Thumbs up Got DAMD? and varis.

After waiting for a few weeks for my JDM tyte carbon pieces, they finally came!!! I wanted something a little different from the top secret diffusers that have been pretty popular lately.

authentic DAMD rear diffuser.




varis exhaust heat shields



I was skeptical about the varis heat shields fitting with the diffuser, but the guy who sold it to me (zdirty3) assured me it would fit. It was a little tricky getting the heat shields to fit with the diffuser, since there were some clearance issues, but fortunately, the guy who mounted them for me did some slight modifications to the diffuser to make it work with the shields.

Since its been raining so much, youre only gonna get to see my Z with my beautiful garage in the background

I'll snap some better pics whenever it stops raining..

I like the DAMD sideskirts cause they'd match pretty well with the rear, but i dont know how easy it woudl be to get my hands on those.

I like Seibon's new 06+ cwest replica lips, and Id like to have a blitz spoiler too (even though alot of people have it) but it looks damn good!

My car mod budget is pretty nonexistant right now...so that might take some time.

Yeah, you use rivets. If you place it right on your bumper, it might not look like the fitment is that great, but thats what the rivets are for.

Just put some of the double sided tape on the edges, then palce it onto the bumper. after that, CAREFULLY mark out points where you want to drill. It only comes with two predrilled holes on the bottom.

Take your time since youre gonna want them to look symmetrical. Just make sure you position rivets in areas that would "flex" the carbon fiber to make it conform to the bumper so you dont have any gaps. Then just rivet it on. Id suggest getting a shop to do it if you dont want to drill it and potentially crack it or mess up.
