I'm assuming this is photoshopped right?

If this is available it's awesome looking. God the breathless one is kinda gross looking.

Yep that was photoshopped (I believe I used one of Ferrari's various diffusers).

Looks good. Would be nice for someone to get into a tunnel and sell a balanced package for a beginning road racer.

I found this and it has lots of good information:

Since nothing diffuser-like is available for the C5, besides the IMO completely ugly one from BPP, I did have my own diffuser built.
Nothing wind tunnel tested though. Just something to enhance the look of the rear part of the car while not requiring heavy modifications to the rear bumper or the exhaust to make it fit… It’s made of carbon fiber too. Unfortunately I don’t have any better pics than these at the moment.
