Great looking diffusers IMO. I acquired the first production unit or whatever(has the signature underneath the fiber glass inside and a little paper in there), but the previous owner was trying to yank the ****** off the car when he sold it then left it half stuck on. I gave it a couple tries but both of the ends on each side start popping outwards when installing.
These diffusers adds such a unique look to the car, I'm gonna give it another shot now that the sun's beating down harder and hopefully that'll make the piece more flexible. If that don't work I'd be interested in picking one up to replace it. Will these units have a similar issue(excusing mine in case the original buyer flexed mine to much or something, I've seen a few threads where people were asking for help with the same issue).

It was a nice touch haha, I think the original owner asked hoping it would increase the value of the diffuser, and in turn the car. After I got the body I found all kinds of trick *** **** done all throughout the wiring everywhere you could imagine. I'd like to know just what he was thinking with how badly a lot of the stuff was done on it. I have never personally seen a worse car underneath than this one was.

Just going off this thread I think we have three. As soon as we lock down a car to take in and get started we'll take orders, then when we hit ten start production and after our first finished piece is done and we post pictures the price goes up so we can actually make some profit (eventually lol)...

Hey 6LE, I purchased one of these diffusers awhile back and just now installing it. Do you have any tips on how to get the diffuser to conform to the rear bumper's contour? The diffuser is too straight and rigid and seems as if the 3M adhesive won't be enough to "bend" it to shape.
Not to get too off topic but is the front lip (I believe it's ZR1-inspired) that Chaman photo shopped a possibility? I believe that would peak many people's interest as it's another option for those who like the no-longer-in-production WW lip and not as gaudy to attract those who weren't big fans of the WW lip.
