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

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

snow 05-20-2015 08:19 AM

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.

Wonderbar 05-21-2015 10:48 AM
