Default Trans Am Diffuser, CETA area, installed...

...sort of, lol. It is fresh paint on the bumper so all we did was put it on with the license plate.

The way these cure, they bow out slightly but they are made of a flexible fiberglass, duraflex, so if you use double sided 3M tape and a couple screws in the bottom to hold it they fit perfect.

Anyways, on to the pics (again, just license plate holding it on for pics and some screws in bottom, no 3M tape holding the top yet)...

More after shots...





Slid right on without touching the exhaust, literally took us 10 minutes to install and MAN does it make the car more aggressive

Oh, you can buy them here...

I've been wanting to see more pictures of this for a long time.. Id be all over one if they would fit Firebird bumpers .. Looks great and definately gets rid of that unfinished factory look .. unfortunately its too much work and cost for me to swap out for a T/A bumper to get one of these right now ..
but man if i ever get a T/A bumper , I'm getting this. good job !

Well I've been debating how this would look on my SOM, but I think u just answered my question lol.. damn near the same car. Looks good though, nice job! I honestly think I like the CETA mod (or this diffuser) on any color BUT SOM, which sucks. maybe it'll grow on me a little more

3-4 in stock then I have to reorder and price may go up due to oil garbage.

Want me to have one for you Qcon when I come up with vent rings?

Pics were low light with a camera phone, we'll get new ones soon...

Do you have an idea of the price increase? I want to buy one now but then again I want to lower my car so I'm stuck. If it goes up like 200 bucks I will definitely order it now

Yeah, I'll take one. These are at the $350 price, correct? I'll get some new shots for you once they're installed.

Q
Yeah, cash so there's no tax and shipping is $100 MORE so the $350 price is just for the product itself...
