Looking sexy Matt. Rear end look right now, but a diffuser wouldn't go amiss. Hell I want one too! 8-)

if you are going to do it you will have to make sure you seal the other end of it so air cant get on top of it and have it act like an airbrake or worse rip it off

Should have used duct tape buddy... It'll hold better.

I like it! Did you take any underneath shots? Would you eventually cover the whole underside? When finally get around to doing it I do ;-)

I think that design would work well, although you don't need so many fins (4 will probably suffice, and save weight as importantly ;-) ), and you could probably just finish the turned-up part level with the rear spats, so you can still see them properly.

Love what you're doing to this beast! Uber cool! 8)
