Thanks for the kind words, ****. I am currently working on another one. i appreciate everyone's input, both negative and positive even though I don't consider any of them negative, just constructive criticism. No one really said "Hey that sucks" without a reason and I appreciate that. I will do my best to make it more realistic and less Bruce Wayne (or mad max). I Should have it up and rendered by 5 (central time). As for buying my design, don't worry about it. I'll give them to you for free if you really like them.
Thanks again
That would be really cool, however I am unsure if you mean the idea, or the actual product, built, and ready to be installed, if you are talking about the product, I would at least want to pay for the prooducts used to create the item, like the carbon fiber, etc
Otherwise you'd be giving an item you put money into away, I could understand you giving away prototypes etc for people to test the product. I just want to be sure were are talking about the same thing, cause I would not be able to create the product from a design, or a mold even, I don't have the equipment.
I suppose I'm alright if your are willing to make the product and send for free for testing purposes if money is not an issue for you, but again, this is something that is hard for me, in good conscience, to take for free, unless you are certain on doing so.
Im no expert on this either, but if you were to mount this upside down from the way its made now, wouldn't it actually serve its purpose? Aside from the many fins...
Alright so I came up with a new concept. I'm not going to do it in solidworks until I get a good opinion on it. I did some research and I have a better idea of how these are supposed to be made now. I tried to keep it simple, hope it doesn't look terrible when I'm finished.
This is the bigger one that runs all the way across. The part underneath the fins and the mesh backing is the "tummy". This part covers the exhaust and runs underneath the chassis. This part will have to be separate from the diffuser and probably have to be custom fitted depending on your setup.
Here is a smaller version of that I wanted to try.
Which one do you like the best? Hate both of them? Let me know!

Reason: descriptions
Also @noquestionz, here is my idea for yours. It would be a pain in the *** to make since I don't know your aftermarket dimensions, but it would be doable. Design-wise, what do you think?

Wow, that actually looks pretty neat,
but I have a couple questions,
1 is the center part going to be like mesh or something of the sort to allow air to flow through?
2 I noticed the exhaust tips are a lot different on your image, on my car the tips have and upside down u kind of shape cutout around the exhaust tips, and with your diffuser I would have to locate them a couple inches lower somehow (id probably have to take them off the rear hangers) so can you try to find an image of that kind of rear bumper and fit.the diffuser with that style?
I do like this design, definitely heading the right way, just feel its a bit thick and may scrape a lot.
Yeah from what I understand, it's that way so that any air that does get inside of the diffuser can escape and not have drag. Like I said, everyone's setup would be different, so I guess maybe you could get longer hangers? Also, I forgot to answer your reply earlier, but unfortunately I couldn't just give you one. Being a college student, I probably will barely have the budget to make my own. I'd be happy to give the design to you or someone that could make you one.

yeah that's what I figured, and why I asked, but would it be possible to pay you for the materials etc to make it? Since you know a place to get them made, I don't know of any place around me and doubt it would be easy information to find lol.
And this is the best pic I could find for what I'm talking about :
I wouldn't say familiar, I'm a newbie and I'm still learning as I go. That second diffuser took me about 4 hours to make from design to render. I didn't do it simply because I didn't think about it. It wouldn't be too hard to go back I guess but I like the edgy feel. Yes a straight 6 is lovely. I always liked the one I had in my Cherokee.
Leafjerky, I dig the look of the one you put on my car, except for the "mesh center". I'm at work and conveniently enough, that was the only picture I could see HAHA!!
I could see that design causing drag though. I already have enough "lift" since I went with the GReddy Evo 2 making a huge pocket for air to collect in. I don't notice it during my cruises but anything I do from this point forward would have to have function (and form as a by product imo) I have included a picture of the GReddy exhaust from the bottom to see what you'd be working with... This does NOT have the INGS rear though
this thing looks sooooo need for speed underground 2 ......i hate it.
What a contribution!
Srs tho, if you didn't get some greater love for cars from NFSU2 and the ability to put 3 way splitting hoods and neon on everything, you are the hated one!

For real man, NFSU2 was dope, that's what started my love for 350z, 240sx, Audi tt and the skyline... That skyline was bad tho, with some of the unique parts that thing was fasst.
240 was the only thing you could top off if you get all the unique performance parts on it though...

That game was great.
