Often Imitated, Never Duplicated.
INSTALLATION GUIDE
Let us preface by boldly stating this is NOT a universal product, but rather handcrafted to fit the Volkswagen MK7 GTI accurately and specifically. Isn’t that such a refreshing statement? Gone are the days of “universal” parts that yield lackluster results.

We Are Innovators
In addition to our robust material choice, we are the first to implement an innovative Reinforcement Brace with our Street Edition Front Splitter offerings, the aerobrace™. The purpose of this Splitter/Vehicle specific Brace is to evenly distribute load and boost rigidity when generating higher levels of negative lift or even when driving during harsh weather conditions. aerofabb® is currently the only company to offer this near plug and play solution.
Many other Front Splitters currently offered for the MK7 GTI simply fasten to the notoriously weak Splash Tray and nothing else. This approach while simple, results in the failure of mounting points, Splash Tray, or both. Our Front Splitter and aerobrace™ combination has proven its performance over our competitors.
Hidden behind their photos
Its all in the details up close... Don't be fooled by inferior COPIES on the market made from lesser materials like aluminum which requires inconsistent paint or powder coating that WILL crease and chip, or even low grade plastics with subpar surface textures and edge finishes. Nothing beats the original!
Don't get it twisted, literally...
There's a reason we don't use metal! Pure Aluminum and/or Aluminum Composite panels, also known as ACM "Sign Making Material" (Polymetal, Alubond, Dibond, Alumilite, etc). What happens to metal when it bends? What happens to painted or powder coated surfaces when it comes in contact with road debris or if you happen to scrape the roads surface? It twists, creases, or chips under stress and worst of all, it stays like that. Save that wavy bacon for your plate at breakfast!
Support Rods
aerofabb® Splitter Support Rods are made from 316 Stainless Steel, but how do our Support Rods differ from many others on the market? Most competitors utilize the popular Clevis, Nut, and Bolt combination. While this approach seems adequate, it drastically limits ground clearance as the left over threads can hang up to a half inch past the bottom of the Splitter. Our Support Rods fasten in the reverse order eliminating the possibility of bolt threads making contact with the roads surface or anything that could result in costly damage.
Front Splitter Construction
The aerofabb® V1 Street Edition Front Wind Splitter is constructed from a U.S. Made, High-Impact Plastic and comes in a durable, lightly textured, Matte Black Finish. Every aerofabb® Front Wind Splitter includes a factory installed logo badge. We then take it a step further by creating a recessed pocket for the badge to mount.
Hassle Free Installation
By utilizing some pre-existing holes located on the factory MK7 GTI Front Bumper, you can align our Splitter quickly and without worry. No need to spend time fussing with clamps, measurements, or your markings for a less than decent alignment. We took the time to make it perfect so you don't have to.
Installs with common hand tools and comes with detailed easy to read instructions. All holes are pre-drilled precisely where they need to be and ready for you to mount using the supplied stainless hardware.
