looking at the track dog splitters and im wondering if any one has any experience in using them, particularly on a mildly lowered car

they look like a good thing but do they turn into broken and twisted plastic in 5 or 10 minutes!?!?!?

If they are any good, I might get some too. Possibly save on shipping if we buy together?

There was one on my car when I bought it. It looks like it has had a few scrapes underneath and I've given it a few more. So far it has stood up fine, there is a split around one attaching bolts, you can't see it it has not caused any issues.

Stock height SE. I've only had it on a few weeks. Haven't hit anything yet but it is a solid bit of plastic. They provide plastic bolts so that they will break off and not take your bar with the splitter. Pretty happy with mine and would buy again. The packaging was a bit dodgy. He did pack well but the box was likely to have been old when he got his hands on it and was degraded further on route. It comes rolled in a large box.

Im thinking standard 1 inch version, but could be tempted by the 1.75 inch version. hard to see how they are on the car from the photos. what did people go for or think( straw pole)?

I've got one on my NB as the GLW ruined the front spoiler by driving straight up the drive way instead of on an angle. We had the car fixed and I put a splitter on. The GLW still drives up the drive and not on an angle but the front spoiler is still untouched. The splitter is still in great shape although I haven't had a good look at the underneath of it. I've had the splitter for about six months. I think I paid $100 for it.
Definately worth it. 8)
