has anyone on here ever installed one? im going to buy one, but from the looks of it, installation is a toss up.

maybe post a pic of it if you have one on your car :)

ahhgggg. maybe if you owned a 100k time attack machine that never sees street use and you need this to lower your lap time by 1/100th of a second.

its a knock off of the first molding diffuser. mine is real first molding. installation wasn't very difficult if you have the car up in the air, but i hadta modify the brackets and find some different bolts.
(to anyone who is about to hate, first off, fuck off, second, yes i realize it doesn't provide any real benefit, i just like it cuz its pretty)

I was thinking of getting something like that, but now seeing it, it kinda looks too big. IMO
Op... if you like it then get it, dont do shit to your car for other people

someone should try to homemake one.. fiberglass aint too hard to learn, you just need something to mold it from to give shape

iono that looks pretty hot!

id do it if i had money for it.... 4 bills for it isnt reallie worth.
4 bills can buy you a whole fake kit.
but dam your hatch is clean...

not a fan of the hatch or diffuser. but i like them.
all you need is front lip side skirts and how would a rear valence look with it?

hows the rear diffuser look from inside? is it kind of akward having it behind you?

+1 nice car.

sell me ur skirts then bo2o!
i have a xenon lip on the front.
the diffuser scrapes on shit if i'm not careful.
i'm over kits. i've destroyed too many of em, and imho, oem styling is best.

i once got some +20mm front fenders for a S13 from raceonusa that where made out of that FRP crap. it was the worst fitting worst looking fenders i hade ever seen, hell my body man even said the amount of work to make them fit right and look right would be far more than it would be to buy some really expensive nice ones. they make copies of copies, worst body parts ever.

i'd hafta agree with zavala. i got my silvia conversion fenders and hood from them about 5 years ago. terrible terrible fitment, and the sales staff there when i picked em up were entirely useless.

my opinion? if you just street your s13, then this is completely ridiculous. at MOST all you need is a simple aluminum sheetmetal to cover the rear bumper from the bottom(to reduce the parachute effect).

if you HPDE it, then this may help in the straights if its a high speed track.
