AJI Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I'm thinking of getting a diffuser on my Supra, mainly for cosmetic reasons but also to gain a small amount of stability at the higher speeds. I am guessing there will be a wide range of choices on the market, some probably don't add anything to stability and some probably look horrid, but on the otherhand I have seen some diffusers that make the rear end of the Supra look purposeful and up to date. Could I ask for members to post up some images of their chosen diffusers so I can see what the various designs look like? Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJI Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 Both pics so far look like good examples. Are they easy enough to fit? I'm guessing a few brackets to be installed and then it simply bolts in to place? (Wondering if it can be something I could install myself). I'm leaning more towards the style that Blackie has, but is one available that would fit a stock uk-spec rear end with rear spats? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 DoLuck one will fit stick rear with spats. Blackies is a Trial rear bumper and would require fitting, painting etc. The Shine diffuser is 4 brackets and sone self tapping screws, but would requir removal of the spats to fit properly...in saying that thought the spats could be refitted over the end pieces if you really wanted. Shine one is my choice all day long! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DodgyRog Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 (edited) I fitted my AutoShine recently and I have rear Spats with extended overfenders It was a total pain to fit, but I did it with car still on the floor which didn't help and had to chop up the Carbon side pods, plus I am a perfectionist to a stupid level Some pics towards the end of my thread here http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?244206-My-Widebody-Trd-how-it-was-done-by-ShellShocked-UPDATED-With-New-Pics-04-12-2011 I will post a pic here when I get home Edited February 3, 2012 by DodgyRog (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How close is the exhaust tip to the diffuser there, as it seems within melting range to me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine had to be blended as it was an aweful fit (I think alot are a bad fit) but it worked out okay in the end Your car really does look superb, Blackie. How close is the exhaust tip to the diffuser there, as it seems within melting range to me? Prob just the angle of the piture Drew, Its been like it for a couple of years now with no problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but it's going to make a comeback in 2015, so technically, that makes me and my car the No 1 Uber cool automotive retro-futura fashionista role model.
