Default Added the Roush Splitter to my 2013 Mustang - Pics & Review included

Santa Claus came early this year and gifted me a new Roush splitter for my ’13 Mustang. I think it’s the best looking splitter on the market right now. Very clean looking.
Anyway – I got around to installing it yesterday and thought I’d include some insight to the install. I never read the Roush directions, as I only watched the CJ Pony Parts install video on youtube. They did an impressive job and I recommend you do the same when it comes to watching how to install. I used a dremel with a cut-off wheel instead of what they asked for in the video and had ramps to get the front off the ground.
To review the splitter – I think Roush should plastic wrap it before shipping, as there was a light scratch on a corner after removal. Utilizing the stock splitter definitely complicates things for inexperienced modifiers, but is doable. Overall, I’m very happy.

Couple of tips:

1. Take your time
2. Pay attention when reinstalling
3. Get a power drill with a 7mm and 8mm socket end (it’ll speed things up big time)
4. When trimming your factory splitter, make the cut-off ends flush with the bottom piece.
5. Garment measuring tape will give you the best 18.5" measurement.

Before pics:



After pics (I drove through fog on the way to work, hence the weird coloring on the splitter):

Looks good i almost bought this splitter but ended up paying a little more for a stillen gen 1 with turn buckles. Its a urathane material i believe. Very heavy duty. I went to a ford dealer and had they had a v6 roush 2013 bit after looking at the splitter kit nd touching it. I was disappointed on how cheap looking it felt. I was pissed when i got the side splitters as well. Looked flimsy. Long story short i returned them because i was missing a side. Asked for refund but they sent out replacement. Opened the box and they looked and felt more heavy duty? So i installed them. Next mod to think about is maybe plasti dip the chrome grille surround. Leave the horse emblem chrome.

Thanks! Next up is a new grille. I hate the chrome surround.

Prorider, how much lower is the Roush splitter compared to the stock one? I should get my Roush splitter in on Monday.
