Rear diffuser now fitted (finally!)

KadeSdad · 06-13-2010, 02:48 AM

Hi Guys

Finally got my Challenge rear diffuser painted and fitted after months of waiting, but luckily it was worth the wait as the diffuser is spot on.

Made from carbon, seemed a real shame to paint but had to be done for my set up.

Thanks for looking guys (sorry about the picture heavy thread!)

Looking very nice indeed!

Looks good!

bape · 06-13-2010, 08:21 AM

very nice job (can't see any gaps)

did you use 3M tape or glue?

Dougie335 · 06-13-2010, 11:05 AM

Nop! don't like it sorry.

Needs some more fins so it looks like a diffuser. Just looks like holes to exit the exhausts.

Looking good Marcus! Shame you had to paint it but can understand why.

M3-FAST · 06-14-2010, 09:35 AM

Could you not have had it wrapped like the roof??

Wouldn't have achieved the same finish mate, plus I am not too sure about the heat issue's of vinyl being close to those tips...
