuts/bolts

    Can't wait. At 1.8 pounds a piece adhesive would seem to be enough. I know many of the new ACS pieces for the newer cars simply use adhesive as well.
