^I agree, I bottomed it out slightly, the other day. It sounded much worse than it was; no damage but it caused the diffuser to squeak like a mofo on every single little crack in the road. It is just VERY annoying with top down i can hear it squeaking constantly. Almost sounds like a old car with squeaky wheel bearings...I think it is right where the 2 "plates" overlap, I can one screw/washer combo was bent slightly, and when i lightly touch the rear bumper it gets very squeaky. Only when I touch the bumper or the diffuser, though.

im pleased to announce that Jordan has already started a new group buy for the diffuser!! Many have been waiting in this nows your chance!

Also the first section of the covers are now availible, this group buy is over soon and for those who want to see the fuse box side to come out as well should go ahead and invest now on the first half because it will speed up the process...

Here is the link for the group buy on the diffuser.

I'm still amazed at how many people seem to manage to bottom out with this diffuser. I have been over here in Germany for a few months now and have taken some ridiculously large speed bumps and inclines waiting for the inevitable scrape everytime and haven't gotten it yet. Granted I am stock height but still. As far as the squeaking did that start after you bottomed out or has it always done it. If its always done it I would check how tight your fasteners are, I have had mine around the Nurburgring 8 times now and up to 140mph and haven't heard so much as a single squeak. I still hope to get around to some legitimate high speed testing but haven't found the time or conditions to allow.

The squeaking started after I bottomed out. I have discovered it lodged a bolt loose from one of the brackets and that was causing the metal on metal to rub and squeak!
