Rotoryexterem diffuser pro replica?

Does anyone know if there is a company that has a replica, of the rotoryextreme carbon fiber rear diffuser pro. Or am I just going to have to spend the crazy amount of $850 that rotoryextreme wants for it.

Try the for sale section.

$850 is cheap compared to what the ORIGINALS cost.

The rotary extreme diffuser IS the replica. The original was made by RE Amemiya. And Rotary Extreme's price is a hell of alot cheaper than RE-A's, so be thankful. Plus, the quality is great.

I'm gonna give a for Chuck at Rotary Extreme.

Thanks for the info guys, I have a c-west rear bumper, anyone put the diffuser on a FD that has that rear bumper. I had another thread on this and someone showed me a picture of an FD that had the diffuser on a c-west rear, but did not know if any cuting was involved.

Actually that diffuser was developed/produced by Top Secret for Amemiya - and the retail on an authentic diffuser is $900.

If we do a group buy on the pro diffuser, I can drop the price to as low as $550 for the carbon fiber pro diffuser. If you are interested, I will talk to Ryan to set up a group buy.

uh, you can get the ORIGINAL one for $800 from rxecret7.com.

You want to pay $50 more for a knockoff? Go for it!

Listed as 69,000 YEN, so roughly $690 right of RE-Amemiya's website.
