Little project I've been doing the past 5 weeks or so. Diffuser under my RB Diffuser. /insert Xzibit meme.

is it just me, or does it look off center? my eyes might be going bad or something lol

look interesting, but next time take photos in the sun, or bump the exposure in post so we can see it better.

that is sick! theres no contact issues with lower rear control arms when the car is jacked up? also do you have anything to monitor temps in ur diff?

that is awesome... do you have any idea how much weight it adds? also do you plan to powder coat it?

Thanks. No issues at all with the LCA's. The lowest point of the car is the exhaust bend below the rear subframe, which the panel clears by 10mm.
The LCA's when jacked up and drooping clear the panel by 15-20mm. Lowest point of the diffuser(near axis of LCA's) is 90-95mm from the tarmac.

Rear overhang of course is a whole other issue lol.. But if anyone's ever driven lowered car with long front overhang, it's pretty much the same, but not as bad.
Rear strakes are piss easy to replace anyway.

yeah i hear ya, my diffuser drags....alot lol. been thinking about making aluminum panneling to cover more of the subframe as well. this just makes me want to do it even more.

Wonderbar · 05-21-2015, 09:48 AM

Hell yeah man. That's awesome.
