Thanks! I can tell you what kind they are but I can't tell you where they came from (they were on the car when I bought it).
They are Hella Black Magic's with Outmotoring light mounts...

Air Ducts

MSFITOY, Whered you get the ducts on your front bumper? I really like the look of the stock bumper, but that doesnt mean it couldnt use a little something. Let me know it looks great!

LOVE the look of the splitter when it follows the lines of the aero bumper! So cool!

This is about as low and as close up of any picture I've seen of the splitter.

Yeah, I know it's dirty, just back to TX after MITM and a climb of Pikes Peak.

I also have a question about the splitter and created a thread but have no replies so I'll repeat here.

Should the center section shown below be cut out to allow air to pass. As it is now air is blocked and I would imagine is caught in the hollow. Since I am about to remove the cover to fix some rabbit at 70some mph damage this would be a good time to cut.

Something I mentioned a long time ago...if you have a splitter installed, it will funtion much much better when the under bumper air dam is trimmed off...and you'll get more ground clearance...

The purpose of the splitter is to keep more air in the front of the car above the splitter and allow the air under the car pass quicker what results in more dowforce. Opening the middle hole above the splitter is not good in my opinion, so I kept it closed.

I have also not mounted the front rods because I don't like the look of them. Instead I mounted extra brackets. The splitter is holding up very well on the German Autobahn and Nurburgring.

I would be interested in the pattern you speak of, or if you are willing to make a few of these I would be interested as well as others on this forum.
