2025+ Savage Spec-2 splitter

[Atlien]

Has anyone seen or installed one? Does it stick out beyond the bumper and would be flush with the OEM carbon wheel arch deflectors? Looking to buy this and keep the expensive OEM splitter on standby while I learn the car.

Same question

Like the photo shows, and after talking to Savage, it does NOT extend beyond the fender. It’s flush, like the non CF standard lip. The CF is CF and the black one is fiberglass.

The photo on their site is a little misleading isn’t it?

Naming, lack of description, and such is a bit deceptive. I'm wondering if the side skirts match up to the OEM or if they're different as well.

here’s a photo of the Savage Cadillac splitter. I don’t have my blackwing yet, so i can’t tell you how it lines up.

Does anyone have comparisons between the OEM cf1 splitter and Savage Cadillacs?

I also have a pair of Savage Cadillac side skirts I can take pictures of

How do the side skirts look? I purchased their carbon upper/lower grill header pieces and fitment is not great plus the adhesive they use is terrible. Had to replace it with VHB

I don’t have my car yet, so can’t say much about fit. The side skirts are held by rivets.

How bad is the fitment on your grill pieces? Any photos?

So the v weave is slanted a bit and the bottom piece has a crack in nthe clear or something. They've sent me a replacement upper but I just reached out about the lower yesterday.

Hard to see but the original forming doesn't actually follow the shape of the grill so you're bending it and forcing it to stay via adhesive. They use a thin gray foam adhesive which I've swapped out for 3m vhb. I'll find out how long it actually lasts though.
It's passable for the price.

I had these fears as well, so I purchased the exhibition of speed spoiler since the quality should be better and the spoiler is much more visible.

Imperfections on a splitter and side skirts will likely be harder to see since they’re so low to the ground

Agreed. I've also got that on order from Terrance. I'm probably going to end up going with Anderson for t the splitter and side skirts eventually
