Still needing to smooth out everything...but you get the idea.

The front section of this piece is capped off and angled to divert the air down. The section behind the wheels are also capped off so that there isn't air being trapped.

At last, pics! Now I do have a question about the exhaust section. Would it be wise to cover the exhaust section or leave it open like you did? Any benefits to this?

I understand that many people have aftermarket exhausts, but I am trying to keep it as stock as possible.

Thanks again for the pic!

Going just for the look and not the functionality... to each their own.

Another question I have is how you mounted the forward section of the diffuser. Will drilling be required or do you have a fabb'd up bracket?

It is looking very promising in both form and most of all function..... I think the wait is resulting in a worthwhile quality product that will prove to benefit performance and fuel mileage, looking good is icing on the cake that I can't justify spending money for alone.... It is like buying shoes that look great but don't have soles.

The piece isn't fully bolted up on the out edge...it'll line up properly.

what do you mean by off centered?

I think it's better to leave this area open....this is a two piece diffuser.

Leaving this opening will allow everyone to use this piece without having to modify based on the exhaust they have.

I think because there are three fins instead of four becasue of the exhaust has to be there it look unsymmetrical. Maybe off centered was the wrong word. PM sent

JDP Great Job! I have just a few more peices I need to sell before I can purchase your rear lip. Do you have a unit price for both the lip and diffuser? you probably do I just read over it....
Also, will my spoon axel back clear the lip/diffuser?

Would it be possible to get a side profile picture of the entire car? I'm just curious how much lower the rear lip would now sits compared to the sideskirts. None the less, if you already have some made to ship, I would most definitely place an order.
