I think VX front end generates good downforce relative to the rear... So there's no real need for a better front package unless you have a rear wing IMO... Unless you are just doing it for aesthetics in which case it's irrelevant anyway :)

jameso i would agree with you till you get up to higher speeds 100mph plus the front with a spltter on does make a difference you get no front movement. I run my car with no rear spoiler and definatly think the front splitter works for me or else i would take it off.
