Hmm.. Can't really tell. Could you prop it up again and take a picture from farther away, of the rear of the car from different angles?

Then I could really give you my opinion.

Love the car! I think your diffuser would look more complete if you made some pieces that would either wrap under the exhaust to cover the side of your tips or separate pieces to cover the sides. From your pics it looks like your tips almost stick out too far... Just an idea.

i think it looks killer!! If i were you i would recess it into the bumper a little. Like cut a one inch section out, along the entire length of the diffuser so that it sits up into a space! Would look so clean!

I think it could look awesome with the right tips. Not really feeling it with the oval tips. Maybe something like the quad tips that have a square end, or the rectangle tips that the 93-97 Z28's came with.

Your car looks great. I think the deffuser would look better if the fins were a little shorter & recessed under the bumper lip.

Slap it on for a bit and then decide.

i think it would look good after the tips are aligned and will cover up the muffler.
