[QUOTE="GTSpartan, post: 16239407, member: 21531"] +1 That fact that the pencil pushers and suits even let them think about doing that is almost unheard in these days of ultra PC Fortune 500 companies. They are basically doing what the OEM’s did back in the 60’s, with all their RPO/special order cars that were in no way officially sanctioned by the companies themselves. Of course they had to jump through all kinds of legal hoops to actually sell the consumer these parts. They found a way to navigate through the mountains of red tape and virtually infinite gov’t regulations and got it done. BRAVO!!! Don’t bang on them because they technically couldn’t install it on the car to stay legally compliant, and give them some hope of defending themselves in the event someone wraps their car around a telephone pole. Give them some credit. This is a similar argument that the Corvette dingleberry’s made when the Viper ACR-E was launched. Dodge couldn’t install the front splitter at the dealership and deliver to the buyer because is technically wasn’t legally compliant. God forbid should you hit a pedestrian and the splitter hits them first vs. the bumper. Therefore, any comparison between the two cars had to be made without the splitter installed. What Dodge did do? They put it in the back for you to install the second you drove off the lot. [/QUOTE]
