Well for those of you who know I had the Stillen front Splitter and I also had red under glow under the plastic undercarriage. Well it snowed last night and i asked my dad "hey how much snow is there?.....oh like 2-3 inches...oh sweet". Well needless to say it wasn't to bad out but it was more like 3-4inches and when slammed like i am you are about 4inches off the ground. So i had to get to work so i just went anyway. As I'm driving to work i must have hit a bigger piece of snow than i thought, a plow put it in the middle of the street when crossing the road. All i remember on the drive that this could have happened was when i hit a piece of snow i didn't think was that low and snow shot up onto my windshield only a little bit though. I didn't think it would damage anything since its happened before but when i got to work....yea i couldn't believe it. I literally lost 1. Splitter with about $75-100 worth of stickers on it, 2. Red Under glow strip under the car 3. The undercarriage of the car "the plastic part underneath"

Oh but on a finally great note I received a present in the mail I finally got my new SHOW plates. When i saw SHOW i mean for the car shows we go to. Oh and by the way I'm 21 lol

Sorry man, now you see why I'm not lowered yet. When I move to Dallas from MN then I get coils. It sucks when your car becomes an unwanted snow plow. It happened to me when I lived in upstate NY and I was in a stock TBird.

the stillen lip should cover that spot that got ripped off on the bottom. plus it looks clean as hell! just make sure you have enough space for the 3M tape to adhere to.

Are you running the right lug nuts on your stockers?

Also, did you have the turnbuckles on? They may have done some damage while the splitter was getting ripped off.
