Hope you don't mean me!

Mine reminds me of the back to the future car at times. But I LOVE it and the hassle of creating a dual center-exhaust.

But yeah, I say go for anything DIY! I've done a few diffusers for friend's cars. I try to keep to the boring fundamentals of angles/etc, but try to be creative with styling/flowing with the car. One friend had me replicate the WRC diffuser on GD Rally cars... That was a pain in the butt, but totally worth it!

I wish I could personally own a wind tunnel...

And two more, at a more reasonable price point:





Both those are 100% stock off the showroom floor, and don't look that much different than the driveway labs one. Personally I want something that doesn't stick out so much, but it doesn't look ghetto, I just know my car isn't a full time race car so I'd rather something more subtle.

I spent some time and made my own, fully- functioning one for $100. Give or take some rivets.

Thanks for pointing that out to me.

Point was that I didn't install this to look pretty. I installed it because it should lower my lap times around a road course by a measurable amount of time by decreasing drag, removing all the lift the car generates stock and making ~20 lbs of downforce on top of that at 100mph; improving grip from the rear tires. Funny though, I've only ever received compliments about how it looks it in person. Not everyone's taste, I guess.

It's not supposed to flow with the body lines of the car. It's supposed to flow with the underbody of the car and get rid of the parachute created by the rear bumper cover that exists even with the factory suitcase muffler in place.

You know, if bet if you don't like type 1, you're going to love type 2 because everyone has different tastes. Kinda how I can't stand "stanced" cars but others love them.

I will even help walk you through building your own, what is weak sauce is talking trash and not doing anything new or different on your own.
