when the air flows under the car, its get trapped in the bumper, holes or a diffuser allows the air to pass through

Most of the guys cut the holes so far up it does nothing except look stupid..In NJ 99% of modded hondas have those rediculous holes on street cars..You'd be better off taking off the entire bumper or fabricating a "real" difruser ..
