Maybe less? The urethane price got dropped a bit... and maybe there will be a pre-order incentive?

Will this diffuser clear larger aftermarket exhaust tips?

How much does the center section reduce exhaust pipe clearance (measurements in reduction in available height and width would help people measure on their current setups)

Rob (Stealth02) told me he had either B&B or it was a Borla with 4 inch tips and there was plenty of room. I don't think most guys are going to go bigger than a 4 inch tip.

Do you happen to know how thick the diffuser is by the exhaust opening?

The material is not that thick at all. I was told when this was made or I believe it's in Robs original thread, but he said the only exhaust the he thinks wouldn't fit is the SLP (the one with the huge weird shaped tips) Lol, guess I shouldn't say weird, but it follows the curve of the lower bumper.

I want one but am skeptical on the installation. Is it possible to create a video to show us how to install them?

Would be interested in a carbon version as well. Would settle for a wrapped CF piece. In reality a $750-1000 CF version would be just as cheap if you factor in prepping and painting the bare urethane.

I was hoping they would have got me one, maybe in a couple days. Trust me though it's super easy. It will literally install in a couple mins.

Hey guys, I sent a bunch of money requests, so check your email to make sure I didn't miss anyone, thanks!

Do you think there'd be any problem with installation if the car had the lower facia reinforcement peices? When installing mine I put a little epoxy on them to make damn sure they couldn't fall out. Not too sure how easy I could remove them.

I've never seen those before. Where do they mount? If it's inside the bumper or the backside, I don't see an issue. This sits directly over the lower indentation on the bumper and the fins just go underneath. As long as they don't block the vents (where these mounting points are) I don't see an issue.

Ok, they mount inside-underneath the lower vent. They do make the lowest part of the facia thicker. But I looked at how this mounts again and it won't make any difference.
