Rear diffuser with BN?

Who has pictures of rear diffuser and under tray setups on FC? Any constructive ideas? Even ditch rear kit and use factory rear bar?

I've already cut out the section between the exhaust outlets on my BN kits, and now that the whole trunk has been chopped out for fuel cell I want to take advantage of all the space. Come at me!

I got mine about a month ago

The spare tire section stops stock body cars from raising it any higher than what I have.

I think it would be interesting to see an fc with a deffuser and the outer sections of a bn kit on. from the wheel well to the exhaust holes. but the middle cut open with deffuser in there.

**** you Buckey.

He asked for pics of rear diffuser and BN. I showed multiple angles so he gets and idea of what it looks like.

Your post contributed nothing other than showing you're a bitch.

All the important stuff isn't half assed. This car hasn't been down in 5 years. Driven to Sevenstock multiple times and many hours of drifting and road race.

Pretty bodykits and knock off wheels aren't everything. Unless you like car shows.

woah, settle down their kids.

I want to do diffuser, so I will. just want to get some usage out of the empty nothingness under the trunk area. My car is also full black now, no sponsors etc.

This^ it will look cool for sure. Andrew has some pics somewhere of it cut out. It will look nuts if you get crazy and do the sheetmetal/aluminum style similar to the LOW BRAIN dudes.

Coming from the guy who took time out of his life to paint domo on your hood... Corey you're just a ****** who talks **** online and gets all amped on your own little ****. Your car has no reason to break. You dont drive it hard enough to break it. I've seen. SUP. Nerd...

Sucks about the sponsor support, but that OG black photo without the front glass is my all time favorite. Looks crazy. Do the diffuser for sure! Depending on how big you make it - it will help keep tire smoke out of the car (with a firewall) post picsssss! Wanna see this thing

looks pretty cool. I hate the bn sports with the center cut out. but I think it could be pulled off with the diffuser.

Imamura had that **** at some point, sort of. Just the outer pieces. Hard to find photos of his car where they haven't fallen off already.

i think if your gonna go BN u have to have something. the rear the diffuser looks funny on the rear with such extravagant skirts, maybe if the rear bumper sides were used as valances like the photoshop that joshuaput made. i actually seen it done and it actually looked really good, i know function over form is best when some of us actually run our cars hard and acutually use the parts for what they where made for... lol my kit is soo thrashed that i gave up trying to repair the small cracks and tears, now zipties are more practical
