I still want a carbon, stainless or aluminum finisher to run on the muffler side with a tucked bumper. Guess i will have to try make one myself someday.

? Has anyone done a tuck then thrown on any aftermarket diffusers? If so which one?

I am interested bc debating adding one after I tucked mine and unsure of fittment,but also may go the direction of chroming/wrapping the midpipe thats exposed.

You can use 91% Isopropyl alcohol or liquid Dawn in soapy water or any car wash solution.

My guess is that the bumper will be distrorted a bit so therefore you'll probably see some gaps here & there when applying the diffuser!
Before putting on diffuser, make sure you clean your bumper very throughly with 91% Isopropyl alcohol especially where the 3M tape will be applied.

Well the tape held up for maybe a day. Where did you all apply the tape to, may be I did it wrong. I applied it on the metal bumper support

Greddy Ti-C single canister with bumper tuck

- ended up cracking my paint doing the tuck because i completely forgot the bumper was repainted a couple of years ago after someone rear ended me (and the new paint doesn't have flex agents like the OEM paint i assume)

- went back and did the tuck with zip ties so i didn't have to tuck it all the way up and create more cracks

Tried the 3m that didn't really hold so I used zip ties on my clips.
