Thank you for the inspiration to do this. Ive always wanted to cut off the fake diffuser but didnt want all the open space.

I like how your version more space is taken up in the center area where mine seems to have alot of extra space due to trying to mate it up with the verus diffuser which is just straight accross.

I bought the same glue as you but ended up using titanium rainbow bolts to mount it up as I needed bolts to pull it into position





Near perfect circles

Looks pretty cool. It might look better with the grid work being black though.

Good work.

I would probably paint the "background" black as well.

It does look good.

Yep Im going to paint the mesh the same grey as everything else. The shiny mesh is too much.

Yeah I painted it body color but going to do a flat black so its hidden and hopefully the Exhaust and swaybar ect will show through the grey mesh better.


Thanks for the honesty everyone

painted the mesh matching grey and the background flat black blends in much better
