      I think it would be cool to have a larger splitter. Maybe an inch or so. Remove the track extension and the rub strips to use all the bolts along the front. Probably would need supports on the front. APR sells splitter supports that attach to the front similar to the 2016 acr-e viper.

      Sorry can’t help with the bolts. You might try a local bolt/fastener supplier.

      There are stone guards for the front and rear wheel wells any chance you could make these up they are ridiculously priced for what they are thanks.http://viperspecialtyperformance.com/catalog/images/FStoneGaurds.jpg

      Firefighter196 – Yes the stone guards should also be easy. Just looks like the flat piece of high density polyethylene. I’ll need the physical piece in my hands to check the thickness and shape so I can mill them out.

      I already have my track extension and rub strips off the car and getting traced this week in our “free time”.
      I might just have to bite the bullet and buy these for myself … and before I put them on I can take a close look at their manufacturing specs 🙂

      I’m sort of on the 80 hour workweek schedule … so I’m slammed busy, but I will get these projects rolling forward. I will likely just mill out a whole batch and post them for sale. If anyone wants them, great. If not, then I guess I’ll have an endless supply!

      Anything else you can think of I’m all ears, this is great news for me that I won’t be spending ludicrous money on simple wear pieces!

      First:
      I have searched high and low and cannot find the OEM replacement bolts for the track extension:
      https://www.viperpartsrackamerica.com/index.php/products/2008-2010-dodge-viper-srt10-acr-track-extension-kit-68050015ab

      8 Bolts across on the vehicle side, it’s an M6x1.0x12mm bolt I believe, 10mm head, 8.8 hard. I can find generic flange bolts locally but I want the OEM version with the wide flange/washer. Does anyone know of a link to purchase this direct replacement?

      Second/Random:
      The track extension/rub strips and a few other parts on the car are basic 2 dimensional milled objects. Most new pricing I’ve found for these items is between $600-850 per kit. I have a large 4 axis mill … are there enough people on this forum that need these or want replacements/extras? Dodge is absolutely ripping us on that price, I could make exact replacements for $200 all day.

      Minus the bolts of course. Because I can’t find the darned bolts!

      Maybe if enough people are interested I’ll go ahead and trace mine, test, and mill out a full sheet (should be at least 20 sets) and post the purchase info in the parts section.

      If there are any other 2 dimensional parts that you might think are outrageously priced, let me know. 2 dimensional milling is easy, I do it all day, and I think we’d all be happier if keeping things clean and new got cheaper 🙂 Makes us all look good!
