I have customers running ECS street shield with my FMIC, it just barely rubs the drivers side charge pipe, but as mentioned no room for their optional frame brackets.

My neighbor has a CNC plasma & a pile of aluminum we’re planning to explore options with.

I’m thinking a chassis mounted flat bottom splitter/skid plate, but also don’t know how I feel about running a splitter on a daily.

The idea of using the alltrack brackets to mount a splitter feels very appealing, but it would 100% be for show on my car. Not sure I'd be low enough to actually generate any sort of pressure differential, while still remaining streetable

not sure who installed your Clubsports the fronts are backwards you have the passenger side on the drivers and vice versa since the canisters should face forward.

Damn you are 100% correct thanks for spotting this. I've informed them.

How does that get fucked up?

I imagine if there were a sway bar or subframe it would have been very obvious. Because the end link mount is facing the wrong way... At least the car was never driven like that. Not impressed at all

Chances are they would have figured that out when they started to put things back together. But yeah, makes you wonder what else they’ll drop the ball on…

Speaking of tiguans, had ours ceramic coated today. Took it to the service department to get the sos light on the dash off, only for it to come back on 3 hours latter. They are thinking it's the module up by the sunroof is bad. Great news for a 7 day old car.

Alltrack brackets 100% interfere with my FMIC, so I’d never use them for anything.

If I build a chassis mounted splitter it’ll fit like OEM with the rest of my lineup
