Default 1st Moulding Diffuser... Oh Yea

My 1st Moulding rear diffuser finally came in from Adam at Z1auto and the thing is amazing. I snapped some pics before my install which looks pretty straight forward. I'm updating this thread b/c all the links are dead and I never showed completed photos here... I did on another post but I feel it's important to have it here too.

The general installation was a ***** b/c the instructions were horrible and the pics were even worse. Once I was able to put it on with the help of my friend... it all started making sense. You'll need to take off the exhaust muffler to access a small cross point at which you mount 2 mounting tabs. The rest of the vertical tabs mount to pre existing holes in the rear crossmember area.

I will say that a moulding should be included in the kit but you can source one from a 2005 Toyota Corolla S' side skirt assembly.

Out of the box:




Pics from their website:



Completed w/moulding:






Overall the fit was about a 8 with the help of the moulding, finish was a 10 and the "Wow Factor" was 10000000. It's just an amazing piece.

Wow someone finally bought this. It seems like it's been at least 4+ years I've seen these for sale but never heard of anyone buying it.

Quality looks top notch, hopefully fit is good as well.

Very nice looking diffuser. Remember for a rear diffuser to be effective the underbody has to be completely flat coming up to the rear diffuser. Just food for thought.

I have yet to see anyone with one on this forum… the big reason why I bought it was that nobody makes a replica so its rarely seen.

I got my jack back guys sooooooo… let the install begin.
