In race applications, a splitter is used to channel air around the sides of the vehicle and to add frontal down force so that the car doesn't lift at high speeds.

In real world street applications like on our cars, it's mainly for looks cause most people won't see speeds where these would be an actual benefit.
Thanks for the info! I had no clue

If you live somewhere with really crappy roads and giant potholes, a splitter might not be right for you. But they sure do look great.
