Cool Hmmm...Crazy Idea

I was looking at this Camaro on ebay on saw those little spikey things Evos', and even some mustangs that i've seen recently, on the rear bumper. Which is when i thought to myself, how will that look on our cars, and by "our" i mean both Camaro's and Trans Ams?....Anyone dare to photoshop



By the way heres the camaro i saw on ebay...

I couldn't do it, but there was someone on here or LS1.com that photoshop'd something like that on their T/A.....just cant remember off hand whom it was!

I think it would look kinda interesting if done right on a camaro or t/a!

You can get a ground effect that makes your bumper look like that on a camaro.

I asked a similar question last week... This is the only pic I have... I think it would have to be done really well to look good. I just went with a CME valence instead.

Ok back to the diffuser, I would MAYBE run one should I decide to enter an Open Race event. But then again the F-bodies aerodynamics are proven to ~200mph as is.

Agreed, the rear diffusers main purpose is to split (diffuse) the air going beneath the car and out the rear to help keep the car straight at high speeds. Its functionality would increase with speed but how often will you go 200mph except on a track...
