I presume by your reply means that it will not fit "as is" with the TS rear bumper and that if I want to make it fit I can invest a lot of time and money and do custom fabrication on it.

If you modified my aunt and sewed a pair of ***** on her she'd be my uncle, but if someone asked me if my aunt is a man I'd simply answer, "No".

I suppose my response should have been "I don't know if this will fit the Top Secret rear skirt." I bought this diffuser knowing that I was going to have to do some modification to make it mount up properly to my Zele rear bumper. I have never mounted one to a stock rear, let alone a Zele, let alone a Top Secret rear. My thought? It can be made to fit anything as long as the buyer is willing to accept that it is not a direct bolt-up application. I would have had to drill into my Zele bumper as well as trim some of the diffuser.
That said, I don't want to mislead anyone. I know this can be made to fit anything, but I don't want to deal with the headache of someone e-mailing me looking for a refund after they buy this and realize it is not a simple 1-2-3 bolt-on installation... Some modification will be necessary. After doing a test-fit/mock-up to my rear bumper, I do not think the modification needed will be anything extreme or overly complicated. I guess that is the best answer I can provide.
That's a good explanation. Thanks. I'm of the mind that generally when someone asks if "X" will fit model "X", it's implied that they're asking if the part is a direct fit without any modification.
When people like me say that the AIT kit is a POS because it doesn't fit, it obviously can be modified to make it fit well. But it doesn't out of the box. That's what I meant.

Thank you for the bumps/questions...

But not in this thread though, I just honestly wanted to know if this part would fit my car with the TS half bumper and Bill gave me a unsatisfactory BS answer that "anything fits if you make it". I wasn't irritated at all. If I were, you'd know for sure. I don't think Bill was wither, I think he understood where I'm coming from.
But nice of you to notice and point it out. I hope Pujols leaves.

Yet another free bum for your part Bill.
I have been referred to (sometimes correctly) as a A-hole at times. And I get a bit crunk about things sometimes so you are correct on both counts.

The first post of the thread I state that the diffuser is not made for a G. It is made for a Z. Thus, there will be some modification necessary, as simple as new brackets most likely. I put that out there. When I was asked if this diffuser will fit on your aftermarket bumper, what kind of an answer did you expect? I certainly didn't lie - it can absolutely fit with some minor modification. You can put it on a Dodge Ram pick-up truck if you want to be creative...

I was going to buy an authentic R34 Top Secret diffuser and retro-fit it to my Zele rear, but decided on the Z diffuser instead. That would have needed modification, as well. The Bulletproof S2000 is sporting this same R34 Top Secret diffuser. If asked the question, "Does it fit the S2000?" I suppose, according to your criteria for a satisfactory, non-BS answer, the proper response would be 'no' because it is not a direct bolt-on part. However, with some minor trim work, I think it fits pretty nicely...
(As with this part, I would not sell that diffuser, either, without disclaiming from the beginning that is not made for an S2000.)

That said, Bump...
I'm surprised this is still here! Members must not be aware this is one of the very few brand new diffusers you can get in our country. Someone here should buy themselves a christmas gift before its gone! None of the 370 guys are ready? ? ?

I have a guy with a Z interested. I am waiting to hear back from him, but until I receive payment, it is still available...

Also, I am contemplating selling my Amuse exhaust if anyone is interested.
