I thought I was the only one who put the L on the left side, then saw it fit better on the right, so I assumed the L meant left side standing in front of the car, lol.🤣

That makes sense since the width of the diffuser is 1”.

Wickd, another thing that bugged me was the template printing. It’s upside down. I guess I am too detailed oriented or just OCD (if that’s the right term).

At least they got the template sides right. My instructions didn’t even mention an L or R, just a 1 or 2 which was no where on the fins.

I purchased my Laguna blue 2014 vert from Macmulkin last summer. I think the diffuser is ACS composits ? The front splitter, grill and side skirts are ACS Composits. I noticed a gap on the right side middle blade. Maybe a normal imperfectiion in these after market diffusers?
