Description
The Verus Engineering Two-Piece Front Splitter for the Toyota GR86 is a track-focused aerodynamic upgrade designed to increase front-end downforce, reduce front-end lift, improve high-speed traction, and help reduce lap times. Engineered to work seamlessly with the Verus Engineering rear diffuser, this two-piece splitter system is designed to provide effective and balanced aerodynamic performance as part of the Verus Engineering Ventus 1 package for the GR86.
The kit automatically includes the Verus Engineering Front Splitter Tie Kit (PN A0004A) to provide additional rigidity and durability for the two-piece splitter blade system. The tie system helps support the splitter under aerodynamic load, making it suitable for demanding track use.
Verus Engineering utilized state-of-the-art aerodynamic analysis software during the research and development process to estimate splitter performance on the vehicle. The splitter and rear diffuser were specifically designed to work together as part of a balanced aerodynamic package.
During development, Verus Engineering used in-house vehicle scan data to achieve a near-OEM fit and finish. The two-piece design also provides practical advantages, including reduced shipping costs and easier replacement if the splitter is damaged. Individual half-splitter replacement pieces can be purchased instead of requiring replacement of the entire splitter blade.

Aerodynamic Design
The Verus Engineering Two-Piece Front Splitter was developed for GR86 owners looking to combat front-end lift and increase front-end downforce. By generating additional aerodynamic load over the front axle, the splitter helps increase front-end traction and stability at high speeds.
The splitter was engineered alongside the Verus Engineering rear diffuser to ensure the two aerodynamic components work effectively together. Advanced analysis software was used throughout the research and development process to estimate the aerodynamic performance of the splitter and optimize its interaction with the rest of the package.
The result is a front aerodynamic component designed to improve overall vehicle balance rather than simply adding downforce independently.
Two-Piece Splitter Design
The two-piece splitter blade system provides several practical benefits compared with a traditional one-piece design. Splitting the blade into two sections helps reduce shipping costs while making future repairs more convenient.
If one half of the splitter becomes damaged, the individual half can be replaced rather than requiring the complete splitter blade to be replaced. This makes the system particularly practical for vehicles regularly used on track where contact with curbs or other obstacles can occur.
The included splitter tie system further increases the rigidity and durability of the two-piece blade assembly.
Ventus 1 Aerodynamic Package
The Verus Engineering Two-Piece Front Splitter is part of the Verus Engineering Ventus 1 aerodynamic package for the Toyota GR86. The Ventus 1 package was developed as a balanced aerodynamic system designed to help the GR86 make better use of its tires during track driving while also providing aerodynamic efficiency benefits for daily driving.
The front splitter is designed to complement the rear aerodynamic components in the Ventus 1 package, helping maintain a more balanced aerodynamic setup at speed.
The Ventus 1 system is suitable for both daily-driven GR86s and vehicles regularly used for track days.
