For custom ones do you use a AutoCAD .dwg file and dxf it to a cnc type machine? How much for a custom on if I send you the file?</TD></TR></TABLE>
Thanks. Yes we can accept a dwg or dxf cad file. A custom design is $75 no matter how intricate.

please people, stop calling these holes in your bumpers "diffusers" because they arent. Diffusers are on IRL, F1, LeMan, Enzo's etc. They are tunnels under the car used to decreasing the velocity of the air which creates a pressure difference over the rear of the car and therefore downforce over the rear tires with very little penalty in increased drag. Putting holes in your bumper with a hole saw or with a peice of carbon will not have the same affect.

Really? At 100-150mph the rear bumper cover on any cars causes lift and drag at speed, especially when the bumper support is gone. By installing a "diffuser" you will reduce lift. Wouldn't you agree that when you REDUCE lift on any car you can't help but INCREASE your downforce numbers? I think that is simple enough. So diffuser design has the same end result as the diffuser on a Formula or Sports Prototype. Granted the diffusers on those cars create negative downforce, but now we are mincing words about how much downforce has to be created to be considered a diffuser. I don't think thats a valid argument.
On another point if you want to get **** abou it a diffuser would be something that can diffuse, correct? Look at the Webster's definition below.
Main Entry: 2dif·fuse
Pronunciation: di-'fyüz

I think a sport compact diffuser does permit air to spread out freely. Or am I wrong about this? I think this is exactly what it does...

For those that need the more traditional shape. They feature slight elipse shaped cutouts. I know some people aren't fond of the other design. This certainly looks better than a cut bumper cover IMO.
Our diffusers now come with black powder coated rivets. Try finding those at your local hardware store!

and of course install instructions.
One last thing. We offer custom cut diffusers with logos/race team names etc. IM me for details.

I definaytely like this design!!! Looks great!! Same price at $125 as the other design?? I will probably order one within about a month or so.
