Default Hey C5 diffuser guys ??

Anyone have one Installed and "painted"? Or installed on a black car?
I'm on the fence but some good quality pictures could help me make my decision .
Thanks

I think he was talking about the rear diffuser.

I would do a little R&D on what a diffuser is and what it is
suppose to do. There are few diffuser's , real one's on the
market. There are a few stick-on's (to your bumper) But
a rear diffuser will include a pan that will reach at least to
your rear axle. You will have to ditch the stock mufflers
no room, and maybe the rear quad exhaust. Diffusers are
usually on race cars and the exhaust pipe dumps out at
the rear tire. You could fab a exhaust pipe to the rear as I
have done.
I don't know your intentions on using a diffuser. If it is
just to look good you can find them on the forum but
if it is for function (race) search.. Good luck.

Here is my install thread on my BGM it's almost black.

I can try to get better pics and angles if you want it.

Carbon version looks killer Pete...Nice work!! Seeing it installed will be the tipping point but, I'm heavily in favor of it.

First one installed. Sorry about the "watermark" on the photos, just getting tired of other guys stealing my photos for their sale ad's.
