How does the Side Splitter Kit for 981 attach to the car?

The Side Splitter Kit for 981 Porsche Cayman GT4 fastens into the factory plastic side skirt with plastic screws or rivet nuts, using the stainless hardware Verus Engineering supplies. Verus describes it as a simple bolt-on, and publishes an informative packet and an aero kit development packet for the 981 GT4.

Do side splitters make a difference on track?

Yes, as part of a system. Verus Engineering reports that the side splitters reduce lift by stopping high-pressure air from spilling beneath the car and improve overall efficiency, and it credits them with lower lap times. Verus designed them as one piece of the Ventus 2+ package for the GT4, so their effect builds on the parts around them.

What separates the gloss and matte versions?

Only the clear coat over the same 2x2 twill pre-preg carbon. Gloss Clear gives the weave a deep shine, and Matte Clear a satin surface closer to the look of unpainted trim. Verus Engineering prices both versions the same, and the fit, contents and hardware are identical, so the choice comes down to the rest of the car.

Are both side splitters included in the kit?

Yes. Both a left-hand and a right-hand side splitter come in the box, along with a hardware kit holding all the fasteners needed to fit them. Both pieces were shaped from Verus Engineering scan data of the 981 GT4, so they follow the factory side skirt with a near OEM fit and finish.

Which other Verus parts work with these side splitters?

Verus Engineering developed them as the step from Ventus 2 to Ventus 2+ on the 981 GT4. Ventus 2 combines the carbon thermoplastic front splitter, the dual element dive planes, the carbon rear diffuser and the flat underbody panels with a rear wing, and every part was designed to work as one aerodynamic system.

Description

Verus Engineering Side Splitter Kit for 981 Porsche Cayman GT4

Verus Engineering’s Side Splitter Kit for 981 Porsche Cayman GT4 runs two blades of 2×2 twill pre-preg carbon down the sills, keeping high-pressure air on the flanks from spilling under the car and so trimming lift through the middle of the chassis. They are the parts that turn the Verus Ventus 2 package for the GT4 into Ventus 2+, and Verus shaped them in CFD from its own scan of the car so they follow the factory side skirt closely. Every Ventus 2+ piece was designed to work as a system, so these make the most sense on a GT4 already carrying the splitter, dive planes and wing.

About Verus Engineering

Verus Engineering designs aerodynamic and performance parts in Indianapolis, Indiana. Two engineers founded it in late 2014 as Velox Motorsports and renamed it in 2017 after a trademark dispute; verus is Latin for true or complete. Each design starts from a 3D scan of the car, is developed with CFD and finite element analysis and is validated on track, across more than 20 platforms from the GR86 to the C8 Corvette.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
