I'm sure it's possible, I even considered getting the Bomex kit before deciding I wanted the more rare Erebuni and the diffuser was a consideration. I will say this: there's no reason you can't, but it will most likely have to be custom or heavily modified based off something prefabbed. I'd hate to buy a shineauto diffuser just to hack it up to do this, so if it were me, I'd just start fabricating (after some planning, of course).

Want the diffusor to be functional, or is this a looks thing? What you gonna do about the fact that the Bomex bumper doesn't have moulding design? I think it needs a shaved car to look right?
