Why not go with an oil filter relocation kit. It will move the oil filter so that cutting the diffuser is not necessary.

How do you plan on draining the oil?

I already drilled two holes for the oil drain plug and the oil filter. Oil drain hole is about 2 inches in diameter and the oil filter hole is about 7 inches in diameter.

I already changed oil once and it's kind of messy because you can't remove the oil filter without spilling some oil on the diffuser... But a few wipes would fix it right up~

I already did, but doesn't have any pictures of the holes. I'll take pictures of the holes and post them when I get a chance.

Line is getting shorter on these items , so if this is something you need ASAP, let me know. All pm's answered. Let me know if I missed ya.

haha^ i thought it was funny that it shows off the resevoir so good. i use mine sorta frequently though, i mix in mini cooper concentrate (stolen from work) and it actually gets through the vents and smells good!

sidenote: i noticed the ppw looks great with that bumper, what would you guys think of doing that bumper in black and painting those accents dark grey or a dark bronze to match my work's???

Nexx,

Your car looks so hot! How low is your car?? My car is lowered & am scraping the sides of the bottom of the stock front bumper on driveways etc. How low does the diffuser sit??? & did you cut holes in for changing the oil??

thanks

if you are scraping already wait till you get this. i use to never scrape, now its a daily thing. im more surprised when i dont scrape then when i do now. no biggy, its just a diffuser with no paint and the car sits so damn low now you can even bend down to see under the diffuser to see the scrapes. im lowered on tanabe gf210's about 1.25" drop in the front. the diffuser sits maybe 2 inches off the ground.
