:9mm: Shoot me now- the point to a rear diffusor is? Paricularily at speeds up to speed limit, which I know we all adhere to on this site :D

A bit of advice to people who have yet to fit their diffuser I would recommend not fitting the foam rubber where the diffuser and undertray meet as the joint will open up between the screws as the foam is a bit too thick. The original diffuser has a step at the rear were it joins the undertray and thinner foam so the joint is flush. I had to remove the foam and bend the edge of the undertray straight to get a neat join. Jakepeg, you are right about the unlikely down-force benefits i think most people are fitting it purely for cosmetic reasons. You either like it or you don't I love it :groupjump:

Yes, foam is optional. I fitted mine without but others members wanted it. So it is included the kit. :D
