Can't wait to get them!
I'm having 7.5" x 15" for the front, and 7" x 13" for the back.
Them dub and euro boys would be confused by this idea Colin, they wouldn't understand the idea of drag reduction, (and slight bit less weight) sound like they will be very nice, but dam costly to.

They're costing a fair bit for sure, but considering the weight loss and looks bonus they give, and the fact they are complete one-offs, I think the price is sensible.Quote:

I'm probably going to go with the gold anodised finish.
A few more photos of the diffuser, now fully installed;

looking good Colin, is that a varis universal diffuser ?
i have just emailed you about doors.
It was an EBAY diffuser, apparently for a Honda S2000.Quote:

Might just be the angle but it looks like the front of it is pointed up? You want it flat, so it then curves away upwards. Besides that it looks rather sexy :d
For the moment I've just bolted it directly to the spare wheel well (or what's left of it). So the diffuser may well need adjustment to flatten the angle. I'm planning to look at some further aerodynamics such as a flat floor, so it's all work in progress.Quote:
