Wrapping the rear diffuser
Just had this mod done and I think it adds a more aggressive look without being over the top. Decided to leave the red vents alone to add more dimension to the look. Hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable weekend.

That really sets off the back end. Well done.

how did they cut the wrap?... I wondered if a machine does it or if they freehand it, in that case I would be worried about them cutting into the paint or having uneven edges but yours looks good... I have thought about doing this to mine, it seems far more durable than plastidip, not permanent should I decide to remove it, and also won't be very expensive

I did the same to my silver coupe about 3 years ago. I did gunmetal grey to compliment my Forgestar f14's of the same color. Still holding up well even after driving in the rain and sitting in the hot sun all day. I had the rear insert sections done too so they would blend in more.

Thanks for all the kind reply's. Wanted to show a mod that others might want to do with there Vetts. Almost every mod done to my car came from others on this forum posting what they have done to there cars.
