These pics are like looking at a tree trunk from 1 ft away.

Can't really tell what the tree looks like.

When are we going to have some pictures from an appropriate distance
and angle instead of uninformative close ups of this or that?

Guess its a nice piece for the "looks" crowd. Does this just cap over the rear bumper?

I'm sure you've quoted but how much? And does this just bolt up to the stock bumper? And go with stock exhaust?

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

Default Lol!!!!!
It seems that the pictures are TOO CLOSE! or TOO FAR! or TOO THIS! or TOO THAT!... I have the non CF version and I am pleased with the product. Chances are, if it is taking more information and pictures than has been provided on the three or four threads about this Diffuser then IT MAY NOT BE FOR YOU! We have been waiting for over a year for this part and now that its here it's nice to have it on the car. The positive feedback that I have received has been OFF THE CHART. (And I'm a Toyota salesman). I hope to replace mine with the CF version in the next month or two. Rob and Pete have done a GREAT JOB on this part. But its not for everyone. I think that if I had a 50TH anniversary car I would not have put one on....

So
Satin Black is hard to see.
Post some pictures from this portrait perspective view
perhaps a little lower but not on the ground camera
or the other side and we will love you for it.

Thanks
Couldn't post this in a reply for some reason.
I lightened it up to see the shape better.
Looks very nice... good and plumb.
