Does anybody make a custom diffuser for the FR-S?
 
I'm looking for a custom diffuser for my FR-S. Carbon fiber would be a nice touch. I just want to replace the diffuser only. I don't want any rear spoiler/diffuser kits or even front end body kits. The stock diffuser is wanky and looks cheap. It probably vibrates like crazy by my Greddy Evo3 exhaust. This was one my few dislikes about the car from the beginning. Now it has been 6 months since the car has been out, and there are various wings, lips, and body kits, but no diffusers. And after seeing other diffusers on other cars at the LA Car Show, it makes me want a better looking and made diffuser on my FR-S even more.

Yeah....you should probably post a pic of what you are talking about seeing as how the part with the backup light/reflector is part of the bumper not a diffuser.

The bumper is around that piece. I was told that was called the diffuser. I'll look it up. But you know what piece I'm talking about and how it is thinnest & ugliest piece of plastic and that is attached poorly.

It is a "diffuser", but it is part of the bumper. It does not come off.

I didn't think the FR-S had a diffuser, but the BRZ did. I could be wrong though. Can you post a pic of the part you're talking about could help get results faster.

I guess it is called the Diffuser cover and looky here. Here is one from Seibon Carbon Part # Seibon RDC1213SCNFRS Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser Cover 12-13 Scion FRS

here's a place to buy one

I guess I kinda answered my own question:bonk: I need to see it on a car with light attached. I still like to see others from different manufactures before I buy one.

It would be nice to see a diffuser cover with a whole different backup light set up and brake light. May be have round backup lights that are spread apart and have the brake light in the middle with a triangle, round or rectangular shape like on a Formula 1 car or the Ferrari F12.

boredom.is.me 12-09-2012 01:25 AM

...sort of like what's already on it? Nah, I'm just messing with you. I really can't see round reverse lights looking any good though.

Freeman 12-09-2012 01:29 AM

Ah I gotcha. I thought that and the bumper was all one piece.
