The splitter isn't dimensionally 'large' so It may not do a 'lot' aerodynamically,and Roush doesn't appear to make any claims other than aesthetics.
You'll have to make the call.
I don't know if it will be worth it, by looks I mean. I am just hoping there is at least SOME benefit. I'm concerned about mileage over the long haul, not really trying to save money in a month or year. I noticed there were no claims on the site
