**pic request** rear diffusers newage
Thinking of a rear diffuser to fit a newage wide track rear bumper has anyone got any pics as I'm unsure if I want plain or carbon look.
Any ideas where to buy a good one or if anyone has one for sale would also be appreciated Martin |

As charly says you cant see much of it unless you look under the car.
I forget what the cost now. Check ht autos website. They fit quite well bu take your time lining it up and drilling and you will be fine |

I found my quite hard ! I dont have that line to follow though . Also its nuts and bolts that fix mine , and a couple were hard to hold due to access.
Here is what u see http://i1199.photobucket.com/albums/...0pics/Rear.jpg Trying to line it up , using a paint can to hold it while i stood back to look :) it seemed to me that where u want it to sit , it didnt follow the shape of the bumper. Man i wish i had that line to follow ! http://i1199.photobucket.com/albums/...s/Diffuser.jpg mine was 2nd hand so price is different . |

Some bolts are hard to get to.
I found it easier to remove the bumper and i have fitted two now. It really is simple though. Easier with 2 people,one to hold difusser and one to mark holes to drill. |

Would all require drilling the bumper? Ht autos arnt that far away from me wonder if they'd got it for me lol
Martin And is really s.h.i.t to fit under car, close to arb plus you need cut tow hook. |
I was on my own , at night , bumper fitted ! Wasnt helping myself much. They are alot bigger than u think , more than a foot deep anyway , so sticking it on isnt an option unless u take your bumper off and let it sit for a while to stick , but there are two brackets need fixed through the spare wheel well when it all fitted back on.
Edit - had to sacrifice my pretty new tow hook as it was a bit overkill. Then i realised after fitting difuser the standard hook woulnt fit either ! Never bothered fitting it as i didnt want to cut a hole , or tow anyone for that matter :) |
I've got a tow hook on at the minute and its mooooohooosive lol! Take it that will have to come off but are you saying the original tow hook will need chopping off too?
Pic of the rear as it is http://i1106.photobucket.com/albums/...41D61BC6BD.jpg Matty is selling a genuine one off a hawk which just sits in the middle thinking that might be the route to take as I think it bolts into existing holes Martin |

Two bolts and remove. No cutting required |
Thats like the one i had fitted ! You can either cuy a hole in the difuser for the one u have and struggle ro fit it over , or refit your origional hook and cut a hole for it. Or just leave your car without a rear tow hook , like me
|
On mine i should cut right side fin for tow hook,it could look not really what im after.
hawk diff looks ****e,sorry but thats true |
Here is our one Varis style custom diffuser

in this pic (on the right of the right hand fin) you can see the bit thats moulded to allow the standard tow hook to remain fitted , but if you ever want to actually tow anyone you need to cut it out to allow a rope in.

Heres a link on ebay at the ones io've been looking at, don't know whether it'd be a good fit or not:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fibreglass...item3ccd950182 Looks to be the same as Juras one on the wagon i think? |

what car have you Kev ? Dont know if it suit a bumper without the bit on each side of the bumper (spats ?) Juras bumper that has the lower lip round to the back wheels takes it well. If you know what i mean ;)

hi martin have swaped my boot over to the boot with the V8 spoiler on and smoothed out lock.
you will see my original hawkeye diffuser bought from import car parts. https://www.scoobynet.com/attachment...ine=1357255031 https://www.scoobynet.com/attachment...ine=1357255031 https://www.scoobynet.com/attachment...ine=1357255031 |
Jm carbon s one is real and IMO real nice
|
Cheers guys been a big help although still Un decided which one to go for lol.
Marty yours looks sweet mate, is this the one that bolts to existing holes? Jura how much modding is required to fit the one you have? Does it require drilling holes or tapping? Wrx9181 where can these be bought and any pics? :thumb: Cheers Martin |
I did list a group buy for the original oe diffuser from import car parts, they was the cheapest I could find at the time and is a direct fit I believe, check out the link in the group buy section bud it should take you straight to the page if you want any info on it :thumb:
