Looks good but waht do you gain by using larger discs with smaller callipers except additional un-necessary weight?

Quickshift Time..
Lower console was removed.. including gaitor.
So, we had to cut off the ball, so we used an auto saw powered by a compresser! Which did the job in seconds lol..

Next job was to tackle the splitter idea..
How would you attach the splitter to the bottom bumper without it falling off when the wind blows..?
Our solution.. HOMEMADE BRACKETS!

5 pieces of scrap metal we used to mace 'C' shaped brackets and then bolted them on either side of the bumper and the splitter holding it in place.
