I just filled in the one on the fin. FW also has two fins that are ~1" deeper than the center two. I trimmed mine so that they were all the same.

Good to know. Do you have pics on your IG showing a good angle on this diffuser?

I blacked out the fasteners & I also ran a bead of sealant where the fins join the main section which really improved the look and stopped some nuisance vibrations.

I’m not too surprised this thread didn’t gain enough traction and actually got anywhere. I don’t blame the OP for not pursuing anything. Money talks. Unfortunately, part of the territory of owning a rare sports coupe with such limited production numbers as ours is simply accepting the fact that most stuff is going to be custom and high priced. Considering there just isn’t enough demand to overlook the startup production costs. When people start saying prices for $200-300 it starts to sound like Honda Civic or Integra prices no offense. Personally I wouldn’t spend the time and energy to do the R&D to make a diffuser for such low margins unless I just had tons of money and doing this on my spare time. People’s time and talent costs money and just put yourself in their shoes and see how much you value your time. I love this car and the community for the most part are great, but at the same time if you can’t pay to play don’t get in the first place. Just because you managed to afford the car doesn’t necessarily mean you can afford to maintain it let alone start modding it. Personally I was going to buy a Varis diffuser, but was curious if this went anywhere since the rear spoiler they made turned out awesome. I’d be willing to spend the same amount of money I would on the Varis if this one turned out even better quality and function. I guess it’s just me, but generally I feel anything for our cars will typically start at a grand as a starting point and I’ve accepted that. Hopefully this post might spark some interest back up and get the right people in a group buy or some sort of list for production.
