    Diffuser to smooth that air flow. Under panning too!

    Less lift and drag at the rear (more downforce)

    Less DUST on the tailpanel. Really! A lot less.....

    That's a beautiful example - love the look of that car. Those BBS wheels make such a difference, I wish I had a set of those myself.

    I have no idea what those go for, but that is one of the best looking diffusers I've seen.

    That diffuser looks awesome, and the prices are reasonable to boot.

    My question is will just blades like that help keep the rear of the car cleaner like the full race style does?

    I am not sure about the sideways movement of those blades, I think you might bend one from time to time?

    One thing for sure, they don't stick out the back like the Autoform diffuser.

    I sent him an email. He's a CNC guy that does a couple of viper things on the side. He's in California. Here's his website...CNC Unlimited. Select Dodge Viper Parts and you'll see the pictures of what he makes. I like the rear diffuser and side splitters.

    I guess you have to ask yourself if function or feature is what your after. Does not look like these would function as well as lets say the Autoform diffuser would. They do have a nice clean look though.

    I thought all the other manufactures are doing the same thing. Oh well....maybe I'm wrong.

    I thought that as well.
    Hey slitherv10, you quoted a post that is not there somehow. Odd. Somehow I think that was attack on my statement about pricing.

    It is expensive, but it's also very nice stuff. They all look to be very high quality and CNC'd so it's not going to be cheap. My real question is the function, if you get a piece that nice that actually works the price starts to come in to line. I didn't buy this car because its cheap and honestly expect to pay. If its too much for me, I just don't buy it.
