If I were doing it, it'd be full car width, and it'd have to be in conjunction w/ a flat bottom on the car to get the full effect.

It doesn't look like it would do much to me. Is the vented rear bumper part of the package? It's made by Greenwood I see. Give them a call and see what they say about it!

That is really not a diffuser. It's just something to tack on your car to make it look somewhat different.

Good for looks (subjective), wont do anything for you on the track though.

it does go back a ways and connect to the subframe. I figured it would smooth it out some, of course not as much as a full width one, but there just dosnt seem to be one to buy. All I see are gay ZR1 to a C5 conversion bumpers...and that is more for looks than anything
