The whole point of a splitter is for added downforce on the front end of the car when on a track and to allow less air from going under the body of the vehicle which results in lift (turbulence under the car).
The picture of the car in the link with the "splitter" seem to be useless (performance wise). Those seem to be just for show.

Rep Power: 0 up close those can actually look pretty good, I have seen a metal one on a silver 2k1 civic coupe
looked good. Carbon Fiber would look good, but not after hitting a bump. If you find the shop name, please post it. thanks
