Hey everyone,

as work on my „Blue Devil Z06 – Project” is proceeding, I received some updated pictures of something, that I wanted to have on the car for a very long time… a carbon fiber diffuser…
These are only teaser pics and I don’t have any others yet, but I wanted to share them with you anyway. My idea was to fill the exhaust gap with something unobtrusive, yet still unique and special.
The Austrian Shop who did the work nailed it down exactly the way I wanted it. Anyway, here are the pics.

-Alex

well, if there is enough interest, I'm sure there would be a way to bring this diffuser to the US market.

I think people are getting confused by what it says on the license plate.....FU in America is short for a curse... so your license plate saying FU US has people thinking you're cursing at the US.

Anyway guys I'm pretty sure that FU doesn't translate to German so I don't think people need to worry about it.

Back to the diffuser....AMAZING PIECE, first one I've liked for the C5.
