Looks great but do you notice a $350 difference in the way the car drives?

I feel a slight difference, but it is more for the looks. Even the most expensive diffuser will just be for looks on our car unless it has been highly modified and set up for racing. Not every mod will add horsepower or reduce weight. It just depends on what you are looking for. For me it was well worth the money spent over a fiberglass or carbon version.

He is still working on side pieces, just no time to work on them now. I did see the strut tower bar. I have one on order in the wrinkled red to match the cooling plate I purchased from him. Look for that write up in the coming weeks.
pics as soon as you can. I have the red cooling plate and was going to order the bar but I'm not sure if it'll be too much red.

Will do

Great price. The center piece looks great. I am waiting to see the side pieces developed. I want the complete package.

Look nice, he should change the mounting screws to black screws so i'll be less visible from the rear.

This should be an easy piece. I will see what he thinks.

I like the screws being silver, but with a little paint, anyone can cover them up.
