Breathless Diffuser opinions..hmmm

Hmmm...The pics of the Breathless diffuser for the c5 on the site, what doyou all think as Im on the fence with buying this...Here are my thoughts..

Functionality wise its A+++...theory behind it etc..looks fab!! Now when I saw it on any other color vette, I must say I do NOT like it! Looks like the vette is sitting in a big tub or something.....BUT.....with it on a BLACK vette like in the one photo they have, I think I DO LIKE IT!!!! Looks aggressive on it!

Says will fit about any two pipe exhaust...Mine is the Borla dual stingers...wonder if that fits??

thankfully my 04 is BLACK.....so im thinkin on this!

What are your thoughts on this new piece???????

i think a very toned down version of it would be nice on a aggresively modded car, but it looks so ricetastic on a stockish car.

Sorry, but it reminds me of a baby with a full diaper. Visually adds too much mass in the wrong place. I wonder if it does anything other than lighten your wallet. Maybe on a Honda.
