Autokits rear diffuser - Yes or No? Help me decide
It is not an easy choice for me. It just isn't obviously an improved look to me. I don't know if that is because it's different and I need time to get used to it or what. I think I am going to wrap the roof gloss black. Perhaps after that it will flow better with the car. Right now it just seems out if place to me.
It is currently painted gloss black WITHOUT https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...3a56e24de0.jpg WITH https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...231af3e011.jpg |
honestly i'm torn. i have same color g37, so that's a great example for me to look at, thank you for posting this btw.
i kinda like it, but it may be a bit too aggressive. if you also have a black chin spoiler, do it by all means. but if that's the only aero trim you have, maybe pass. sorry i couldn't be more definitive for you, i'm in the same shoes. :D |

what a lovely mug. :D
ok now i say don't do it at all. if anything, i'm quite partial to OEM black grille. /edit and slight tint. |
Yeah
It's a bit out of place to have one black body part. Sort of. I don't know. Think it will flow better with a black roof wrap. Or painted a different color Matte black Color match.... |

Diffuser only looks good on 07-09 rear bumpers. For 2010+ models it's a waste of money imo. Not that it's ugly, but like you said, hard to justify it as an "improved" look.

Thanks
Thanks for the feedback guys
The wheels are 4 front wheels With 25mm spacers on all. |
I don't care for it. While I agree with the idea of blacking out that recessed area of the lower bumper, the design is all wrong. It establishes a separation of materials too far below the curve of the bumper edge. The end result looks like some kind of dime-store plastic thing slapped on an otherwise clean looking car. I've actually given this a lot of thought over the years, and the only acceptable conclusion would be if you had a black car. Even then, probably not.

did all sedans have the gold fish eye bulge in the tail lights or were some flat?

I’ve given this some thought too as I don’t love the 2010+ sedan rear bumper, but options are fairly limited. Carbon signal has awesome rear spats, but the bumper makes the license plate look bent. Auto kits makes it look like random plastic fins attached.
Another option is the TS-style, but it also has dumb “vortex generators” on the sides. Meh, might just have to vinyl wrap the valence and call it a day |

But that's not what the OP has on his car, so IDK what you're going on about, saywat. Stay on topic, comment on the diffuser for now. |
I like it, but I think it needs some other black parts to tie it together. Otherwise it's a pretty aggressive piece with nothing to support it.
