Rear Bumper/diffuser on Mercury Racing Project Demo Car?
Does anyone know what combo (rear bumper & diffuser) this mercury z33 has?
Also anyone have more pics of it?

It's not oem. Look at the license plate.... And it's not a Top secret rep diffuser.. The vortex generators are huge on this one and the diffuser in general is larger.

i still think it is a chopped oem bumper, and they look huge because there is no bumper down there by it

I hear what azn is saying but I think trav is right in that it is an OEM bumper... Just not a USDM OEM Z bumper.
But that diffuser is definitely custom based on the mounts and how low/wide it hangs.

IMO, it's an OEM bumper but the diffuser could be one off. Many race parts are once off

I have yet to see a diffuser that I like or would put on my car. Plus I do not see the benifits of one besides added weight. Please don't say aerodynamics, no one is driving a foumula car here.
