First, good job and congratulations on the grade!
Second, I could not tell from the picture, but I am guessing that the splitter is lower than the car's belly panels? Maybe 2 inches/5 cm? If so, I suggest you try using a piece of ABS plastic or the polycarbonate to make a splitter lip that sticks out (forward) an inch or so from the front edge of the bodywork below the bumper. But is flush with the belly panels. This might work better for fuel economy...
