Diffuser.....

[MattNova]

Correct Forum :D

right im after a rear diffuser that will just fit (no modification prefered) to a standard GTe rear bumper. the reason being is because i have le-cat skirts and abyss front bumper, now the back looks very high :oops: what do you rekon would look best and be easy to fit???oh i also have a peco 3" tail pipe, so there would have to be room.

cheers

[MattNova]

ANYONE!! :(

[Ste L]

don't think you can buy an of-the-shelf one...
try a renault or seat on, you'll have to cut it down though

[MattNova]

someone told me that a saxo r&a diffuser would fit.
do you rekon there is any truth in this or not?

R&A make a diffuser for the nova, same as the saxo one, but its for Mk2's and GSI's

[MattNova]

wel i got a gte rear bumper, i know its not the gsi, but is there much of a difference?

[Ste L]

yea they are quite a bit different, GSI's virtually the same as a MK2, you could probably cut&shut it to fit, but im not to sure

[Dpnova]

dony know about onto a mk1 bumper but on a mk2 you can put a corsa front splitter on the back

[MattNova]

has anyove got a pic of the corsa front splitter? cuz i aint got a clue what they look like :oops: well i have just sent an e-mail to the preople at R&A Online asking if they make any for the nova, or if the saxo one would be hard to fit. waiting for a responce

[Ste L]

just another idea...

my mates old nova used to have the rear GTE lip on the very bottom of the Mk1 bumper, not where it usually goes, but screwed to the bottom, and that look alright, and made the back quite low aswell

it usually goes where it is on the pic, but on my mates it was at the ver bottom of the bumper,

that flick just covers the lower part of the bumper

[MattNova]

oh rite i think i get u now. 1 problem my car has the gte bumper, but when i brought it, it didn't have the 'lip' :( can one of these be purchased?

[Ste L]

if its not got the lip its basically a mk1 bumper... have a look round the scrap yards, shouldn't be that hard to find one

[epo]

why not just fit the aybiss rear bumper its a gsi rear bumper with the saxo rear diffuser on it

[MattNova]

im not that fond of them, if i was to fit one of them, i would have to cut a hole in the middle for a centre exit exhauste because that is the only way that i like them and then buy a centre exit exhaust:(
