Default Gauging interest on composite rear vx diffuser

Its the rear dr's side lower rear plastic diffuser that keeps the air from getting trapped in the rear of your bumper....Saves on gas and speed

No need to cut holes in your bumper and look like a ricer.

you can buy these at honda for $55....i am wondering if there would be any interest in having them made out of Carbon Fiber and Fiberglass?

I got mine from Majestic Honda for 30 something.

I'd be interested if something could be done for the muffler side. But it would have to be cheap and ugly. I hate pretty parts.

I was looking for the longest time for a Si/VX replica plastic front lip (or a used one), but now I have a VX.

dont think honda made one for the pass side because i think the size of the stock muffler being so big is supposed to act like it.

The coupe and sedan have longer dimensions from B-pillar and back.
I'd get one off you if I didn't live in this ball-freezing madness climate, fiberglass won't last one winter and crack into pieces...
OEM one looks like rubber

Sorry, fiberglass cracks on the slightest bump under cold climates. You should come see some ricer's bodykits around here during winter.
