Twill did you need to get different hardware? I use 1/4 studs make it easier, and how bout 3m tape anywhere?just my 2cents
Where did you use 1/4 inch studs? I used 3M tape around the edge where it touches up against the car. There is a indentation that the tape sits in but its a little too deep.
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.
Hmmm, for the past few months now I really wanted one. But know after seeing them on the car im not to sure if i like it. I don't know if the pics im seeing is the best angle or what. Just looks out of place on a C5. Not saying its not a good product, just not for me. Think ill pass on this for now.
Damn that looks amazing! Just waiting to see if I get my June work bonus before I commit. Still trying to figure out what wing option to go with to finish off the rear end.

How does it look out of place? If anything it updates it I think it a nice mod and quality product for the money and easy to install kinda a no brainer to me but to each there own..

Yea, I know people would say I'd agree that it's really nice because we made/sell them, but I think it looks great! Let's be honest, this is way nicer than just painting the lower portion black.
A little shaping of the C6Z splash gaurds and it's on. I did use the storm window clips on the sides. I also got some 1/4" flange bolts and rubber washers to go behind 1.5" fender washers and used a hex head #8 bolt in the sides instead of using the supplied hardware. Fits like a glove! <br >

Did you use double sided tape on the install? If you did, did you double it up?
You can actually get VHB tape in different size thickness instead of doubling up.
Before I did my install I looked for a thicker double sided tape, I didn't find any that was thicker than what I already had. My diffuser is on the car with a double layer of tape and it is good and tight! If you have a brand or part # for the thicker tape it may help people with future installs.

I did use double sided tape, but it is only attached to the diffuser right now and not the car. If you notice the car is sitting kinda high it's because it has been up on jack stands for about 5 months while I did engine work and other upgrades. I have a different exhaust that I may run on the car and the diffuser will have to come off in order to get the exhaust out so didn't want it stuck permanently just yet.
Im seriously considering drilling a couple small holes through the bumper cover to just use a couple screws to hold the top part to the car. I know that goes against the original design plan but I figure it's going to stay on the car anyway so who cares about a couple small holes behind the diffuser.... anyway it fits awesome and tight even without the tape attached but will need to be secured at some point.
