Thanks guys. I will have these next week. As soon as I get them I will get pix posted. We can make a custom diffuser for the C6, and just use an OEM one to build off of, if there was interest in it.

They would be ALOT cheaper than whats available at the moment.

I would be interested in a custom piece but it would need to keep the reverse lights.

Thanks guy's. I do want to make something custom. Dont get me wrong the BPP diffuser looks good, but if I make something, im going to try and make it where it's less bulky.

I will just need to know if you guy's want to keep the reverse lights and if it should be made for 4 tips rather than 2 (im guessing 4)

Is that BPP unit functional??

I don't see the point in a custom unit unless it has some added functionality.

Yes you should make it just like this but tone it down and make it to fit 4 pipes and for the norm lights to work with it. That one goes under the car to help down force you should also make it like that.And lets not 4get the carbon fiber.If you do this you will sell a lot of them.

Do you have any weight comparisons, OEM vs your carbon fiber version?
