He took measurements on my '07 a couple of weeks ago; I haven't had a chance to talk with Jordan since though. I imagine they're ready or almost ready to be installed on my car. If they are ready I'll try to head out to see him next weekend and will post up pictures afterwards. I think the AP2 BMC covers should be almost done too!

Is there any news on the full underbody diffuser/front splitter? Alloy Craft is working on one right now, and saying they should have a finished product by summer, I'd like to stick with Gladman since I already have his rear diffuser, but if nothing comes out before Alloy Crafts I'm thinking I may need to switch.

Someone/Anyone have any updates on this?

Anyone install this diffuser with the Q300 exhaust? I am having a little rubbing issue. The second two bolt flange is touching the diffuser.

Ya looks like I'l probably be selling my GP diffuser then and go with AlloyCrafts full undertray. Too bad.
Oh well shouldn't be too hard to sell anyways.

i have both.
no rubbing here.
IIRC we placed few extra shims between the tiebar and the diffuser to get more space.

this is how it looks with Invidia Q300:





notice thise 2 "silver" shims between the difuser sheet and the holder bracket which attached to the round beam.
those shims add a clearence exactly needed.
